Filtered Outlet Banks 1 & 2:
Eight Outlets (two banks / four outlets per bank) are fed through separate "Balanced, Double L" noise filtration circuits. These
circuits are designed to eliminate AC contamination that is detrimental to the performance of audio or video components like
stereo receivers, VCRs or televisions. The two dedicated filters are carefully engineered to provide power filtration and inter-
component "noise isolation" for both "common mode" (line/neutral-to-ground) and "normal-mode" (line-to-neutral)
EMI/RFI. This means that high-frequency interference will be drastically reduced not only from the incoming power but also
from equipment plugged into the other outlet bank, regardless of what "mode" it occurs in. Even equipment with unground-
ed, 2-blade plugs, receives clean power.
Outlet Bank 1 remains ON continually to provide a constant power source for programmable audio/video components. A
personal video recorder (such as TiVo™) and VCR are two examples of components that require a constant supply of power.
A TiVo™ video recorder relies on continual power to monitor the cable signal and retain its programmed information. A VCR
should be connected to one of these always-on, filtered outlets to maintain correct clock time and programmed recording
information.
Outlet Bank 2 contains four switched outlets that will turn your connected equipment ON or OFF with one of two MAX®
5300 triggers (Switched Outlets push-button or Voltage Sense Trigger). A 3-position slide switch (Outlet Bank 2 Turn-Off
Switch) located on the rear panel controls the timing for Outlet Bank 2. Together, these outlets can be set as Always-On or
with a turn-off delay of either 10 or 30 seconds to prevent speaker "thump". This switch provides the option of having a total
of eight always-on outlets (Outlet Banks 1 & 2). See the Sequential Startup/Shutdown section for more information.
When set to one of the delay positions (10 or 30 seconds), Outlet Bank 2 outlets will remain as Switched outlets, controlled
by the Switched Outlets push-button and/or the DC Voltage Sense Trigger. In this situation, Outlet Bank 2 outlets will not
power down until after the selected time has elapsed.
