Connecting Your Equipment

(See Front and Rear Panel illustrations on page 5 for connection to your specific model.)
After you have properly connected your Under-Monitor Surge Suppressor to the AC line
and telephone line (if applicable), you can connect the AC power cords of your equip-
ment to the surge suppressor. DO NOT OVERLOAD the surge suppressor. Connect loads
having a total current draw of up to 15 amps. Each outlet can handle up to 15 amps, but
do not exceed a total load of 15 amps for all outlets. If the circuit breaker trips, remove
overload and depress circuit breaker button to reset.
NOTE: The switched outlets are labelled COMPUTER,MONITOR,PRINTER and AUXILIARY
only for your convenience. For example: it is not necessary to plug a computer into the
COMPUTER outlet. Any type of equipment (as long as it does not exceed 15 amps) can be
plugged into any of the outlets.

Switched Outlets
The five switched outlets on the rear of the unit can be controlled individually by their
respective ON/OFF switches located on the front of the unit. Also, all five outlets may be
controlled simultaneously by the ON/OFF switch labelled "MASTER". (NOTE: the outlet
labelled "COMPUTER" on the rear of the TouchMaster and Command Console models
can only be controlled by the MASTER switch.)
The indicator lights or the switches themselves (depending on the model) will illuminate
when the switches are pushed ON and power is reaching the respectively labelled out-
lets on the rear of the unit. The MASTER switch must be pushed ON for the other indi-
vidual switches to work.
Before turning the switches ON, confirm that incoming AC power is safe for connected
equipment according to the diagnostic indicators. Both green indicator lights (PRO-
TECTED and Line OK) should be illuminated.
Unswitched Outlets (not available on Power Center)
There is one surge-protected, unswitched outlet on the rear of the unit. This outlet is con-
stantly powered regardless of the position of any of the other switches (including the
MASTER switch), as long as the unit is plugged into a live 120V AC outlet. The outlet is
designed to provide power for a clock, lamp, etc.
Command Console Compact
The four outlets on the rear of the Command Console Compact can be controlled by the
two switches on the front panel labelled MASTER and AUXILIARY. Power to ALL of the out-
lets can be turned ON and OFF using the MASTER switch. Power to the outlets labelled
AUXILIARY 1 and AUXILIARY 2 can be turned ON and OFF using the AUXILIARY switch.
The red indicator lights beneath the switches on the front panel will illuminate when the
switches are ON and power is reaching the outlets on the rear of the unit.
