POWER SUPPLY

This unit can be powered with a 9VDC negative tip power 

supply with the standard Boss type 2.1mm connector. 

Current supply should be a minimum of 100 mA just to 

leave a safety margin for the DC adapter.

Make sure you use a good quality power supply and avoid 

using generic SMPS type adapter which can induce high 

pitched noise to the audio.

                 CAUTION:

                 If used improperly, batteries may explode or leak   

                 and cause damage or injury.

- The use of an incorrect type of battery can void the 

safeguard mechanisms of the device (for example, in the 

case of some lithium battery types)

- Batteries must never be recharged, heated, taken apart, 

or thrown into fire or water.

- Do not expose the unit to extremely high temperatures, 

direct sunlight or other devices that radiate heat, as it may 

lead to an explosion or leakage of flammable liquid or gas.

Put the 9V battery in the position showed in the 

diagram. Make sure to use a good quality alkaline 

battery to ensure the longest time of operation.

Tight back the lid with the 4 screws and reassembly 

the Smart Track

®

 system.
