User Manual for RockBoard MOD V2 Patchbays

Quick guide from the manual

The RockBoard MOD V2 series are all-in-one patchbays designed to organize connections to and from your effects setup. They provide a central access point to your pedalboard, tidying up your cabling. Please note that these devices are passive routing tools; they do not require power and do not distribute power to your pedals.

Device Overview

There are three versions of the MOD V2 available, each with different connection configurations:

• MOD 1 V2: Features TRS and XLR connections.
• MOD 2 V2: Features TRS, MIDI, and USB connections.
• MOD 3 V2: Features TRS and Stereo XLR connections.

Mounting on a RockBoard Pedalboard

The MOD V2 can be mounted directly into the dedicated MOD slot found on most RockBoard pedalboards (except DUO 2.0 and 2.1).

1. Remove the rubber frame from the pedalboard's MOD slot.
2. Turn the pedalboard upside down.
3. Use a TX10 screwdriver to screw the self-tapping mounting screws into the pre-drilled holes. The screws will cut their own threads, so the first few rotations may feel stiff. Be careful not to screw them in at an angle.
4. Once the tips of the screws protrude, remove the screws.
5. Load the MOD into the slot from the front and screw in the mounting screws until the front plate is flush with the board.
6. Secure the unit by screwing on the counter nuts from the back. If access is difficult, remove the additional support brace.

Mounting on a Non-RockBoard Pedalboard

For third-party pedalboards, you must detach the front plate to mount the unit flush.

1. Use a PH2 Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws and release the front plate from the MOD housing.
2. Apply self-adhesive hook tape to the underside of the MOD housing.
3. Apply self-adhesive loop tape to the desired position on your pedalboard.
4. Attach the MOD to the pedalboard using the hook and loop fasteners.

Safety and Environmental Precautions

To ensure the longevity of your device and prevent damage, adhere to the following guidelines:

• Do not use the equipment near water.
• Prevent liquids or objects from falling into the unit.
• Do not apply excessive force to switches or controls.
• Avoid exposing the unit to direct sunlight, strong magnetic fields, extreme temperatures, high humidity, or excessive dust.
• Do not subject the device to shock or vibration.
• Always use a 3-pin (grounded) power cord if your setup requires one; do not use a 2-pin (non-grounded) cord.
