immediately.
11.
Use only attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer
12.
Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table specified by the
manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid in-
jury from tip-over.
13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for
long periods of time.
14.
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is re
-
quired when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as
power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or
objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been ex-
posed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
15. This apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing, and
no object filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the
apparatus.
16. Note that this apparatus is not completely disconnected from the
AC mains service when the power switch is in the OFF position.
17. The mains plug or power inlet on the product is used as the discon-
nect device, so the disconnected device shall remain readily opera-
ble when reconnected.
18.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manu
-
al could void your authority to operate this apparatus.
IMPORTANT !
Be sure to use a three prong AC cable that properly fits the power
source. Please use the correct fuse designated on the rear panel be-
fore plugging in the power cord. Improper selection can result in dam
-
age to the unit that will not be covered under the warranty.
The lightning flash with an arrow
-
head symbol within an equilateral

Black Lion Audio’s PG-1 mkII is warranted by Black Lion Audio to be free
from defects in materials and workmanship for the period of THREE (3)
YEARS to the original purchaser. In the event of such defects, the prod-
uct will be repaired without charge or, at our option, replaced with a new
one if delivered to Black Lion Audio prepaid, together with a copy of the
sales slip or other proof of purchase date. The warranty excludes prob-
lems due to normal wear, abuse, shipping damage or failure to use the
product in accordance with the specifications.
All parts and labor are covered under this Limited Warranty. However,
if it is determined by Black Lion Audio that the device was damaged or
made defective through abuse, we reserve the right to charge the cus-
tomer for the cost of the repair.
Black Lion Audio shall not be liable for damages based upon inconve-
nience, loss of use of the product, loss of time, interrupted operation or

This warranty is not transferable.
QUICK START GUIDE
Once you have installed your PG-1 mkII where you need it, plug it in to
an appropriate power source. If you are not sure your source is correct,
consult with your local power company.
Plug in your equipment to the correct outlets on the PG-1 mkII.
Turn on the power. The digital and analog outlets are switched with a
delay sequence. The digital and analog outputs turn on with the power
switch and turn off after a six second delay. The high current outputs
turn on after six seconds and turn off with the power switch. This allows
any startup sequences to be finished before the high current devices
are turned on.
1. ON/OFF Switch
: Once the PG-1 mkII is plugged into a grounded
120VAC outlet, turning the front panel POWER switch to the ON
position will sequentially power the components plugged into the
rear panel outlets.
2. GROUND OK
: When this is on, the PG-1 mkII is plugged into a proper-
ly grounded power source. If the LED is not on, unplug the unit from
the power source and correct the fault.
3. Wiring Fault
: This indicates the LINE and NEUTRAL wires in the
source are reversed. Unplug the unit immediately and consult an
electrician to fix the fault.
4.
Clean Power On
: This LED indicates that the PG-1 mkII is providing
clean, beautiful AC power to all connected components.
5. Abnormal Voltage
: When this LED is ON, the PG-1 mkII is warning
about under/over voltage.
6. Protection ON
: When this LED is on, the PG-1 mkII’s power surge
circuitry is functioning correctly. If this LED is OFF, the circuit has
malfunctioned. If it is OFF, unplug the unit immediately.
7.
Digital Filter (Switched) Outlets
: These outlets have a special filter
circuit that is designed to reduce AC supply interference to your
digital components (workstation, digital effects, etc.). They also
isolate the rest of your system from noise generated by the digital
components themselves.
8. Analog Audio Filter (Switched) Outlets
: These outlets have a spe-
cial filter circuit that reduces audible noise in your analog compo
-
nents (mixers, dynamic effects, etc.)
9.
High Current Filter (Timed) Outlets
: These outlets have a special
filter circuit designed to handle high current components like power
amplifiers or Active Speakers.
10.
Gold-plated ground post
: Provides a connection point for any un-
grounded components.
11. Thermal Circuit Breaker
: protects the PG-1 mkII from power over-
load.
12.
Breaker Open
: When this LED is on, the thermal circuit breaker has
tripped due to an overload. Before resetting the breaker, find the
reason for the overload.
13. Ultra-high Current AC Power Cable
: integral high power, heavy duty
AC cable to maximize power transfer to high current components
such as amplifiers.
14. Dimmer
: This know controls a flexible accessory light. Push on/off
and turn clockwise for brightness.
15. 12V XLR Lamp Socket
: Provides 12VDC on PIN-2 to an accessory
lamp.
16. Numerical Display
: Three-character LED displays the line voltage
at the source.
17. Unswitched Convenience Outlets
: These are ‘always on’ filtered
power outlets.
18. USB Charger:
5V1A convenience charger for USB devices.
Note:
For best performance we recommend plugging analog compo-
nents into the analog outlets and digital to digital. It will not harm any
components if they are plugged into any other outlet.
