Hookup and Installation

Step 2

Program the Outlet Banks

Each outlet bank on the rear panel of the Power Console is programmable. Using the slide switches on the rear panel, you can program the outlets for switched or unswitched, and for delay or always-on (no delay) (Fig. 2). You can also determine the length of the delay (5, 10, or 15 seconds).

A. Outlet Banks Always-On (unswitched): For components that need to retain memory or other settings (DVRs, satellite receivers, VCRs), set the top slide switch to “Always ON” (Fig. 2a). These outlet banks will always supply power when the Power Console is plugged into the wall.

B.Outlet Banks Switched On (no delay): Set the top slide switch to “Switched”. Make sure that the lower slide switch is set to “No Delay” (Fig. 2b). The outlet banks will be immediately powered-on when the Power Console is switched-on by pressing the “Switched” button on the front of the unit. Switched outlets can also be switched-on by external remote signal (see page 10-11). These outlets will remain powered-on for a short period of time after switching them off depending on the “Delay Time” setting (see “Delay Time Switch” below).

C.Outlet Banks Switched On After Delay: You may find it necessary to program your outlets to switch on after a delay. Once the delay is set, the outlets will be powered-on after the outlets that are set for “no delay” have powered-on. They will then power-off in reverse sequence: “delay” outlets will power-off first and “no delay” outlets will power-off last. This is useful to avoid the loud and occasionally damaging speaker “thump” created when the amplifier voltage is stabilizing.

a.Set the top slide switch to “Switched” and the bottom slide switch to “Delay” (Fig. 2c).

b.Repeat this for each bank that you want to be switched on after a delay.

c.Press the “Switched” button on the front of the Power Console to activate all of the switched outlets.

Note: The delay can only be set on “Switched” outlets.

D.Delay Time Switch: This switch sets the length of delay for all outlet banks that are programmed as “Switched” and “Delay”. Set the delay time by selecting 5, 10, or 15 seconds (Fig. 2d). 15 seconds is the recommended delay time for tube amplifiers.
