Output Guide
Before plugging anything into the M242, check that the power requirements of the device match the output capabilities of the M242. Specifically, you should check the following specs indicated near the M242’s output jacks:
Voltage: Pedal’s voltage requirement should match unless the pedal is known to handle alternate supply voltages.
Current: Pedal’s current draw should be less than or equal to the max current spec.
Polarity: M242 provides industry standard positive (+) barrel and negative (-) center polarity.
If you are unsure about the voltage, current, or polarity that your device requires, DO NOT PLUG THE DEVICE INTO THE M242! The following list provides usage examples for each of the output types available on the M242.
Fixed Outputs

as the MXR Distortion+ to unusually high-current pedals, including select
units such as the Line 6 DL4 MkII, Chase Bliss Preamp MKII, and Darkglass ADAM
(4) 9V DC outputs @ 300mA accommodates everything from low-current pedals to
common high-current devices such as MXR digital pedals and select products
from Strymon and Meris
Variable Outputs
(2) switchable 9/12/18V DC outputs @ 500mA for a wide range of pedals
Multi-FX Output
Dedicated 9V DC @ 1.5A output for multi-FX units such as the Line 6 HX Effects

Bracket Assembly & Pedal Board Installation
Please follow all instructions carefully. If you are not experienced with
using a power drill, have the installation performed by a qualified
technician. Dunlop is not responsible for damage to pedalboard or pedals.
Figure A/ Bracket Assembly. Attach brackets to Iso-Brick Pro Power Supply
with four pan-head screws (bag A).
Figure B / Unit Installation. Turning pedalboard over, position Iso-Brick
Pro Power Supply onto rear supports. Mark center of four bracket holes.
Use a 1/8″ (3.0 mm) bit to drill a hole at each mark. Align bracket holes with
pedalboard holes while ensuring that IEC input is unobstructed with as much
clearance as possible. Attach Iso-Brick Pro Power Supply to pedalboard with
four flange-head screws (bag B).
