The IPC-6 is a sophisticated intelligent power controller. It is capable of complete power on/off management in the most complicated Audio or Home Theater Systems. When a com- ponent that is plugged into one of its two current sensing outlets is turned on, the IPC-6 activates other outlets and relays based upon a user pre-programmed sequence. Two separate current-sensing outlets provide 2 individual trigger- ing sequences. Conversely, when the "triggering" component is turned off, the IPC-6 initiates a separate user pre-pro- grammed power off sequence. You may also choose to trig- ger one or both of the sequences by using the unit's 12 volt DC smart-sensing trigger inputs.

Components connected to the IPC-6's switched AC power outlets must be of the "latching" type, that is, they must stay in the "on" state when you remove AC power (unplug it) so that they are "on" when you reapply power (plug it in again).

Additionally, the IPC-6 is able to control 2 devices or compo- nents which need a 12 volt DC signal to turn on (e.g., video projectors and electric screens). Finally, the IPC-6 can control 2 devices that require a switch or relay contact closure for operation (e.g., electric curtains and blinds or low voltage lighting).

Unlike other “current-sensing” power controllers, the Niles IPC-6 uses "smart" current-sensing outlets. The IPC-6 is able to automatically sense as little as a 2 watt difference between a component's "on" and "standby" state. The IPC-6 does not require the triggering component to have a 10, 20, or 30 percent difference between its "on" and "standby" states.

You can add to the capabilities of the IPC-6 by using it in combination with other Niles products. Niles makes a series of devices which can be controlled by an IPC-6 including speaker switchers, line-level audio switchers, RF switchers, and composite video switchers.
