one second to turn
Bank 3, 4, and 5 out-
lets ON or OFF. 

Wiring OK LED

Normally On. Indicates
that the wall outlet is
properly grounded and
Line/Neutral polarity is
correct.

Dimmer/Meter Mode

Pushbutton control for meter

brightness. Quick press
cycles between four bright-
ness settings. Press and hold
toggles the meter 2 display
between Volts-Out and Amps.

Gaming Outlet

Convenient front
panel switched outlet
provides voltage 
regulation and surge
protection for gaming
systems, digital cam-
eras, camcorders,
and other devices.

Digital Voltmeter

Digital LED voltmeter indicates the incoming line voltage. If line
voltage drops below 90VAC, or if the line voltage exceeds 142VAC,
the display will turn off and the “unsafe voltage” indicator will flash
indicating an unsafe voltage condition.

Digital Volts Out/Ammeter

S

hows the voltage the unit is providing to connected components, when the

Meter Mode button is activated, displays actual current draw (0-15A) of the
system, giving a visual reference as to how the system is functioning under a
variety of conditions. Volts out meter will flash if the unit is out of regulation.

Note to CATV Installers:

This reminder is provided to call attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC. That article
provides specific guidelines for proper grounding. It specifies that the cable ground
shall be connected to the grounding system of the building and as close to the point
of entry as practical.

Unsafe Voltage Indicato

r

Located in the Voltmeter and
is normally off. Flashes red
to indicate that the incoming
line voltage is unsafe and the
unit has disconnected the
power to protect your equip-
ment.

Bank 1 and 2
Indicator Light

Normally ON, is lit

Ground Lug

Provides a common
grounding point for
equipment with sep-
arate ground leads.

Main Power

Must be plugged into a
properly wired &
grounded 3-wire outlet.

Universal TV Coaxial Jacks

3 pairs of bidirectional pro-
tection circuits optimized for
satellite, cable, and antenna
TV signal lines. 

Phone Jacks

Protection circuits for standard
telephone or pay-per- view
lines. Phone circuit is auto-
resetting. Incoming phone

jack. For the LAN 1 protected jacks
the incoming LAN line must be

equipment must be plugged into the
gaming jack on the front panel. 8
wire protection, 52V clamping.

Outlet Bank 5

Two switched, high-current outlets controlled by
the front panel Power Button or the DC Trigger
input. Bank 5 has a 5 second turn on delay and
turns off immediately upon shutdown. The High
Current outlets provide power from a low imped-
ance noise filtration circuit that does not limit the
current to your equipment. Its output is noise
isolated from all other outlet banks

Outlet Banks 3 and 4

Two switched outlets with linear filtration tech-
nology (LiFT) controlled by the front panel
Power Button or the DC Trigger input. Banks 3
& 4  will turn on immediately and turn off after
a 10 second delay. LiFT EMI/RFI noise filtration
is provided by a two-stage balanced Pi filter
which also provides noise isolation from all
other outlet banks.

Outlet Banks 1 and 2

Two always-on outlets with linear filtration tech-
nology (LiFT). Power will only be turned off under
a fault condition (

S

ee specifications for over-volt-

age and under-voltage thresholds). LiFT EMI/RFI
noise filtration is provided to Banks 1 & 2 by a
two-stage balanced Pi filter which also provides
noise isolation from all other outlet banks.
