guitar pedal wrong polarity Cable

guitar pedal wrong polarity CableThe Cable Green Adapter features a right angle Male Barrel Plug with a larger, 2. 5 mm Internal Diameter and reverse polarity. It can be used to power Line 6 Modeler* pedals from the Power All. It can also be used with pedals from other manufacturers such as Electro Harmonix, Digitech, etc. that have a larger; 2. 5 mm pin on their power jack. The C GN R offers the following features: 1 x Female Barrel jack to connect to Power All or other power source

 The Cable-Green Adapter features a right-angle Male Barrel Plug with a larger, 2.5 mm Internal Diameter and reverse polarity. It can be used to power Line 6 Modeler* pedals from the Power-All. It can also be used with pedals from other manufacturers such as Electro-Harmonix, Digitech, etc. that have a larger; 2.5 mm pin on their power jack.

The C-GN/R offers the following features:

• 1 x Female Barrel jack to connect to Power-All or other power source (C-M/M & C-BL Cable may be required to connect C-GN to brick-style power supplies)
• 1 x right-angle Male Barrel plug with 2.5 mm I.D. and reverse polarity to connect to pedals or other cables
• Spring-loaded male plugs to reduce chance of disconnection
• 26-gauge Cable with oil-resistant vinyl sheath
• 12” (approx. 305 mm) Cable length between plugs
• NEW Lo-Pro™ Plug design offers the smallest plug dimensions possible in order to save space on your pedalboard and to make connection to your pedals quick, easy and efficient

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Female Barrel Jack (1): 5.5 mm O.D.; 2.1 mm I.D.
• Right-Angle Male Barrel Plug (1): 5.5 mm O.D.; 2.5 mm I.D.; 10 mm barrel length
• Cable: 26-gauge, OFC with oil-resistant vinyl sheath
• 12” (approx. 305 mm) Cable length between plugs

TIPS:

• Output polarity of Cable-Green’s Male Barrel Plug will be the opposite polarity of the source connected to the Female Barrel Jack (i.e. if the power source is tip-negative, then C-GN output polarity will be tip-positive)
• Connect C-M/M Cable to C-GN’s Female Barrel Jack to connect to brick-style power supplies or other sources with Female Power Output Jacks
• Use Cable-Yellow for pedals that require the same polarity as the source connected to the Female Barrel Jack such as the Line 6 HX Stomp— (i.e. if the power source is tip-negative, then C-Yellow output polarity will be tip-negative)
• Use C-Cap to cover unused Male Barrel Plug to prevent short-circuits

NOTES:

1. *This cable was designed to work with the Power-All and all Line 6 Modeler series pedals, such as the original DL4 Delay Modeler or FM4 Filter Modeler.  This cable is NOT configured to work with the new Line 6 Helix/HX series of pedals nor the MkII version of the DL4 Delay Modeler.  These pedals require CENTER-NEGATIVE power, but still require the 2.5mm pin of the predecessors.  With these updated specs for Line 6, we've introduced the CABLE-YELLOW Right-Angle Line 6 HX Power Adapter (2.1mm to 2.5mm) to be used with our Power-All ECO-Dapter power system.

2. Some pedals that require tip-positive polarity at their power input are actually wired with a positive ground to chassis. Some examples of this are the Fuzz Face & Tonebender and many boutique pedals based on these designs.

Pedals with this ground configuration cannot be powered from a series power source (e.g. a Daisy Chain) along with pedals that have a negative ground to chassis.

In this case, the GH-1 Ground Hound could be used on the positive-ground pedal to allow it to be powered along with negative-ground to chassis pedals off the same Daisy Chain.

*Sum of current draws of pedals used should not exceed maximum output current of Power Supply.
