Voodoo Lab Pedal Power AC - Manual (Page 4)

System Unit Description
1. AC mains auxiliary. Note the 200 watt maximum rating.
2. AC mains power input jack. This is a standard “IEC-type” connector.
3. Power indicator. This LED indicates the Pedal Power AC system unit is operating.
4. 9VAC output jacks (2). Each output provides up to 600mA.
5. Selectable 9VAC/12VAC output jacks (2 sets). Use either jack from each set to select the
correct voltage. Each output provides up to 1200mA.
AC vs. DC
“DC” stands for Direct Current. This means that the flow of electricity is always in one
direction. DC power connections will always have a polarity (like “center negative” or “tip
positive”) because you need to specify which direction the electrical current should flow.
“AC” stands for Alternating Current. This means the flow of electricity alternates, first in
one direction, then back the other way. Since it always goes in both directions, there is no
polarity and the plugs can’t be wired backwards.
C AUTION : The Voodoo Lab Pedal Power AC should only be used with devices that require
AC power. The device you’re trying to power should be clearly marked as needing 9VAC
or 12VAC. If it isn’t, you need to verify its power requirements. Attempting to power a
DC operated device with an AC power source can cause permanent damage!!
