Always On outlets
The Always On outlets are recommended for use with Audio Visual
(AV) equipment that requires constant power for timers, program
guide and recording features (e.g. DVR, PVR, VCR, cable box, digital TV
receivers, game consoles, hard drives or bedside alarms). This also
includes certain home theater projectors that require a cool down
period, including rear projection televisions. This will ensure constant
power is not interrupted to these devices.
Power Saving outlets – will be automatically switched off
The Power Saving outlets are recommended for Audio Visual (AV)
equipment that can be automatically switched off (e.g. televisions
without hard drives, amplifiers, stereos, speakers, sound bars, DVDs,
CDs, Blu-ray players, lamps).
RF4CE Smart Sensor (Model:RD-01)
The RF4CE Smart Sensor activates the Power Saving outlets,
monitors activity and is also used to set the Active Powerdown®. It
comes with a 9.8 ft/3 m cable, LED light and two button control.

The Protected light should be on. If this light turns off or is dim, you
may have a ground-wiring problem in your home and you should
contact an electrician to properly ground the outlet.

outlets. When the light is on, the Power Saving outlets are powered; if
the light is off, no power is applied to the Power Saving outlets.
