6. Упутство за употребу

6.1 Volume Pedal Operation

When used as a volume pedal, press the pedal forward to increase the volume and pull it back to decrease the volume. The pedal's sweep controls the signal level. Note that the pedal's mechanical design may result in a non-linear volume response, with a more pronounced change in the middle of the pedal's travel. The minimum volume may not reach a complete silence (0%), potentially resting at approximately 20% of the signal level even at its lowest setting.

6.2 Expression Pedal Operation

When connected to a compatible device as an expression pedal, the pedal's movement will control the assigned parameter. The range of control is determined by the settings on your external device. Adjust the pedal's position to achieve the desired effect. The control knob on the pedal allows for fine-tuning of the expression range or minimum value, depending on the specific implementation.

7. Одржавање

• Clean the pedal regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Ensure all cables are securely connected before and during use.
• Store the pedal in a dry, cool place when not in use.

КСНУМКС. Решавање проблема

8.1 No Sound or Intermittent Signal

• Check all cable connections. Ensure they are fully inserted and not damaged.
• Проверите да ли је ваш инструмент и ampЛифиер ради исправно.
• Ensure the power supply meets the pedal's specifications (9V DC, 300mA).

8.2 Non-Linear Volume/Expression Response

• The VM13ZUM pedal's mechanical design may inherently produce a non-linear response, with a more rapid change in the middle of the pedal's travel. This is a characteristic of the product.
• For expression functions, check the settings on your external device to see if the response curve can be adjusted.

8.3 Pedal Does Not Reach Full Volume or Minimum Volume

• The pedal is designed with a minimum volume that may not reach complete silence (approximately 20% of the signal). This is an intended characteristic.
• Ensure the control knob (if present and adjustable for minimum volume) is set correctly.
