Introduction
Thank you for choosing Philips model SPP4200 / SPP4210 / SPP4220 Theatre Director Surge Protector. With Theatre Director, the home theater surge protector is moved o the oor behind the A/V cabinet up to the shelf or rack that holds all of the other components. This provides the ultimate in convenience when connecting all of the components. In addition to the convenience, Theatre Director is also technologically superior to standard surge protectors. With features such as our proprietary s-OV Technology, V3 Conditioning, Theatre Director truly takes home theater surge protection to a whole new level.
Please read and save this manual. It contains important information with regard to the proper installation and maintenance of the surge protector system. Failure to follow all instructions and warnings could result in damage to the surge protector or connected equipment and void the warranty.
Should you have any questions regarding the use of this product, please contact our customer service department at 800-852-4312.

Features
s-OV Technology
Philips’ s-OV (Smart Over-voltage) technology is a new, proprietary (patent pending) method of surge protection that is designed to protect connected equipment from catastrophic over-voltage events, such as lightning strikes, faulty wiring, etc.
Through a series of relays, when an over-voltage event occurs, the power to all connected equipment is completely disconnected preventing any possible damage to the equipment. When normal power is restored, Theatre Director’s intelligent processor automatically resets itself for normal operation and equipment protection.
In addition to disconnecting power to all connected equipment, s-OV technology also prevents damaging voltage from passing through to the MOVs, which are there to protect your valuable equipment from everyday transient surges and spikes.
1
V3TM Technology
For the more common everyday transient surges and spikes that are most commonly caused by household appliances turning on and o, Theatre Director uses an advanced type of MOV (metal oxide varistor). This new type of MOV provides greater capacity to absorb surges and spikes, as well as better energy dissipation. The result is a more ecient, longer lasting surge protector.
Clear Connect Power Conditioning
The electrical current running through your home is lled with impurities referred to as electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), which are caused by household appliances and electronics. If left alone, these impurities can show up in your home theater system in the form of picture or sound distortion and degradation. Our Clear Connect power conditioning technology puries the electrical current before it reaches your sensitive components. This ltering process reduces EMI and RFI noise by up to 85 decibels (dB), among the highest level of noise ltration available today, keeping your equipment safe, picture sharp and sound crisp.
Always-on AC Outlets
Each model of Theatre Director is equipped with two AC outlets that are always on – regardless of the position of the main power switch. These outlets are useful for components that require a constant source of power to maintain programmed settings, such as a VCR, DVR, TiVoTM, etc. While these outlets are not controlled by the main power switch, they are still protected by s-OV and V3 technologies.
Switched AC Outlets
The remaining AC outlets (number varies by model) are powered on and o with the main power switch on the front panel. All components connected to these outlets can be powered on and o at the same time by simply pressing the main power switch on the front panel.
Coaxial Cable Protection
Depending on the model, Theatre Director includes either 2, 3 or 4 sets (see feature chart page 4) of gold-plated coaxial cable protection. These connectors are useful protecting components that have incoming coaxial cables connected to them, such as satellite dishes, cable boxes, antennas, etc.
RJ45 Networking Protection
Should your home theater system incorporate incoming RJ45 networking cables, such as a media server or HDTV monitor with broadband web access, Theatre Director’s RJ45 protection will keep the connected equipment safe from surges that can potentially enter through the incoming RJ45 network cable (not available on model SPP4200).

RJ11 Modem/Phone Line Protection
As with incoming coaxial or RJ45 networking lines, surges can also enter your system through standard RJ11 phone lines. Some A/V components, such as digital satellite receivers, DVRs, TiVoTM, etc., require connection to a phone line. Theatre Director will protect your equipment from surges coming through this line too. In addition, should your system incorporate more than one component that requires a phone line connection, we included a 1-in / 2-out phone line splitter.
Grounding Lug
The grounding lug provides a common grounding point for components with separate ground leads, such as turntables.
Resettable Circuit Breaker
To prevent Theatre Director from possible overload damage, we have included a resettable circuit protector. The circuit breaker will only trip if the total current draw of all connected equipment exceeds 15 amps. Should this occur, the unit is most likely overloaded. Please unplug at least one component from Theatre Director before resetting the circuit breaker.
Rack-mount Brackets
The included adjustable rack-mount brackets will allow you to mount Theatre Director into an A/V rack system should you desire to do so. To adjust the depth of the front panel in the rack system, simply align the rack-mount bracket holes on the side panels of Theatre Director’s cabinet with the corresponding holes on the brackets. Be sure to tighten the screws securely to prevent unexpected movement.
8ft. Power Cord with Right-angle Plug and O-set Cord
The extra long 8ft. power cord allows you to place Theatre Director in the most convenient location possible – right next to the components it has been designed to protect. This also allows the use of shorter coaxial, RJ45 and RJ11 cables to connect your components, which reduces cluttered cables.
The right-angle plug allows you to place your home theater system cabinet closer to the wall than standard surge protectors will allow.
The o-set cord allows you to plug Theatre Director into the top outlet of a two-outlet receptacle without blocking the lower outlet.
