CONNECTIONS
AC Outlets Connections
The Vital 710 features two Switched AC Outlets. They
turn ON/OFF with Vital 710 power (ON/Standby). They
can be used to control power on devices that are to
be turned on and off at the same time as the Vital 710.
Devices with clocks and timers (DVR, TiVo, VCR) or that
are connected to the internet for updates, (media
servers, Satellite receivers, Cable Boxes) should be con-
nected to unswitched outlets.
Only connect one device to each outlet. Be sure each
device draws less than 100W.

devices to the AC Outlets on the Vital 710 Rear
