Properly Connecting
Your POWER360
To completely protect your equipment from surges, every
wire leading into or out of the equipment you want to
protect must be connected to the appropriate Panamax
surge protector. Damaging lightning and power surges
can enter your system through any AC power or signal-line
(phone line, grounding wires, coax cables, modem cables,
LAN cables, etc.) connected to your electronic equipment.
The Panamax $75,000 Connected Equipment Protection
Policy is void if any wire leading into or out of the equipment
is not properly connected to the appropriate Panamax
surge protector. The surge protector must also be plugged
into a properly wired and grounded outlet. Please see the
warranty for details or contact the Panamax Tech Support
Department with questions.
Important Safety Points
Panamax POWER360 and the connected equipment must be
indoors, in a dry location and in the same building. Although
your Panamax POWER360 is very durable, its internal
components are not isolated from the environment. Do not
install any Panamax product near heat emitting appliances
such as a radiator or heat register. Do not install this product
where excessive moisture is present; for example near a
bathtub, sink, pool, basement floor, fish tank, etc. It is not
uncommon for a building to be improperly grounded. In
order to protect your equipment, Panamax products must
be plugged into a properly wired and grounded 3-wire
outlet. Additionally, building wiring and grounding must
conform to applicable NEC (USA) or CEC (Canada) codes for
the Panamax protection policy to be valid.
Circle of Protection
The CIRCLE OF PROTECTION provides peace of mind that your connected equipment is safe.
When all lights are blue, you can rest assured that your electronics are protected. If any of the
lights are red or not illuminated, see the diagram for further information.
If you find the lights distracting, a switch is provided on the right side of the unit to turn the
lights off. Your POWER360 will still be working when the lights are off. Wiring and Voltage LED
indicators will illuminate RED regardless of the switch position if there is an issue with your
incoming power or outlet wiring. Before performing any trouble shooting steps, always switch
the status indicator lights on.
1. PROTECTED
BLUE indicates that the POWER360 is functioning properly and that all connected equipment is
protected. (see diagram on back page)
OFF indicates that the power is disconnected from the outlets or that the switch is in the off
position. If this light is OFF but the VOLTAGE light is illuminated BLUE, then the PROTECT OR
DISCONNECT feature in your POWER360 has protected your equipment from a catastrophic
surge event and disconnected power. Unplug all electronics from your POWER360 and contact
Panamax Tech Support for assistance.
2. WIRING
BLUE indicates that the wall outlet is properly wired and grounded.
RED indicates an open ground (no ground wire) or reverse wiring (polarity)
condition is detected. Unplug all electronics from your POWER360 and contact
Panamax Tech Support for assistance.
3. VOLTAGE
BLUE indicates that incoming voltage is within a safe range.
RED indicates an over-voltage or brownout condition and that POWER360 has disconnected
power to connected equipment to keep it safe. POWER360 will automatically reset when
voltage is back within a safe range. If condition persists, it is advisable to contact an electrician
or your power company to determine the cause of the abnormal voltage issue.
Installation
Your POWER360 may be securely attached to the wall outlet using the provided screw. A cord
management channel is provided on the rear of the unit for organizing USB charging cables.
1.
Turn OFF all power to all equipment that will be plugged into POWER360.
2.
Remove the existing screw from the center of your outlet wall plate.
3.
Plug POWER360 into the top outlet of your duplex receptacle. (see front page diagram)
4.
Secure your POWER360 using the provided screw.
5.
Verify that the CIRCLE OF PROTECTION is illuminated in Blue. If it is not illuminated,
verify the display switch on the right side of POWER360 is in the “ON” position.
6.
Plug the equipment to be protected into POWER360 and turn on.
Troubleshooting
The CIRCLE OF PROTECTION is not lit, there is no AC power to my equipment, or my
equipment doesn’t turn on:
• Verify the display switch on the right side of POWER360 is in the “ON” position.
• Make sure POWER360 is plugged into a working AC outlet.
• Verify the “VOLTAGE” indicator on the CIRCLE OF PROTECTION is Blue.
If Red, the incoming line voltage is either too high or too low and has been disconnected
from your connected equipment.
• If you still have no power, POWER360 may be damaged.
Contact Panamax Tech Support.
My mobile device is not charging:
• Some devices may be incompatible with this USB charging port. Although the device may
report that it is not charging, it is most likely to be charging at a lower (0.5 Amp) current.
• When charging two devices it is possible that that USB charging circuitry may be
overloaded. Disconnect one of the devices.
