Connectors and controls
1. Pickup:
this component converts the vibrations of the strings into an electrical signal
that is processed by the PU 100 and sent to the AXON.
2. Connector socket for the 13-pin cable (AXON AXK 100):
this is the signal output of
the PU 100. Use the 13-pin cable to connect this socket to the INPUT socket on the
AXON. The cable carries the signals of the individual strings from the PU 100 pickup
as well as the signal from the conventional instrument output. The cable also carries
power for the PU 100, as well as the control signals generated by the UP/DOWN but-
tons and the volume control on the PU 100.
3. Guitar input socket:
the PU 100 receives the signal from the conventional pickups of
the instrument via this socket. Use one of the short cables supplied with the PU 100 to
connect this socket to the 1/4" output socket of the instrument.
4. 3 status LEDs:
this LED indicates in which position the GUITAR/MIX/SYNTH selector
is. Also you see that the PU 100 is receiving power from the AXON via the 13-pin ca-
ble.
5. GUITAR / MIX / SYNTH selector:
this switch determines the signal to be sent to the
AXON:
G
(Guitar): the output contains only the signal from the conventional pickups (MIDI
Volume is set to “0”)
M
(Mix):
both the direct guitar signal and synthesizer signals (MIDI) are sent.
S
(Synth):
only the synthesizer signals (MIDI) are sent, not the conventional guitar
signal.
