Battery and external supply
iRig Pro Quattro I/O can be USB bus powered, powered by internal AA batteries (included), external PSU
(included with Deluxe version) or power bank (not included).
iOS (with Lightning) devices: when connected to an iOS device either external PSU, power bank or batteries
are needed. The external PSU (not included) will charge the (Lightning) iOS device’s battery. When both batteries
and PSU are connected, all the power will be supplied by the PSU.
USB devices: typically, when connected to a USB host (MAC, Windows or Android), all the power required is
provided by the host. If the connected host is not capable of providing the required power either batteries or
external supply may be needed.
IMPORTANT NOTE: if the power switch is set to the battery logo and batteries are present, the iRig Pro Quattro
I/O will be powered by the installed batteries even when connected to a USB host that can provide enough
power.
The battery LED’s strip on the top left of the unit will show you the actual level of the installed batteries. When
only the top (HIGH) LED is on, it means that the internal batteries are not currently in use and the unit is powered
by host, external USB or PSU.
Use only the specified AC adaptor you can buy at: www.ikmultimedia.com/irigpsu9175
Use only the specified AC adaptor (iRig PSU 9175) and make sure the line voltage at the installation matches
the input voltage specified on the AC adaptor’s body.
IK Multimedia will not be responsible of any damage caused by usage of any AC adaptor other than the
specified one (iRig PSU 9175).
The usage of AC adaptors other than the specified one (iRig PSU 9175) could compromise the user experience

An external USB power supply or power bank, capable of providing 5V DC and 1A (min), can be used
to power up the iRig Pro Quattro I/O. Performance may vary depending on micro-USB cable used: for
optimal performance a cable size 22AWG or greater is recommended.
IMPORTANT NOTE: when either PSU or power bank is used, this will have priority over any other power source
(host or batteries) independently from the power switch’s position.
