Morley ABY Owner's Manual

THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING A MORLEY® SWITCH.

YOU NOW OWN THE BEST SWITCH MADE!

Please take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the features of your new switch. With common sense handling, it will last for years. We hope you enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed building it. Feel free to call on us if you have any questions, comments or suggestions.

WARRANTY All Morley® pedals are warranted for two years from date of purchase. There is no need to register your pedal for warranty. Simply retain your original dated purchase receipt. To obtain warranty service, contact the store where purchased, call Morley 24 hours a day at 800-284-5172 (ext 15) or email us at tech@morleypedals.com

CONNECTIONS 9V: Use only Morley's 9 VDC 300 milliamp regulated adapter. Center Polarity is negative. IN: Input jack. Plug instrument into this jack using 1/4" guitar cable. OUT: Connect amplifier to this jack using a 1/4" guitar cable. NOTE: You'll find cords fit very tightly into the input/output jacks. The tight fit helps prevent the cord from being accidentally unplugged. Make sure cords are completely plugged in for best results.

AC ADAPTER All Morley pedals use Morley's 9VDC 300 milliamp regulated adapter. Center pin polarity is negative. Using a nonregulated adapter could cause a low frequency hum in your amplifier. Using an adapter with the wrong polarity may damage the pedal.

BATTERY USE All Morley pedals are designed to use one 9V battery when not using an adapter. Battery access is on the bottom cover via our "Quick Clip" Battery door. We suggest you use a good quality alkaline battery. To prolong battery life, unplug your cord completely from the input jack when not using the pedal. When the pedal is not used for extended periods, remove the battery from the pedal or replace it every six months to prevent leakage problems.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT The ABY is a psssive device (meaning it will function without power. The 9V battery or 9V adapter are used only to light the LED indicators. Since the battery is only used to light the LEDS the battery life is extroardinary. In fact, you can use 9V batteries that are "dead" from other pedals and you will find they last for many weeks in the ABY.

ABY SELECTOR / COMBINER INSTRUCTIONS

The ABY was designed with two basic set-ups in mind:

1) Routing one input signal to two output paths (see Example #1)

2) Routing two input signals to one output path (see Example #2)

Example

GROUND LOOP NOISE? Hooking two

amps together via an ABY box can

sometimes create a LOOP ANTENNA

which causes hum (also known as

Ground Loop Hum, 60Hz Hum or 60

Cycle Hum, 50Hz in Europe). This is not

caused by the ABY but by the connection

of two amp grounds via the ABY. If this

does occur, it can be easily corrected.

Visit www.ebtechaudio.com for

information on eliminating Ground Loop

Hum & Noise with our Hum X or outside

North America, the Hum Eliminator.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE THE ABY ON A POWERED SPEAKER LINE! YOU WILL DAMAGE THE ABY, THE AMP AND THE SPEAKER(S).

ABY SPECIFICATIONS POWER: 9V Battery (for LED Indication ONLY - ABY will function without a battery) LED INDICATORS: Channel switched on or off.

DIMENSIONS: 5.25" L x 3.25" W x 2" H
