Overview and Operat ion

 ON/OFF switch and circuit breaker-The ON/OFF switch provides on/off power control to all of the outlets and serves as a circui t breaker. When an output o verload condition occurs the ON/OFF switch moves to the OFF positi on. Disconnect all equi pment from the Surge A rr es t be f ore movi ng the switc h to the ON position.

 Outlets controlled by ON/OFF switch -These outlets receive power when the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position.  MASTER and CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets-When enable d, a device plugged into the MASTER out le t wil l ac t as the ma st er

on/off sw itch for devices plugged into the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets .Turn off or place in Standby mode the device plugged into the MASTER outlet and autom atically all devices plugged into the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets will turn off. When the device plugged into the MASTER outlet is turned on or is taken out of sta ndby mode, all devices plugged into the CONTROLLED BY

MASTER outle ts wil l au tomatica lly turn on. NOTE: If a computer is being used as the master device, standby mode must be enabled. For Windows, access Control Panel, select Power

Options then select Power Scheme s. For MacIntosh, access System Preferences then select Energy Saver.

 Master/Controlled by Master Setup button and LED-Use the Ma ster/Controlled by Ma ster Setup button to enable the Master/ Controlled by Master feature . W h en en a bled the LE D illumuinates.

To enable the fe at ure:

1. Connect a device to the MASTER outlet (television, A/V rec e iver, compu ter).

If a comput er is being used as the master device , put the computer into stan dby or hibernation mode. If an A/V com ponent is used as the master, turn the com ponent off.

2. Press and hold the Setup button for 3-4 seconds, until the Master Enabled LED illuminates.

To disable the featur e, press and hold the Setup button for 3-4 seconds, until the Master Enabled LED extinquishes.  PROTECTION WORKING LED-The LED is normally illuminated indicati ng that the surge protec tor is on and ready to protect

connecte d equipment. If the LED is not illuminated the surge suppression circuitry has been compromised. Contact APC using the contact information provided in this guide.

 CONTROLLED ON LED-When illuminated, the unit is supplying power to the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets.  BUILDING WIRING FAULT LED- T his LED illuminates when there is no ground circuit , an overl oaded neutral or there is a reversed

polarity in the building wiring. Discontinue use and have a qualified electric ian check the wiring in the building.  Tel/DSL connector provides protection from phone lin e pow er surges. Connect a phone cord from the wall telephone jack to the

connecto r mark ed In. Connect one end of the sup pl ied pho ne pa tc h cord t o the Surg e con nec tor l abe led To Equipment and and the other end to a telephone, FAX or modem.

 In/To Eqipment co axial connectors-Connect a standard telev ision input coaxial cable to the coaxial connectors on the Sur geArrest. The In connector, when used with the box, DSS receiver, A/B switch, splitter, or VCR/DVD. DO NOT connect a cable from a DSS dish directly to the Antenna/Cable In Connector.

Power line transients that APC products have been designed to protect against, as recognized by industry standards, include spikes and surges on AC power lines (not designed as protection against protection, and in cases in which such protection is available, telephone service equipment must include a properly installed and operating "primary protection" device at the service entrance (such devices are normally added during telephone installation) in order to be covered for telephone l ine transients . Protection of CATV (Cable Television) connec ted equipment fr om transients applies only to APC products which offer such protection, and in such cases, the CATV service must be properly grounded according to the codes set forth in the National Electric Code (NEC) in order to be covered for CATV transients. Protection from network line transients applies only to APC products which offer network line protection.

Equipment Protection Policy Dollar Limits

For customers who meet the qualifications and conditions set forth in this policy, APC will provide reimbursement (cost of repair or fair market value) up to the dollar limits stated as follows:
