We recommend connecting any home theater media center computers,
or appliances containing a hard drive into the Always On outlets. We
recommend connecting home theater projection equipment which
require a cool down period to the Always On outlets. This will prevent
damage to, and extend the life of your home theater projection lamps.
Embertec Emberstrip® 8AV+ has 2 power saving functions
1.
Standby Powerdown automatically detects and saves power
wasted when equipment is left in standby mode, by switching the
power off to the equipment.
2.
Active Powerdown® automatically switches the power off to Audio
Visual (AV) equipment connected to the Power Saving outlets
after 1 hour, if it has not detected any remote control use.
When will Active Powerdown® switch the Audio Visual (AV)
equipment off?
•
If your Embertec Emberstrip® 8AV+ detects that your Audio Visual (AV)
equipment is on but has not been used for a period of 1, 2 or 8 hours
(depending on your settings), the LED light on the RF4CE Smart
Sensor will flash for approximately 10 minutes to warn you that
power down is imminent.
To continue using your equipment
•
Simply press the volume button on ANY of your existing remote controls
or press any button on the RF4CE Smart Sensor. This will cancel the
Active Powerdown® and reset the timer.
A flashing light means
the system is getting
ready to shut down.

button on your
remote control.
