EARTHBOARD EBII User instructions

Setting up your EBII
Carefully remove all the contents from your box. A standard EBII-SR will include the following:
•1 EARTHBOARD pedalboard
•12 Gravity Boots
•12 Gravity Boot Tethers
•1 Battery & 1 Battery Tether (note: If your order included the Battery Power Pack XL, you will have 1 larger battery & 2 Battery Tethers to plug in.)
•1 Power Station AC Adapter
•1 LifeLine cable
If you ordered additional accessories at the time of your order, check to ensure they are included. Items such as Dummy Boots, ISO Boots, etc…
1. Ensure your battery is charged. We pre-charge all our batteries, but they may need a refresh. First charge should be 24 hours. Indication of a full
charge will be four blue dots on the battery when you press the reset switch on the top left side of your battery.
2. Attach your pedals to the Gravity Boots. (See Below) Dummy Boots if needed. Then place them along with your patch cables on the EBII-SR.
3. Plug the Battery Tether(s) USB end(s) into the battery, then plug into the Battery Port Input(s) on the left side. If power does not come on,
press the reset switch. The LED is a good method to determine if power is on, as well and pedal power lights. You can set your battery on a boot
or set in on the floor beside the board to make more room. You choose.
Additional Information
If you have an ISO Boot, attach to your pedal instead of the standard Gravity Boot. IMPORTANT! Ensure you verify the red feet on the ISO Boot sit
on the rail with the red dot on your EBII. Failure to do this will damage your ISO Boot. This is the same for the Gravity Boots, but we highlight this
on the ISO Boots due to the added sensitive circuitry.
See the Illustration the reverse side for a visual guide to setting up.
Attach red end connector of
the Gravity Booth Tether to
the plug on the underside of
Gravity Boot. See best method
below.
TROUBLE SHOOTING: If the EARTHBOARD LEDs and your
pedals aren’t powered up when you place the Battery on the
steel rails:
•Ensure no metal cable jacks are touching the metal rails in
any way.
•Ensure all the red feet on the Gravity Boots are on the
rails with a red dot.
•Push the reset button on the side of the battery.

TIPS
•When removing a pedal, grasp both the Gravity Boot and
Pedal together.
•When attaching tethers to the Gravity Boot, “pinch”
together as shown in photo to the left.
Building your EARTHBOARD

Battery Ports (2)
Used to plug in 1 or two Battery Tethers to power your EBII with a battery.
Note: A standard battery uses one Battery Tether. The Battery Pack XL uses
2 battery tethers.
Power Ports (2, one on each side)
Used to:
1. Plug in an AC adapter when not using a battery. OR…
2. To power a floor pedal using a LifeLine cable. OR…
3. To power another EARTHBOARD
to connect a floor pedal.

For battery power, 1 or 2 Battery Tethers plug
into the Battery Port(s). 2 Battery Tethers are used with the
Power Pack XL, available when purchasing your EARTHBOARD
or via our accessory option. The Power Pack XL provides higher
power capacity to the EARTHBOARD.
OR
Plug in an AC Adapter to either Power Port on the right side. Power
can also be used to power a floor pedal (as shown) or to connect
power to another EARTHBOARD.
Each effects pedal sits on a Gravity Boot. The Gravity boot has magnetic feet and attaches to the steel rails of the EBII-SR.
(Ensure the RED feet are on the rail with the red dot on the left.) The Gravity Boot Tether is the cable that connects
the Gravity Boot to the pedal for power. For wide pedals that need more support, you can use a Dummy Boot. The Dummy
Boot is exactly like a Gravity Boot, except it has no power circuit. If you have an extra Gravity Boot, you can use that as well.
These are available for purchase as an accessory.
Typical EBII setup
