1 – Read and keep these instructions.
2 – Heed all warnings and follow all instructions.
3 – WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture. Do not use this apparatus near water.
4 – Clean only with a dry cloth.
5 – WARNING: To prevent excessive temperature rise, operate product only in free air with unrestricted ventilation. Do not install in confined spaces or near heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus that produce heat.
6 – Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a grounding prong. The wide blade or third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit your outlet, consult an electrician for the replacement of the obsolete outlet.
7 – Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
8 – Unplug the apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.
9 – The appliance coupler (or attachment plug) is the mains disconnect device and should remain readily accessible when amplifier is in use.
10 – Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
11 – This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
12 – Changes or modifications made by the user that are not expressly approved by the manufacturer may void your authority to operate the amplifier.
CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT REMOVE THE COVER. NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
WARNING: To prevent fire or electric shock, do not expose this equipment to rain or moisture.
Plug one end of the supplied cable into either one of the jacks on the foot controller until you hear a “click”. Plug the other end of the cable into the footswitch jack on the rear of a MicroPro Series amplifier. To remove the cable, press the plastic tab on the plug down to unlock it. Should you lose or damage the included cable, you can substitute a normally wired network cable with RJ-45 plugs.
(You can use one foot controller to switch two amplifiers at the same time by connecting each amplifier to a jack on the foot controller.)
With the foot controller attached, you now have switchable control over six of the amplifier’s functions. For better orientation, the illuminated labels above footswitchable functions turn on and off along with the foot controller LEDs.
When the footswitch is engaged (Blue LED on), the FULLQ setting is activated. When the switch is off (LED off), the active mode will revert to the setting indicated by the knob. If the knob is set to FULLQ, no change will occur.
When the footswitch is engaged (Red LED on), the gain boost is activated in accordance with the settings on the amp. If the Boost Voice Selector is set to OFF, the footswitch will not activate the boost function.
When the footswitch is engaged (Amber LED on), the Overdrive Limiter is activated. The amount of limiting is set by the amplifier’s LIM knob. If the LIM knob is at its minimum position (fully counter-clockwise), no limiting is applied
When the footswitch is engaged (Amber LED on), the Tremolo is activated. If the TREM knob is at its minimum position (fully counter-clockwise), the Tremolo will remain off.
When the footswitch is engaged (Green LED on,) the Reverb is activated. The amount of Reverb is set by the REV knob. If the REV knob is at its minimum position (fully counter-clockwise), Reverb will remain off.
When the footswitch is engaged (Amber LED on), the Effects Loop will be activated and the signal path will be switched from the internal path to the RETURN jack. If there is no plug inserted into the RETURN jack, the FX LOOP will remain bypassed (no change will be heard).
NOTE: All of the amplifier functions noted above are enabled without a foot controller connected. The foot controller allows each function to be bypassed as desired.
| Symptom | Action |
| No lights | • Ensure that both sides of the cable are fully inserted. The plugs should “click” into the jacks locking them in place. •If the switch does not activate the LED, you may have a faulty foot controller. Please seek service. |
| One or more switches do not active their functions | •If the MODE or BOOST knobs are set to their default positions (FULLQ and OFF respectively), the footswitch cannot switch these functions. •If the LIM, TREM and REV knobs are set to their minimum setting, the footswitch will not activate these features. •If there is no plug inserted into the RETURN jack, the FX LOOP switch will not activate the Effects Loop. •BOOST, LIM and TREM are not available when in the VOL1 mode. |
The MicroPro Deluxe Foot Controller is compatible only with Quilter MicroPro Series amplifiers. Do not use the foot controller with any other devices. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the foot controller. Attempts to repair the device yourself may result in voiding of the warranty.
If the device is exposed to a liquid spill or excessive moisture, unplug it immediately and allow to dry thoroughly before using.
