Front Panel Indicators
A series of intelligent LED indicators on the front panel of Theatre Director keep you informed of the
power status at all times. The red light lets you know that the surge protection function is ready
in the event it is needed. The green light lets you know that your electrical system is wired and
grounded properly. The range of blue lights let you know what your current input voltage level is.
The main power switch, also located on the front panel, turns power on and off to all switched AC
outlets. This single switch can be used to conveniently power on and off all components plugged
into the switched outlets with the touch of one button.
