Important Instructions – PLEASE READ
Read Instructions:
Please read the Patch Box Modular Effects Enclosure manual completely before use and retain for future reference.
IMPORTANT Ribbon Cable Power Information:
The Patch Box combines a set of individual modules to create a complete system. The individual modules can be rearranged,
removed, and replaced with any compatible eurorack modules from Pittsburgh Modular and other manufacturers.
The Patch Box uses a standard 16 pin eurorack power ribbon cable to connect the modules to the internal b12v / -12v /
+5v power supply. Please pay very close attention to the orientation of the ribbon cable when adding and removing modules. The stripe on the ribbon cable
marks -12v. This stripe needs to line up with the -12v pins on the power rail and the -12v pins on the module.
Failure to match up the pins correctly can
result in damage to one or all the modules in the Patch Box.
On the
power rail, the -12v pins are clearly labeled. On the individual modules, the positive and
negative sides of the pin connectors are labeled next to the power header on either the top or bottom of the PCB.
Do
NOT
remove individual modules from the Patch Box while synthesizer is plugged in.
Do
NOT
unplug ribbon cables from the Patch Box or individual modules while the Patch Box is plugged in.
