each receptacle:

for 2 seconds. The green Power LED on the front panel flashes continually, indicating
that the unit is in configuration mode.

Press each receptacle button repeatedly to cycle through the available group selections,
indicated by the LEDs beside the button, until you arrive at the setting you want for the
receptacle:
No LEDs lit — No groups (The receptacle will not be part of any grouping.)
S LED lit — Group 1
F LED lit — Group 2
Red (power) LED lit — Group 3
3.
Press either the Standby or the Full button to exit configuration mode.

Front panel Security Lockout (Executive Mode)

When the PCS4 is in executive mode, it does not accept commands from the front panel. If
any button is pressed while the unit is in executive mode, the Power LED flashes three times,
indicating that the input from the front panel is not being accepted.
To enter or exit executive mode, press and hold the Standby and Full buttons simultaneously
for 2 seconds. The front panel Power LED flashes three times to indicate that the mode has
been switched.
NOTE:
If power to the PCS4 is recycled while the unit is in executive mode, the PCS4
remains in executive mode.
