psarkissian Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Yes,... the cable is a TRS, not TS. There should be something about this in the manual and the Line 6 Knowledge Base. TRS = Tip/Ring/Sleeve, where one is for the signal, the other is for the DC supply and the sleeve is the common. There should be directions with it on how to connect it.

Charlie_Watt Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 This unit came with the original variax 500 and acoustic 700. I have two of them. Never use them. I use VDI or battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punkyboy Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 ok thank you Charlie why don't you use them?? not good? tx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Watt Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I don't use them because I mostly use a Pod HD500x which has a VDI input that powers the Variax. When using directly to my amps, I just use the battery. I get lots of playing time with the battery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAVEBLISS Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Help !!! I have two Line 6 Variax Cabled Power Kit boxes both have failed the red power light is on some time then fails. No output volts found at TSR jack or XLR. Anybody got repair knowledge of this board. The circuit board is littered with micro components and chips. I don´t have a clue how to repair it. https://www.amazon.es/Line-VARIAX-LIN-980340105-alimentación/dp/B006HKEMEW No signs of damage or burnt out components, just aged ? Maybe the capacitors are now old circuit seem to be made 2003/4 came from a 2006 Variax 700 acoustic purchased in UK auction. Sure it was working when it arrived but now just a door stop, Can anybody supply repair info or circuit diagram so my computer shop and take a look at it. Thanks Dave. blissmusic@hotmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
