7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your LEKATO Guitar Pedal Board and Isolated Power Supply, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Nessuna alimentazione ai pedali:
  • Ensure the power adapter is securely plugged into both the power supply and a working electrical outlet.
  • Check that the DC power cables are firmly connected to both the power supply outputs and the pedals.
  • Verify that the blue indicator lights on the power supply outputs are illuminated. If a light is off for a specific output, check the cable and pedal connected to that port.
• Rumore/ronzio eccessivo:
  • Confirm that each pedal is connected to an output port that matches its voltage e le attuali esigenze.
  • Assicurarsi che tutti i cavi siano in buone condizioni e adeguatamente schermati.
  • Test pedals individually to identify if a specific pedal is causing the noise.
  • The isolated power supply is designed to minimize noise; if noise persists, check for ground loops in your overall audio setup.
• One Pedal Not Working (Others Are):
  • This could indicate that the short-circuit protection for that specific output has been activated. Disconnect the pedal and its cable from the power supply. Reconnect after a few moments. If the issue persists, test the pedal with a different power source or cable to rule out a pedal malfunction.
  • Ensure the pedal's power requirements (voltage and current) do not exceed the output capacity of the connected port.
