Features (continued)
I“GROUND OK” LED: indicates the presence of a properly-grounded wall outlet. Note: A properly-grounded wall outlet is required for the Power Center to adequately protect connected equipment against surge damage. If this LED is not illuminated, make sure the Power Center is plugged in, the Power Switch is turned on and power is present. If the LED is still not illuminated, contact a qualified electrician to check for proper grounding.
J“SURGE OK” LED: indicates the surge-suppression components are intact and providing full protection. If this LED is not illuminated, make sure the Power Center is plugged in, the Power Switch is turned on and power is present. If the LED is still not illuminated, then some of the surge suppression components may not be functioning properly. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for assistance. You may still use the Power Center; however, connected equipment will be protected from surges at a lesser level than normal.
KMounting Flange: allows for secure mounting (with user-supplied screws) on any suitable surface, including on a wall behind a flat panel TV screen. The user must determine the fitness of the mounting surface and the user-supplied screws prior to installation.
Not Shown
Audible Alarm: immediately alerts you to damaged internal protection circuitry. If this occurs, contact Tripp Lite Customer Support.
Installation
STEP1) Place or Mount Your Power Center: Place the Power Center on a shelf or use mounting flanges to securely mount the Power Center (with user-supplied screws) on any suitable surface, including on a wall behind a flat panel TV screen. The user must determine the fitness of the mounting surface and the user-supplied screws prior to installation. Note: If possible, mount the Power Center so that its LEDs are visible.
STEP 2) Connect Your Power Center to the AC Power Line: Attach the power cord to the Power Center, then plug it in to a standard 3-wire grounded 120V AC 60Hz wall outlet.
STEP 3) Turn Your Power Center ON: Press the Power Center's power switch until it illuminates, indicating power is supplied at the Power Center's outlets.
STEP 4) Check Your Power Center's Diagnostic Indicator Lights: Check the LEDs prior to connecting your equipment. They will indicate various operating conditions when the Power Center is plugged into a live 120V AC outlet and the Power Center's power switch is on.
STEP 5) Connect Your Equipment to the Power Center's AC Outlets: Plug your flat panel TV and accessory (if used) into the appropriately marked Power Center outlets. DO NOT plug in extension cords. DO NOT OVERLOAD the Power Center's outlets. The Power Center can accommodate a total equipment load of up to 12 amps. If the load on the Power Center exceeds 12 amps, the circuit breaker will trip and the outlets will stop providing power. If the circuit breaker trips, reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Depress the circuit breaker to restore power.
OPTIONAL INSTALLATION
Connect a Component to the Power Center for Remote AC/DC Control: The Power Center allows remote on/off control when connected to an external component's “AC/DC Out” jack with user-supplied cable. The Power Center's Power Switch must be set to “OFF” for the remote control function to work. The connected external component's remote control output voltage should be between 3V and 30V AC or DC.
•Plug one end of a user-supplied 1/8-inch (3.5 mm) miniplug cable into the Remote AC/DC Control Jack on the Power Center.
•Plug the other end of a user-supplied 1/8-inch (3.5 mm) miniplug cable into the remote “DC OUT” jack of the component that will be used for remote control.
