PLANNING YOUR SYSTEM
Think about which components need to work together, and place them in close proximity to one
another. You may also want to consider putting frequently handled components in the most con-
venient locations. By carefully planning the system’s architecture in advance, your AC-8CXcan be
integrated into any configuration you choose.
IMPORTANT NOTE
All components in a system must be connected to an iPOWER™Power Management System in order for
the system to be protected from electrical disturbances and to realize maximum noise filtration benefits.
This includes AC power cables, coaxial connections, and telephone cables used with pay-per-view
systems. Failure to do this will degrade system performance and leave it vulnerable to electrical damage.
PROPER GROUNDING
Your iPOWER™product will not be able to provide surge protection or noise reduction without a proper
ground. If the AC line in your house is properly grounded, the GROUND OK light will illuminate. If the
GROUND OK light does not illuminate, stop your installation. Check the AC connection and make sure
that the unit is plugged in properly. If the GROUND OK light still fails to illuminate, have the AC outlet
in the house checked byan electrician to diagnose the ground problem.
