Having all your gear plugged into the ROCKN STOMPN power strip and always ready, standing
by, waiting for you, is what makes your ROCKN STOMPN power strip so KOOL. Keep in mind
that when you are not practicing and your ROCKN STOMPN power strip is in standby mode,
your gear is completely disconnected from the power grid; there is no way lightning or a
voltage surge can get to your gear
Multiple Amps
When Powering Multiple Amps try to s
pread the load and reduce the inrush of current. Plug
each amp into its own duplex receptacle #4,#3,#2 and sequentially turn on your gear and with
your effects plugged into
duplex
receptacle #1.
Examples: A lead guitarist’s stereo setup with one amplifier plugged into duplex receptacle #4
and the second amplifier into receptacle #3 and all his other accessories into the remaining
duplex receptacles.
There is no reason a guitar and PA amplifiers could not be plugged into one ROCKN STOMPN
power strip. A Bass Amp is plugged into duplex #4, P.A. Amp into Duplex #3, Guitar Players
Amp into duplex #2, P.A. Mixer into duplex #2, And two peddleboards into duplex #1. Set the
"on delay" at around 3 or 4 seconds, Set "off delay" between 6 and 12 seconds.
More Amps than that! You can double up and have each duplex receptacle turn on two amps.
Not a problem. Just start with duplex receptacle #4 then #3 then #2.
POWERED SPEAKERS
Multiple powered speakers are another great application for the RS-4. Example: An organist
with eight powered speakers
In the first 3 duplex receptacles he has 6 Mackie HR824s,
rated at 150 Watts each, total of 900 Watts. In the fourth duplex receptacle he has two
M-Audio SBX10 subs, rated at 250 Watts each, total of 500. So, as you can see, he is
running a total of 1,400 Watts, about 12 amps all off of one 110v house outlet with no
problems. He has the time delayed at about 3 seconds setting.
SWITCH GUARD
Simply for peace of mind, should you feel the need, we have included an optional switch guard
in the poly bag with this manual. The switch guard installation simply requires careful use of a
9/16 inch socket wrench (preferably a deep socket) with an extension. Use the extension like a
screwdriver handle. Should a ratchet handle be required; the torque on the 9/16 inch nut is
minimal. First remove the 9/16 nut. The switch guard has an anti-rotation key in the switch
