The RockBoard Mini Mounting MOD DC is a versatile power mounting solution designed for RockBoard pedalboards. It provides a convenient DC 2.1 x 5.5 mm barrel thru jack, allowing you to access your power supply without complex cable routing. It is specifically designed to fit into the existing RockBoard LED Light mounting holes.
Mounting
- Turn your RockBoard pedalboard upside down to access the mounting area.
- Insert the Mini Mounting MOD DC into the large hole intended for the RockBoard LED Light. Align the two threaded bushings with the mounting holes.
- Use the included screws to hand-tighten the unit securely to the pedalboard.
Connection
- Connect one of the internal sockets of the Mini Mounting MOD DC to your multi-power supply.
- Connect an adequately dimensioned power supply unit to the external power connection on the MOD. Your system is now ready for operation.
Additional applications
Because the unit uses through-connections between the inner and outer barrel jacks, it can be used in reverse to supply power to external pedals, such as Wah pedals. You can also use DC power supply cables or daisy chain distributors instead of a multi-power supply to distribute power to your pedals. Note that outputs A and B are connected in parallel.
Safety and warnings
To avoid damage to your equipment, observe the following precautions:
- The total current consumption of all devices on the board must not exceed the output current of the connected multi-power supply or the power adapter used for daisy-chaining.
- Always ensure that the voltage and polarity of the external power supply match the specific requirements of your multi-power supply or pedals.
Practical help
Common problems
