Installation Continued
3. Solder the Magnetic pickup hot wire to the circuit board
The pad for the hot wire is located on the same side of the board as the vol-
ume pot. This pad, labeled “M”, is on the left edge of the board, 3/4”
(19mm) from the bottom of the board. A common system ground is located
on the opposite side of the board, on a second pad marked “G”, adjacent to
the Piezo ground. Since there is room for only one wire on this pad, we sug-
gest that you tie all grounds to the body of the Magnetic volume pot, and
run a jumper wire to the ground pad on the circuit board.
NOTE:
If you install The Powerchip with active magnetic pickups (such as
EMG), the Powerchip and the active pickups will share the same battery.
Connect the positive battery wire from the magnetics to the +9V pad on the
Powerchip. Connect the negative battery wire from the magnetics to termi-
nal #1 on the nine pin jack.
