Instruction Manual

Control Connections
Control of the switched receptacles can be accomplished by using a switch (contact
closure), another SurgeX product such as the SEQ, or by an applied voltage (5 to
30 volts DC). When using a switch, choose a switch with gold contacts for the best
long-term reliability. The most convenient way of controlling the unit is to use a
SurgeX switch plate which are available with either a rocker switch or a keylock
switch, and also include a red indicator light.
Connections are made to terminal block pins 1, 2 & 3 as follows:
• Connect switch contacts, a contact closure, or SurgeX control to pins 1 and 2.
Or:
• Connect an applied DC voltage to pins 2 and 3. The positive must be connected
to pin 2 and the negative must be connected to pin 3.
Remote Indicator LED
Connecting the Remote LED is optional. If you are using a SurgeX switch plate
which has a built in LED and resistor simply connect it as per the instructions
supplied with the switch plate. An LED connected to pins 4 and 5 will indicate
when the switched receptacles are on. 10mA of current is available at this output,
but you
must use a series resistor if you are using your own LED. For most LEDs
a 1K resistor will provide suitable brightness. If you need less brightness use a
larger value of resistor, and if you need more brightness use a smaller value of
resistor.
• Connect the LED positive wire to Pin 4
• Connect the LED negative wire to pin 5
