), 

and keep the four sets nearby in the order removed.

*  If the wing bolt, the spring washer and/or the washer are separated from each other, set 

them as illustrated in Figure 19-(

  Connecting the pads to the Trigger Module

Connect the output jacks of the pad and the input jacks of the trigger module 
with the 9-channel snake cable.

Figure 26: DTXPL (Rear panel)

ON

Figure 27: 9-channel Snake Cable

Each straight plug is labeled indicating the input jacks to which they are to be connected.

1

  Insert the straight plugs (Figure 27-

(a)

) of the 9-channel snake cable into the input jacks on 

the rear panel of the trigger module. For standard assembly, connect the straight plugs to 
the input jacks in accordance with the indication on each label.

Figure 28: Diagram of standard connection

2

  Insert the L-shaped plugs (Figure 27-

(b)

) of the 9-channel snake cable into each 

corresponding pad. It is recommended to connect the cables in order from numbers 

q

 to 

o

 shown in Figure 28 (from the shortest cable to the longest cable).

  Connecting to a power source

Connect the AC adaptor to the DTXPL.

  Attach the AC adaptor to connect to a power 

source. 
Insert the DC plug into the power supply jack 
(

) and twist the cable around the cable clip 

(

  Use the cable bands to bind the cables to the 

pipes at the six points shown with the circles.

*  Leaving the cable slacked may inter-

fere with your performance.

The assembly is now completed.

To check the actual sound, connect the unit with an amplifi ed speaker or a headphone before turning on the 
power.
