  • Page 7: Output Connection

    This system has also been tested with Roland VDrum controllers as well as 2Box. You can split the trigger output from a drum or cymbal with a "Y" cable and feed both the drum controller and the Mobile Wireless. If the drum is a dual zone with a TRS connector, you will have to choose which trigger to use from the splitter and make a custom cable that only connects to one of the outputs.
  • Page 8 DC Input (Charge Jack) The DC input jack requires 20 volts DC and up to 4 amps maximum if both charging the batteries and driving the maximum length of LED’s supported. It is not recommended to both charge and drive LED’s at the same time since that will generate a lot of heat and will result in the charger shutting down due to battery temperature.
