Installation
Connect Your Surge Suppressor to the AC Power Line: Plug the surge suppressor’s power cord into a standard, 3-wire
grounded 120V AC outlet. Once plugged in, the unit will be powered. There is no power control button or function for this
surge suppressor.
Check Your Surge Suppressor’s Diagnostic Indicator Lights: Check your diagnostic LEDs prior to connecting your equipment.
They will indicate various operating conditions when the surge suppressor is plugged into a live 120V AC outlet.
AC POWER LED (Red): Indicates the power status (ON/OFF) of the unit.
“PROTECTED” LED (Green): Indicates the surge suppression components are intact and providing complete protection against
surges. If this LED does not illuminate, some of the surge suppression components are not functioning, and the unit should be
replaced. Visit www.tripplite.com/support for more information.
“GROUNDED” LED (Red): Indicates wall outlet is grounded and surge protection can properly function. If this light DOES NOT
illuminate and power is present, consult a qualified electrician to examine your outlet’s wiring.
“STATUS LEDs” (Green): Indicates that AC power is present in that “Always On” outlet.
IR LED (Blue): Indicates that the unit is receiving a signal from your remote.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Appropriate AC Outlets: Plug your equipment’s power cords into the
surge suppressor’s AC outlets. DO NOT plug in extension cords. DO NOT OVERLOAD the surge suppressor’s outlets. The surge
suppressor 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 surge suppressor exceeds 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip and the outlets will
stop providing power. If the circuit breaker trips, reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Depress the circuit breaker to
reset.
IMPORTANT CONNECTION NOTES
It is important to note that your surge suppressor has “Power Save” and “Always On” outlets. “Power Save” outlets will
have AC power cut to them approximately 3 minutes after the GREEN “Power Save” technology detects that total power
consumption in the “Power Save” outlets has dropped 70%. “Power Save” outlets are recommended for intermittent-use
devices such as TVs, receivers, monitors, printers, scanners, lamps, DVD players, gaming consoles, amplifiers and speaker
systems.
“Always On” outlets provide continuous power even after the “Power Save” outlets are turned OFF. These outlets are
recommended for critical devices such as modems, routers, external drives, cordless phones, fax machines, DVRs (TiVo
®
),
cable and satellite boxes.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Phone Jacks (Optional Installation): Connect a phone cable from the wall
jack directly to the surge suppressor’s RJ-style phone jack labeled “IN.” Connect a phone cable from the surge suppressor’s
RJ-style phone jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected. All models with phone line surge protection protect
devices on a single line only. The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected in line from the wall jack. The surge
suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire, grounded AC outlet for phone line surge protection to work.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Network Jacks* (Optional Installation): Connect a data cord from the wall
jack or cable/DSL modem directly to the surge suppressor’s network jack labeled “IN.” Connect a data cord from the surge
suppressor’s network jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected (typically a computer’s network interface card).
The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected in line from the Ethernet source (typically a wall jack). The surge
suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire grounded AC outlet for network line surge protection to work.
* 10/100 BaseT/TX, Token Ring. Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.
Connect Your Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Coaxial Jacks (Optional Installation): Connect a coaxial cable from the wall
jack directly to the surge suppressor’s “F” style coaxial jack labeled “IN.” Connect a coaxial cable from the surge suppressor’s
“F” style coaxial jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected. Select models include a second set of coaxial jacks
for simultaneous connection and protection of devices on two separate lines (cable, antenna or satellite). The surge suppressor
must always be the first item connected in line from the coaxial wall jack. The surge suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire
grounded AC outlet for coaxial line surge protection to work.
