Page 6: Communication Access Modes
Power-up Sequencing When the PT40 Commander is powered on, each of the power outlets is powered sequentially with a two-second delay between each outlet. Power sequencing staggers the individual loads, eliminating the potential of a blown fuse or circuit breaker due to excessive in-rush current and allows circuit support for operating load capacities of 80% to 90%. -
