4. Nastavitev

Follow these steps to set up your STRICH SPS-10 power supply:

1. Priključite napajalnik: Plug the included 18V/1A power adapter into the DC IN 18V input on the SPS-10 unit. Then, plug the adapter into a standard AC power outlet (100V-240V).
2. Connect Effect Pedals: Use the provided DC power cables to connect your effect pedals to the corresponding output jacks on the SPS-10. Ensure you match the voltage and current requirements of your pedals to the correct output.
• Outputs 1-6: DC 9V 100mA
• Outputs 7-8: DC 9V 500mA
• Output 9: DC 12V 100mA
• Output 10: DC 18V 100mA
3. Preverite polariteto: Most guitar pedals use a center-negative polarity. The SPS-10 outputs are standard center-negative. If your pedal requires center-positive polarity, use one of the included polarity reversal cables.
4. Vklop: Once all connections are secure, turn on the power supply. The blue LED indicators above each output will illuminate, indicating power is being supplied.

5. Navodila za uporabo

The STRICH SPS-10 is designed for straightforward operation:

• Vklop/izklop: Use the main power switch on the unit to turn the power supply on or off.
• LED indikatorji: Each output features a blue LED light. These LEDs illuminate when power is supplied to the corresponding output. If an output experiences a short circuit, its LED will flash, indicating a fault.
• Independent Outputs: Due to the isolated design, a short circuit in one output will not affect the operation of other connected pedals. This ensures continuous performance for the rest of your pedalboard.

6. Lastnosti

• 10 Isolated Outputs: Provides clean and stable power to up to 10 effect pedals simultaneously, preventing unwanted noise and interference between pedals.
• Vsestranski voltage Možnosti: Includes 6 x 9V 100mA, 2 x 9V 500mA, 1 x 12V 100mA, and 1 x 18V 100mA outputs to power a wide range of pedals.
• Zaščita pred kratkim stikom: Each output is independently protected. In case of a short circuit, only the affected output will shut down, allowing other pedals to continue functioning.
• Zasnova vezja za zmanjšanje šuma: Built-in powerful noise filter minimizes hum and unwanted noise, ensuring a clear audio signal.
• Modri ​​LED indikatorji: Bright blue LEDs indicate the operational status of each output and flash to signal a short circuit.
• Vzdržljiva konstrukcija: Housed in a high-quality, heat-dissipating aluminum alloy material, making it light, portable, and robust for stage in studijska uporaba.

8. Odpravljanje težav

If you encounter issues with your SPS-10, please refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Ni napajanja pedal:
  • Ensure the 18V power adapter is securely plugged into both the SPS-10 unit and a working AC outlet.
  • Check that the main power switch on the SPS-10 is in the 'ON' position.
  • Verify that the DC power cables are firmly connected to both the SPS-10 outputs and your pedals.
• Specific Pedal Not Working (LED Flashing):
  • A flashing blue LED indicates a short circuit in that specific output. Disconnect the pedal from that output.
  • Check the pedal's power input for any damage or debris.
  • Prepričajte se, da je glasnost pedalatage and current requirements do not exceed the output's specifications.
  • Test the pedal with another power source if available to confirm the pedal itself is functional.
• Neželen hrup/brnenje:
  • While the SPS-10 has noise reduction, ensure all cables are properly shielded and not running parallel to AC power cables.
  • Verify that all pedals are connected to their appropriate isolated outputs.
  • Test individual pedals to identify if a specific pedal is generating excessive noise.
• Napačna polarnost: If a pedal is not working and you suspect a polarity issue, use the provided polarity reversal cable.
