Z-BOARD MANUAL
1. PLUGGING IN
Do not switch your amp on. Plug the 9-pin connector into
the corresponding port on your amp. Ensure that the
VOLUME pedal is floored. This will spare you unnecessary
troubleshooting a little later. Switch your amp on.
2. HANDLING
2.1 BASICS
The range of functions that the Z-Board puts at your
disposal depends on the given model and software version
of your Hughes & Kettner amp. Not all models and versions
support all functions described in this owner’s manual. If
you are in any doubt as to which functions you can control
remotely, please consult the owner’s manual of your amp.
2.2 THE 2 MODES
The Z-Board works in 2 different modes, PRESET MODE and
MODE 2 (effect mode). You can switch between these two
modes using the MODE 2 button.
In PRESET MODE, you can activate presets that have been
programmed on the amp. BANK UP/DOWN accesses the
next higher or lower sound bank (for the record, a bank
consists of a group of five presets). Once you have
selected the desired bank, the 1/6 to 5/10 buttons let you
call up the presets of that bank.
In MODE 2, you can activate and deactivate effects. The
PEDAL ASSIGN button lets you assign individual parameters
of your amp to the WAH WAH pedal. This lets you control
the given parameter in real time.
Beyond that, in this mode the BANK UP/DOWN buttons
serve as PRESET UP/DOWN buttons, meaning that they let
you switch to the next higher or lower preset.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PURCHASE

effects off and on.
The Tap Tempo feature lets you enter and vary delay time
with your foot and the Tuner function puts a digital tuning
device at your disposal.
The rugged Z-Board comes in a robust chassis designed to
withstand the rigors of the road and stage. Not only is its
