TrickleStar 183SS-US-8XX Motion Sensor Power Strip User Manual

1. Inngangur

The TrickleStar 183SS-US-8XX Motion Sensor Power Strip is designed to help reduce energy consumption by automatically switching power to connected devices based on motion detection and the power state of a primary control device. This power strip also provides surge protection for your electronics.

Helstu eiginleikar eru:

• Ceramic Surge Protection
• LED Status Indication (Surge Status, Switched Outlets)
• Less than 40dB noise filtering
• Angled space saver plug
• Heavy duty cord

2. Öryggisupplýsingar

Vinsamlegast lesið og skiljið allar öryggisleiðbeiningar áður en þessi vara er notuð. Ef þessum leiðbeiningum er ekki fylgt getur það valdið raflosti, eldsvoða eða alvarlegum meiðslum.

• Do not exceed the electrical ratings of the power strip (1800 watts, 15 amps).
• Ekki nota í röku umhverfi eða nálægt vatni.
• Ekki stinga í annan tilfæranlegan rafmagnskrana.
• Do not use with aquariums or life support equipment.
• Ensure the power strip is properly grounded.
• Haldið börnum frá rafmagnssnúrunni og tengdum tækjum.
• Do not open or modify the power strip. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

3. Vöru lokiðview

The TrickleStar 183SS-US-8XX features different types of outlets and indicators:

• Stjórna úttak: One outlet (typically black) designed for a primary device (e.g., TV, computer). The power state of this device influences the 'Switched' outlets.
• Alltaf á útsölustöðum: Two outlets that provide continuous power, independent of the control outlet or motion sensor, as long as the main power switch is on.
• Skiptar innstungur: Four outlets that receive power only when the device in the Control Outlet is active AND motion is detected by the sensor.
• Hreyfiskynjari: An external sensor connected via a cable, detecting movement to activate the 'Switched' outlets.
• Power Switch/Circuit Breaker: A 2-in-1 rocket switch that controls the main power and acts as a 15 amp resettable circuit breaker.
• LED Vísar: Lights indicating 'Switched' outlet status and 'Surge' protection status.

4. Uppsetning

1. Staðsetning: Place the power strip on a stable surface or mount it using the integrated wall mount feature.
2. Connect Motion Sensor: Ensure the motion sensor's cable is securely plugged into its designated port on the power strip.
3. Plug in Primary Device: Connect your primary device (e.g., TV, computer, monitor) into the Control Outlet. The power state of this device is crucial for the functionality of the 'Switched' outlets.
4. Plug in Controlled Devices: Connect devices you wish to be controlled by motion and the primary device (e.g., speakers, lamps, chargers) into the Skipt um innstungur.
5. Plug in Always-On Devices: Connect devices that require continuous power (e.g., modem, router, DVR) into the Always On Outlets.
6. Position Motion Sensor: Position the motion sensor in an area where it can effectively detect movement within its range (up to 1.2 meters). Avoid placing it behind obstacles or in direct sunlight.
7. Tengjast við innstungu: Plug the power strip's angled space saver plug into a standard grounded wall outlet.
8. Kveikt á: Flip the 2-in-1 power ON/OFF rocket switch to the 'ON' position.

5. Notkunarleiðbeiningar

The TrickleStar 183SS-US-8XX operates based on the interaction between the Control Outlet, Motion Sensor, and the main power switch.

• Aðalrofa: This switch controls power to all outlets. When in the 'ON' position, the 'Always On' outlets are active, and the 'Control' and 'Switched' outlets are ready for operation. It also functions as a resettable 15 amp aflrofi.
• Control Outlet Functionality: The 'Switched' outlets will only receive power if the device plugged into the 'Control Outlet' is powered ON. If the control device is off, the 'Switched' outlets will remain off, regardless of motion detection.
• Virkjun hreyfiskynjara: Once the device in the 'Control Outlet' is ON, the motion sensor will detect movement. Upon detection, the 'Switched' outlets will activate, providing power to connected devices.
• Sjálfvirk lokun: If no motion is detected for a predetermined period (typically a few minutes, though not user-adjustable on this model), and the control device remains on, the 'Switched' outlets will power off to save energy. They will reactivate upon new motion detection.
• LED Vísar:
  • Surge LED (Green): When lit, this indicates that the surge protection is active and functioning correctly. If this light is off, the surge protection may have been compromised, and the power strip should be replaced.
  • Skipt LED: This light indicates the power status of the 'Switched' outlets. It will be lit when the 'Switched' outlets are receiving power.

6. Viðhald

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your power strip.

• Þrif: Disconnect the power strip from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
• Athugun á bylgjuvörn: Periodically check the 'Surge' LED indicator. If it is off, the surge protection has been exhausted, and the unit will no longer protect against surges. Replace the power strip immediately.
• Forðastu ofhleðslu: Do not connect devices that collectively exceed the power strip's maximum wattage (1800 watts) or ampaldur (15 amps). Overloading can trip the circuit breaker or damage the unit.

7. Bilanagreining

If you encounter issues with your TrickleStar power strip, refer to the following common solutions:

• No Power to Any Outlets:
  • Check if the main power switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Press the resettable circuit breaker button if it has popped out.
  • Gakktu úr skugga um að rafmagnssnúran sé örugglega tengd í virkandi innstungu.
• Switched Outlets Not Activating:
  • Verify that the primary device in the 'Control Outlet' is powered ON.
  • Check the motion sensor's placement. Ensure it has a clear line of sight and is not obstructed.
  • Confirm the motion sensor cable is securely connected to the power strip.
  • Allow a few seconds for the motion sensor to detect movement.
• Surge LED is Off:
  • This indicates that the surge protection component has been consumed. The power strip will no longer provide surge protection. It is recommended to replace the unit to ensure continued protection for your devices.
• Circuit Breaker Trips Frequently:
  • You may be overloading the power strip. Disconnect some devices, especially high-wattage appliances (e.g., heaters exceeding 750 watts), and try resetting the breaker. The maximum capacity is 1800 watts.
