3 Getting started
3.1
Installation
Connect your pedal to the USB MIDI Pedal Controller and the latter to a USB port on your
computer (No software or driver installation is required). It will show as a “Pedal Controller
X.Y-ZZZZZZZZ” in your applications, where X.Y is the firmware version and ZZZZZZZZ is
the unique serial number. The device is fully functional with the default settings (although
depending on your pedal you might need to invert the jack polarity using the configuration
utility, see below)
WARNING!
Only connect passive pedals to the USB MIDI Pedal Controller. Pedals that
are powered by mains supply, chargers or batteries must NOT be used. TEControl AB does
not assume any responsibility for damage to any equipment (including the Pedal Controller
itself) if these instructions are not followed.
3.2
Default settings
The USB MIDI Pedal Controller comes pre-configured with default settings and will work
straight-out-of-the box. The default settings are as follows:
• Linear sensitivity
• Input and output ranges set to maximum
• Attack and decay filters set to minimum
• MIDI Message set to Control Change
• MIDI CC11
• MIDI Channel 1
• Jack Polarity: Tip=Wiper, Ring=Supply
