On outlet or Power Save (Switched) outlet.

Note: The Always On outlets will provide constant

power. The Power Save (Switched) outlets, will be
controlled by the A/V PowerSaver Pro. The On-Off
cycle will depend on the current consumption of the
Power Save outlets.

2. Connect the phone (RJ11) cable, Ethernet (RJ45)
cable and coaxial (RG59) cable to the A/V PowerSaver
Pro for surge protection.

4. Turn on an appliance connected to the Power Save
(Switched) outlets.

Note: The display will show the cumulative power

consumption of the Power Save outlets only.

5. The A/V PowerSaver Pro will automatically detect
variations of total power consumption and if the
total power consumption lowers by over 70% for 3
consecutive minutes the Power Save (Switched)
outlets will be turned off and the A/V PowerSaver
Pro will be placed into standby mode.

Note: Only the Power Save (Switched) outlets are
turned off, the Always On outlets are still on.
