PRODUCT FEATURES AND OPERATION

A. 19” RACK MOUNT EARS: Installer friendly with oversized screw holes to allow installing flexibility 

B.  LIGHT TUBE SWITCH: Toggle switch for the lighting tubes with options of LOW ILLUMINATION, HIGH  

  ILLUMINATION, AND OFF

C. LED LIGHT TUBES: Two retractable 2.5” LED light tubes containing 5 LEDs each. 

D.  SURGE PROTECTION LED (GREEN): Indicates that the surge protection function is enabled when illuminated.  

If  surge comes on and the MOV becomes overheated, WattBox™ Fireproof MOV Technology thermo fuse will 

shutdown the circuit and power will be cut off. 

E.  GROUNDED LED (GREEN): Indicates that the unit is properly grounded and line/neutral polarity is correct.  

F.  POWER SWITCH: Turns power on to the 8 switched outlets on the rear panel.

G. CIRCUIT BREAKER:  Automatically opens when the current load exceeds 15 Amps. Push to reset.

H. FRONT PANEL OUTLET: Provides a convenient power source (with surge suppression and line noise filtering)  

  for devices not normally part of your component system, including game systems, video recorders or battery  

  chargers.  The outlet has a green LED which is illuminated when the outlet contains power.

I.   POWER CORD:  Provides power from the wall outlet and must be plugged into a properly wired and grounded  

  3-wire outlet (length 9 ft.)

J.   ALWAYS ON FILTER BANK: Provides a power source (with surge suppression and line noise filtering) for 

equipment that should have a continuous source of power.  Both outlets have a green LED which is 

illuminated when the outlet contains power.

K. SWITCHED FILTER BANK: Provides a power source (with surge suppression and line noise filtering) for  

 

  equipment that will be powered on and off by the power switch on the front panel (see letter F).

INSTALLATION 

1.  Mount the WB-11-LIGHT into a rack by installing four user-supplied rackmount screws through the  

  WB-11-LIGHT rackmount holes and into the rack rails.  

2.   Plug the power cord into a standard, 3-wire grounded 120V AC, 60 Hz. outlet.  Verify power is coming to  

 

the unit by visually checking for an illuminated green ALWAYS ON LED on the front panel.  Verify that the unit 

is properly grounded by visually checking for an illuminated green GROUND LED on the front panel.  If this 

light  DOES NOT illuminate and power is present, consult a qualified electrician to examine the outlet’s wiring.

3.  Press the power switch from the “0” position to the “1” and visually check for an illuminated SWITCH. This  

 

  indicates that power is supplied at the switched outlets of the unit.

4.   Check that the surge feature is working properly by visually checking for an illuminated green PROTECTED 

LED on the front panel.  If the LED does not illuminate, this means that the thermo fuse has shutdown the 

circuit and power has been cut off.  This guarantees that your electronics are safe and the WB-11-LIGHT has 

done its job to protect the equipment.  Per the Lifetime Replacement Policy, if the product sacrifices itself 

while protecting your connected equipment, you may request an equivalent replacement to the latest 

technology of that product category (see SnapAV’s Surge Protector Equipment Warranty Policy for details).  

5.  Connect equipment into the AC outlets of the WB-11-LIGHT.  DO NOT plug in extension cords and DO NOT    

  OVERLOAD.  This unit can accommodate a total equipment load of up to 15 amps (whether plugged into a  

  single outlet or spread out over multiple outlets). If the load exceeds 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip and  

  power will be turned off at all outlets. For the unit to operate correctly, unplug the unit from the wall outlet,   

  press the master power switch to the off position (position “0”), press the circuit breaker to reset the unit, and  

  reduce the load by unplugging some devices.
