Follow these steps to set up your Donner DP-1 Guitar Power Supply:
- Connect the Main Power Adapter: Plug the included DC 18V power adapter into the 'DC IN 18V' input on the power supply unit. Connect the adapter to a standard AC power outlet (100V-240V).
- Identify Output Requirements: Nquma ivolumutage (9V, 12V, or 18V) and current (mA) requirements for each of your guitar pedals. Refer to your pedal's manual or specifications.
- Connect Pedals to Outputs: Use the provided power cables to connect your pedals to the corresponding outputs on the DP-1 unit. The outputs are labeled as follows:
- Outputs 1-7: DC 9V, 100mA
- Output 8: DC 9V, 500mA
- Output 9: DC 12V, 100mA
- Output 10: DC 18V, 100mA
- Hlela Amakhebuli: Arrange the power cables neatly to prevent tangling and accidental disconnections.
Ensure the polarity of the power cable matches your pedal's requirements. A polarity reversal cable is included for pedals requiring center-positive polarity (standard is center-negative).

3. Iziqondiso Zokusebenza
Once connected, the Donner DP-1 is ready for use. The unit operates automatically when connected to power.
- Vula: The unit powers on automatically when the DC 18V adapter is plugged into a live AC outlet and connected to the DP-1.
- Izinkomba ze-LED eziluhlaza: Each output features a bright blue LED. When a pedal is correctly connected and receiving power, its corresponding LED will illuminate.
- Short Circuit Indication: In the event of a short circuit on an output, the corresponding blue LED will turn off, indicating a fault. The independent short-circuit protection ensures that other outputs remain operational.
- Ukunciphisa Umsindo: The built-in noise reduction circuit helps maintain a clean audio signal, minimizing hum and interference.

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Donner DP-1 Guitar Power Supply, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Ukuhlanza: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the unit. Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish or internal components.
- Isitoreji: When not in use for extended periods, store the power supply in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Ukunakekelwa Kwekhebula: Regularly inspect all power cables for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage. Replace damaged cables immediately to prevent electrical hazards or signal issues.
- Ukungenisa umoya: Ensure the unit has adequate ventilation to prevent overheating. Do not block the ventilation holes.
5. Ukuxazulula izinkinga
If you encounter any issues with your Donner DP-1 Guitar Power Supply, refer to the following troubleshooting tips:
- No Power to Unit:
- Check if the DC 18V power adapter is securely plugged into both the DP-1 unit and a working AC outlet.
- Verify that the AC outlet is live by plugging in another device.
- No Power to a Specific Pedal (LED off):
- The unlit blue LED indicates a short circuit or overload on that specific output.
- Disconnect the pedal from the affected output. If the LED turns back on, the issue is with the pedal or its cable.
- Check the power cable connecting the pedal to the DP-1 for damage or incorrect polarity.
- Ensure the pedal's voltage and current requirements do not exceed the output's specifications.
- Excessive Noise/Hum:
- While the DP-1 has noise reduction, ensure all cables are properly shielded and not running parallel to AC power cables.
- Verify that all pedals are connected to outputs matching their voltage and current requirements. Mismatched power can sometimes introduce noise.
- Test pedals individually to identify if a specific pedal is the source of the noise.
