Top & Rear Panel Features
1. DOCK – Connect your iPad here
with the appropriate 30-pin or
Lightning™ connector for your
iPad.
2. DC INPUT – Connect the included
power adapter (12V DC, 2A,
center-positive) here, then connect
the adapter to wall power.
3. POWER SWITCH – Turns the iO
Dock II on and off.
4. CABLE RESTRAINT – To prevent
accidentally unplugging, wrap the
power adapter cable around this
restraint.
5. MAIN OUT – Use standard 1/4"
TRS cables to connect these
outputs to a speaker or amplifier
system. The level of these outputs
is controlled by the MAIN knob.
6. DIRECT MONITORING SWITCH –
Set this switch to "ON" to listen
directly to your input sources
without any processing from the
iPad.
7. MIC/LINE INPUT – Connect a microphone or line-level device to this input with an XLR or 1/4" TRS
cable.
8. GUITAR / MIC/LINE INPUT – Connect a microphone, line-level device or guitar to this input with an
XLR or 1/4" TRS cable.
9. GUITAR / MIC/LINE SWITCH – When this switch is in the "GUITAR" position, the channel will serve as
a high-impedance input for connecting guitar or bass instruments. When the switch is in the "MIC/LINE"
position, the channel will accept mic or line-level signals.
10. GAIN – Adjusts the input's gain level.
11. PHANTOM POWER SWITCH – This switch activates and deactivates phantom power. When
activated, phantom power supplies +48V to both XLR mic inputs. Please note that most dynamic
microphones do not require phantom power, while most condenser microphones do. Consult your
microphone's documentation to find out whether it needs phantom power.
12. FOOTSWITCH – Use a standard 1/4" TS or 1/4" TRS dual-button footswitch to send CC Toggle
messages to the iPad. See the Footswitch section of this manual for more details.

If you are using a single-button footswitch, pressing the footswitch for the first time sends a data value of 127 for CC
#14 over Channel 1. Pressing the footswitch for the second time sends a data value of 0 for CC #14 over Channel 1.

If you are using the first button of a dual-button footswitch, pressing the first button for the first time sends a value of
127 for CC #15 over Channel 1. Pressing the first button for the second time sends a value of 0 for CC #15 over
Channel 1.
If you are using the second button of a dual-button footswitch, pressing the second button for the first time sends a
value of 127 for CC #14 over Channel 1. Pressing the second button for the second time sends a value of 0 for CC
#14 over Channel 1.
