Installation

The installation of the C5 consists of the following steps:

1. Make connections

2. Apply power

Make Connections

Prior to connecting equipment to the C5 Power Filter, ensure the unit

is functional by connecting the AC Power Cord (provided) on the side

panel ( , Figure 4). Once power is applied to the unit, and the unit is

powered on, the front panel LEDs will illuminate. Turn the power

switch off - all LEDs extinguish.

Note:

Due to the unique ﬁltering and surge protection provided by the

C5, APC recommends connecting AV components as noted on the

outlet panel of the unit (Figure 3).

Apply Power

Apply power to the C5 by pressing the front panel Power Switch ( ,

Figure 2) inward, then releasing the switch. Once power is applied to

the unit, the front panel LEDs are illuminated.

Dimming of the C5 Display

If the LEDs are too bright, they can be extinguished without impacting

the functionality of the unit.

To extinguish the LEDs on the top panel, push and hold the power

button for six seconds. The power button should begin to ﬂash. Once

the button is released, all LEDs except the Power Button should be

extinguished.

Please note: If you choose to extinguish the LEDs you will not be able

to read important information on the panel, including input voltage,

load, wiring ok, etc.
