Mesa/Boogie 100 Benutzerhandbuch

    This 7 Pin DIN type socket located on the underside of the chassis accepts the Nomad Footcontroller

cable. To use the Footcontroller to select the channels and features;

1.) Connect the Footcontrollers’ attached cable here by lining up the tab on the cable with the detent on the cable sleeve.

2.) Select “Footswitch” on the Channel Select Rotary control located above on the Rear Panel.

3.) Select the desired Channel or Feature.

    The Nomad 45 and 55 require a fuse with a rating of 2.5 amps - while the Nomad 100 utilizes a fuse with a 3 amp rating. All

three models are fitted with Slo-Blo type fuses and should replacement be necessary in the future, replace the Fuse with the same type
and rating. For export models please contact your dealer for specifics regarding your model of Nomads’ power requirements.

Definitely warm up the tubes first with the amplifier’s HI VOLTS switch in its down position. Then
carefully watch the tubes as you flip the HI VOLTS switch to its ON position -  (switch up.) If you see a
tube arc or spark inside, that is definitely the problem and can be remedied by an easy power tube
replacement. In many cases though, the bad tube will only fail intermittently. Watch for a while and if
any tubes start to run red-hot, this is the cause of your original problem. If everything appears OK, tap
on each power tube to reveal the faulty one, because a blown Fuse is nearly always caused by a bad
power tube (s). (See the section on tube maintenance further back in this manual for more assistance
and helpful hints on how to maintain the life of the power tubes).

  Use this Rotary Select switch when you happen to be without your Nomads’ Footcontroller. Rotating this switch

allows you to select a particular channel manually.

However, in order to use the Footswitch Controller this rotary must  be set to the Footswitch position.
