P“Digital” and “Analog” Isolated Filter Banks: are designed to protect digital and analog equipment against surge damage and line noise distortion. State-of-the- art Isobar® technology provides an additional level of line noise filtering: ensuring line noise generated by equipment connected to one filter bank does not interfere with the performance of equipment connected to another filter bank.

Q“High Current” Isolated Filter Bank: will not limit or impede current, providing equipment such as amplifiers and subwoofers with the high amperage current they need for ultimate audio performance. This filter bank protects high-current equipment against surge damage and line noise distortion. State-of-the-art Isobar® technology provides an additional level of line noise filtering: ensuring line noise generated by equipment connected to one filter bank does not interfere with the performance of equipment connected to another filter bank.

R“IR” Outlets: can be controlled either manually (using front panel switches) or remotely using the included IR remote or a universal learning IR remote (user- supplied)*. Program the outlets to turn on or off individually or in a sequence. See “IR Outlet Control” in the “Optional Installation” section for details.

* The user-supplied remote must be a universal learning type to work with the included remote.

SInfrared (IR) Sensor Input: accepts a remote IR sensor (user-supplied), for use when the built-in front panel IR sensor is covered.

T3-Line High-Definition (HD) Compatible Coax Protection: includes three sets of gold coaxial “F” connectors that protect components against surge damage and line noise distortion on three DSS satellite, cable or antenna lines simultaneously. Coaxial protection is compatible with all digital signals for High-Definition (HD) video.

U1-Line Ethernet Protection: safeguards equipment against surge damage and line noise distortion on a 10/100 Base T network line.*

* Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.

V1-Line Tel/Modem Protection: safeguards Personal Video Recorders (TiVo®) and other components against surge damage and line noise distortion on a single dial- up line. Built-in splitter (one jack in and two jacks out) allows you to simultaneously connect and protect two components sharing a single line.

W Circuit Breaker: protects against dangerous system overload. If the total load on the Power Conditioning Center's outlets exceeds 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip and power will be turned off at all outlets. Reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Press the circuit breaker in to restore power.

X 10 ft. Cord and Right Angle Plug: right angle plug allows equipment and furniture to be flush against the wall. Connect to a standard 3-wire grounded 120V AC, 60 Hz. wall outlet.

Not Shown

Unit/Cord Labels: coordinate Power Conditioning Center outlets with component power cords for easy identification.

Audible Alarm: immediately alerts you to damaged internal protection circuitry. If this occurs, contact Tripp Lite Customer Support.

Installation

STEP 1) Place Your Power Conditioning

 

Center in a Console or Mount It in a

 

Rack: The Power Conditioning Center

 

includes rubber mounting feet as well as

 

rackmount hardware. Place the Power

 

Conditioning Center on a shelf as a console

 

component or use the rackmount hardware

 

to mount it in any standard size rack.

Step 1A

 

To mount the unit in a rack, first remove

 

the console feet by unscrewing them.

 

Attach the included rackmount hardware

 

to the sides of the Power Conditioning

 

Center (STEP 1A) with the included

 

screws. After installing the hardware,

 

install four user-supplied rackmount

 

screws through the unit's rackmount

 

hardware (STEP 1B) and into the rack rails

Step 1B

as shown. The user must determine the

 

fitness of the user-supplied screws prior to installation.

 

STEP 2) Connect Your Power Conditioning Center to the AC Power Line: Plug the Power Conditioning Center's power cord into a standard, 3-wire grounded 120V AC, 60 Hz. outlet.

STEP3) Turn Your Power Conditioning Center ON: Press the Power Conditioning Center's power switch until it illuminates, indicating power is supplied at the Power Conditioning Center's outlets.

STEP 4) Check Your Power Conditioning Center's Diagnostic Indicator Lights: Check the LEDs prior to connecting your equipment. They will indicate various operating conditions when the Power Conditioning Center is plugged into a live 120V AC outlet and the Power Conditioning Center's power switch is on.

STEP 5) Connect Your Equipment to the Power Conditioning Center's AC Outlets: Plug your equipment's power cords (including 2-wire devices) into the Power Conditioning Center's AC outlets. DO NOT plug in extension cords. DO NOT OVERLOAD the Power Conditioning Center's outlets. The Power Conditioning Center can accommodate a total equipment load of up to 15 amps (whether plugged into a single outlet or spread out over multiple outlets). If the load on the Power Conditioning Center's outlets exceeds 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip and power will be turned off at all outlets. Reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Press the circuit breaker to restore power.

Isolated Filter Banks: Depending on the type of equipment you are connecting, choose one of three Isolated Filter Banks (see Rear Panel diagram in “Features” section) that provide an extra level of filtering between components:

Connect digital equipment to the five outlets labeled “Digital Filter Bank”.

Connect analog equipment to the five outlets labeled “Analog Filter Bank”.

Connect equipment with high amperage current draw (such as amplifiers and subwoofers) to the two outlets labeled “High Current Filter Bank”. These outlets will not limit or impede current, providing equipment with the high amperage current they need for ultimate audio performance.

IR Outlets: Outlets labeled “IR1”, “IR2”, “IR3” and “IR4” can be controlled either manually (using front panel switches) or remotely using the included IR remote or a universal learning IR remote (user-supplied)*. NOTE: remote control is optional; IR Outlets will function the same as other outlets until you attempt to control them either manually or remotely. See “IR Outlet Control” in the “Optional Installation” section for details.

* The user-supplied remote must be a universal learning type to work with the included remote.
