Manuel d'utilisation de l'alimentation CIOKS DC-4

Introduction

Figure 1: The CIOKS DC-4 Power Supply, a compact black unit designed for powering electronic devices.

The CIOKS DC-4 is a compact and versatile multi-output power supply designed to provide clean, isolated power for various electronic devices, particularly musical effects pedals. It features four isolated DC outlets, each offering selectable voltage options. The DC-4 can function as a standalone unit or as an expander for existing power supplies like the CIOKS DC7.

This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, and maintenance of your CIOKS DC-4 Power Supply.

Caractéristiques principales

• Ultra-low noise operation through multistage filtrage.

• Each outlet offers four selectable voltage options: 9V, 12V, 15V, and 18V DC.
• Capable of delivering 660mA at 9V DC per outlet.
• Flexible power input options:
  • 9V to 24V DC via non-polarized DC socket input.
  • 9V to 12V AC via non-polarized DC socket input.
  • 5V USB-C input for power banks or USB-C adapters.
• Includes mounting hardware for Pedaltrain and Templeaudio boards.
• Compatible with CIOKS Mini GRIP for drill-free mounting on Pedaltrain boards (Mini GRIP sold separately).
• Comes with 5 Flex cables for connecting devices.
• Global overload status LED indicator.

Instructions d'installation

1. Déballage et inspection

Carefully remove the CIOKS DC-4 from its packaging. Inspect the unit for any signs of damage. Ensure all included accessories, such as Flex cables and mounting hardware, are present.

2. Powering the DC-4

The CIOKS DC-4 offers multiple ways to receive power:

• As an Expander (with CIOKS DC7 or similar): Connect the DC-4 to the 24V outlet of a CIOKS DC7 (or a Strymon Zuma 24V output) using a compatible cable.
• Standalone DC Power: Use a 9V to 24V DC power adapter (not included) and connect it to the non-polarized DC socket input.
• Standalone AC Power: Use a 9V to 12V AC power adapter (not included) and connect it to the non-polarized DC socket input.
• Alimentation USB-C : Connect a 5V USB-C power bank or a USB-C wall adapter (not included) to the 5V USB-C input.

Note: Ensure the input power source meets the specified voltaget les exigences actuelles pour éviter d'endommager l'unité.

3. Montage (optionnel)

The DC-4 can be mounted under most pedalboards. Use the included mounting hardware for Pedaltrain and Templeaudio boards. For drill-free mounting on Pedaltrain boards, the CIOKS Mini GRIP (sold separately) can be used.

Mode d'emploi

1. Réglage du volume de sortietages

Each of the four isolated DC outlets has a set of DIP switches to select the desired output voltage (9V, 12V, 15V, or 18V DC). Refer to the markings on the unit for the correct switch positions for each voltage. Ensure the power supply is disconnected from the main power source before adjusting DIP switches.

2. Connexion des appareils

Use the included Flex cables to connect your devices (e.g., effects pedals) to the DC output jacks. Ensure the voltage selected for each outlet matches the voltage requirement of the connected device. Also, verify the polarity of the Flex cable matches your device's requirements. CIOKS Flex cables are typically center-negative, which is standard for most pedals.

• Connect one end of a Flex cable to an output jack on the DC-4.
• Connect the other end of the Flex cable to the power input of your device.
• Répétez l'opération pour tous les appareils.

Prudence: Connecting a device to an incorrect voltage or polarity can cause irreversible damage to the device or the power supply.

3. Mise sous tension

Once all connections are secure and voltages are correctly set, connect the CIOKS DC-4 to its power source. The global overload status LED will indicate operational status. If an overload or short circuit occurs on an output, that specific output will shut down to protect the connected device and the power supply. The LED will indicate a fault condition.

Entretien

• Nettoyage: Nettoyez l'appareil avec un chiffon doux et sec. N'utilisez pas de nettoyants liquides ni de solvants.
• Stockage: Store the DC-4 in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight.
• Inspection des câbles : Periodically inspect all power and Flex cables for any signs of wear or damage. Replace damaged cables immediately.
• Aucune pièce réparable par l'utilisateur : The CIOKS DC-4 contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to open or repair the unit, as this will void the warranty.
