Operating Instructions
1. Install in a standard 19" rack or free-standing position.
2. Connect Power Distribution power cord into a 20 amp,
120 volt wall outlet (15 amp for Model PD11SS).
3. Plug sensitive electrical equipment into conditioned

outlets. All models have an additional protected outlet on
the front panel.

4. Move power outlet switch to "ON" position to provide

power to electrical equipment.

5. For illumination, pull out light tubes (PD11LP/LVP/LVSP)

and move light switch to "HI" or "LOW" position.
IMPORTANT! Be sure light switch is in "OFF"
position when light tubes are recessed.

6. Digital voltmeter readout (PD11VP/LVP/LVSP) is

calibrated to nominal 117V at the factory. No adjustment
necessary.

7. Digital voltmeter readout automatically displays

incoming voltage when power cord is connected.

Power Problems

Standard AC outlets often supply raw and unprocessed

power that not only can diminish the clarity of audio signals
and cause premature failure of parts, it can completely de-
stroy your valuable equipment.

Power problems such as spikes, line surges and noise

interference transmit through all standard electrical lines and
affect power quality: therefore, affecting you.

Solutions

Conditioned Power Distribution can eliminate such prob-

lems from affecting you. As it filters the line voltage from your
AC outlets, eliminating noise and interference, such as radio
frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic interfer-
ence (EMI), it will reduce the residual noise in the system,
which will enhance audio clarity.

Installation Requirements

PD11P, PD11VP, PD11LP, PD11SP, PD11LVP, PD11LVSP
Plug unit into power source and observe status of four
"Protection" light emitting diodes. The (green) “1st Stage”,
“2nd Stage”, and “GROUND OK” L.E.D.’s should normally
be illuminated and the (red) “FAULT” L.E.D. should be off.
When these indications are present, test the power “On/Off”
switch which will illuminate to indicate that power is being
supplied to the switched outlets on the rear of the unit.

A. The “1st Stage” and “2nd Stage” L.E.D.’s indicate that
both the input (1st) and output (2nd) stages of circuit
protection are active.
B. The “GROUND OK” L.E.D. indicates that the chassis
is connected to the ground wire of the supply outlet.
C. Fault conditions are represented by the following
indications:

NOTE: On the PD11SS Model a green L.E.D. located on the
front panel is illuminated (indicating “Protection On” status)
when unit is plugged into a power source ensuring input and
output stages of circuit protection are active.

Audio Conditioned Power Distribution is also designed to

protect electronic equipment from potentially damaging high-
voltage spikes and surges.

Sequencing Audio Conditioned Power Distribution is de-

signed to initiate a turn-on cycle, energizing one circuit
immediately with remaining circuits energizing in a delayed
fashion. This allows circuits to stabilize when powering up and
down eliminating that on-rush of power and potential damage
to equipment at output receptacle.

Programming Time Delays

The PD11SP, PD11SS and PD11LVSP come from the
factory set to a 1-second delay for each of the four outlets
to turn on. The following instruction will enable you to
change the amount of time between each outlet turn on.

• The main power switch must be on
• The sequenced outlets must not be active
• The switches to change the delay time are to left
of the unit and they have green L.E.D.s in the
switch.
• The switches are labeled POWER DOWN/UP
and OFF/ON PRESETS
• The POWER DOWN/OFF is the left switch
• The POWER UP/DOWN is the switch to the right

Programming Preset Time Delays
Step 1: Depress and hold the DOWN/OFF switch
Step 2: Depress and hold the UP/ON switch
Step 3: Red L.E.D. to the right of the switches will

start to flash

Step 4: When flashing red L.E.D. goes out, release

both switches

Step 5: Both green L.E.D.s on the switches will start

to flash rapidly

Step 6: You are in program mode at this time
Step 7: The red L.E.D.s to the right indicate what the

time delay is set for:

L.E.D. 1 = 1 second delay
L.E.D. 2 = 5 second delay
L.E.D. 3 = 10 second delay
L.E.D. 4 = 30 second delay

Step 8: Depress the UP/ON switch to the right to

increase the time delay

Step 9: Depress the OFF/DOWN switch to the left to

decrease the time delay

Step 10:Depress both OFF and ON switches to finish

the delay programming

Programming Manual Time Delays
Step 1: Follow above instruction to activate L.E.D. 4
Step 2: Depress the UP/ON switch one more time to

activate manual programming time delay
mode

Step 3: All 4 red L.E.D.s to the right will be lit to

indicate manual mode

Step 4: The UP/ON switch green L.E.D. will be lit
Step 5: Depress the UP/ON switch to start manual

delay programming—can program from 5
sec. to 240 sec. delay

Step 6: Depress the OFF/DOWN to stop the manual

delay timing

Step 7: Depress both the OFF and ON switches to

finish programming mode
