Setting Up The Pedals For Firebird X - Gibson Firebird X Owner's Manual

Both pedals have a standard 9V battery connector located in the battery compartment, and
a separate cavity that fits a 9V battery. If a 9V battery is connected, it will work as a
backup power source if the standard rechargeable battery discharges below its shutdown
voltage; switchover to the 9V battery occurs automatically. However, switching on the
pedal with only a 9V battery is not supported.

the Switchboard, from the bottom of the Pedalboard.
2. Link the underside of the Pedalboard and Switchboard using the Pedal Power/Data
Connector.
