TC Electronic Blacksmith - Manual (Page 18)

1 – MAINS IN – Power In & POWER switch
Make sure that the voltage of the power grid you are connecting
to matches your BLACKSMITH model.
The 115 V model can handle voltages between 100 V and 120 V.
The 230 V model can handle voltages between 220 V and 240 V.
The ground pin of the power supply unit must be
connected in order to avoid voltage differences between
e.g. the PA and the BLACKSMITH.
2/3 – SPEAKER OUT & LOAD IMPEDANCE SWITCH
Use the Speakon SPEAKER OUT connectors for connecting
speaker cabinets. Use quality speaker cables only. Do NOT use
instrument cables!
If you intend to use Blacksmith with a 2 Ohm cabinet
configuration, please select the 2 Ohm mode using the small
switch placed next to the Speakon connectors.
(Default setting for the switch is 4 Ohm.)
Configurations of 4 Ohm and above should be run in the 4 Ohm
mode. Selecting the wrong impedance mode will not damage
your amp, but may cause BLACKSMITH to go into Protection
Mode, thus muting the speaker outputs. Please see the general
Protection Mode Section for further information.
