Mounting hardware

We’ve included all the needed hardware to mount the power supply on top or underneath a

Pedaltrain or Temple Audio pedalboard. You can of course also attach it to boards of other brands. Look on CIOKS web site for more information and mounting guides.

Not included accessories

Mains Link Adapter or Mains link cable

This adapter or cable type allows you to link two or more of the link power supplies together and power several units using one single mains power cord.

Mains Adapter – universal

This mains adapter is available as a kit incl. mounting hardware to secure the connection. It converts the IEC C13 mains outlet into two universal wall type mains outlets (one EU/US/UK type and one EU/US type) allowing you to connect two adapters of the plug-in type or any other mains powered appliances of your choice to it and power them via the courtesy outlet.

More Flex cables

To power one pedal using one outlet you simply use a single suitable standard Flex cable and that’s it. In case the plug type or length you need is not included with your unit there’s a big selection of standard Flex cables to choose from and to be ordered separately. In case of an odd voltage or current requirement you might need one of the Special Flex cables available. Please read more about these and how to use them on CIOKS web site. They really open up for even more versatility and flexibility in terms of what you can power with your unit.

Powering different pedal types

This issue is different for every individual rig, therefore please e-mail your specific questions regarding powering your pedals using CIOKS power supplies directly to support@cioks.com.

Power Supply for Effect Pedals

User’s Manual

reversion 1.1 – March 2017

Introduction

Since 1991 the Danish company CIOKS has been providing guitar and bass players with reliable power supplies dedicated for effect pedals. After our very first product CIOKS Baby power supply was out in 1991, the Big John and Double Jack were launched in year 1995. Three more units were introduced in 2007 forming our Standard range of dedicated power supplies for effect pedals.

To follow our slogan "More power, more features, more design", we have in 2013 launched CIOKS link range. Three of the Standard range products have been dramatically upgraded and went through a spectacular face-lift, where the only thing left are their original names. CIOKS Schizophrenic link, Big John link and AC Rider link were our new babies in year 2013. Small size, yet very powerful and each model with an individual character and force. The unique mains link feature allows you to merge two or more power supplies giving you the possibility to create a power supply bank matching your individual needs. Just one single mains power cord will power two or three power supplies, where you always have a courtesy AC mains outlet available on the last unit. You can of course also use them as standalone power supplies, getting just one to start with and extend with time.

CIOKS Big John link has its 6 outlets configured in 4 isolated sections. The first four outlets are divided in two isolated sections, which yield 100mA each and offer voltages 9 and 12V. The last two isolated high current outlets put out a max. current of 400mA each at voltages 9 or 12V.
