Installation  
ConnectYour Surge Suppressor to the AC Power Line: Plug the surge suppressors power cord into a standard, 3-wire  
grounded 120V AC outlet. Once plugged in, the unit will be powered.There is no power control button or function for this  
surge suppressor.  
CheckYour Surge Suppressor’s Diagnostic Indicator Lights: Check your diagnostic LEDs prior to connecting your equipment.  
They will indicate various operating conditions when the surge suppressor is plugged into a live 120V AC outlet.  
AC POWER LED (Red): Indicates the power status (ON/OFF) of the unit.  
“PROTECTED” LED (Green): Indicates the surge suppression components are intact and providing complete protection against  
surges. If this LED does not illuminate, some of the surge suppression components are not functioning, and the unit should be  
“GROUNDED” LED (Red): Indicates wall outlet is grounded and surge protection can properly function. If this light DOES NOT  
illuminate and power is present, consult a qualified electrician to examine your outlets wiring.  
“STATUS LEDs” (Green): Indicates that AC power is present in that Always On” outlet.  
IR LED (Blue): Indicates that the unit is receiving a signal from your remote.  
ConnectYour Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Appropriate AC Outlets: Plug your equipments power cords into the  
surge suppressors AC outlets. DO NOT plug in extension cords. DO NOT OVERLOAD the surge suppressors outlets.The surge  
suppressor can accommodate a total equipment load of up to 15 amps (whether plugged into a single outlet or spread out  
over multiple outlets). If the load on the surge suppressor exceeds 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip and the outlets will  
stop providing power. If the circuit breaker trips, reduce the load by unplugging some devices. Depress the circuit breaker to  
reset.  
IMPORTANT CONNECTION NOTES  
It is important to note that your surge suppressor has “Power Save” and Always On” outlets. “Power Save” outlets will  
have AC power cut to them approximately 3 minutes after the GREEN “Power Save” technology detects that total power  
consumption in the “Power Save” outlets has dropped 70%. “Power Save” outlets are recommended for intermittent-use  
devices such asTVs, receivers, monitors, printers, scanners, lamps, DVD players, gaming consoles, amplifiers and speaker  
systems.  
Always On” outlets provide continuous power even after the “Power Save” outlets are turned OFF. These outlets are  
recommended for critical devices such as modems, routers, external drives, cordless phones, fax machines, DVRs (TiVo®),  
cable and satellite boxes.  
ConnectYour Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Phone Jacks (Optional Installation): Connect a phone cable from the wall  
jack directly to the surge suppressors RJ-style phone jack labeled “IN.” Connect a phone cable from the surge suppressors  
RJ-style phone jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected. All models with phone line surge protection protect  
devices on a single line only.The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected in line from the wall jack.The surge  
suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire, grounded AC outlet for phone line surge protection to work.  
ConnectYour Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Network Jacks* (Optional Installation): Connect a data cord from the wall  
jack or cable/DSL modem directly to the surge suppressors network jack labeled “IN.” Connect a data cord from the surge  
suppressors network jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected (typically a computers network interface card).  
The surge suppressor must always be the first item connected in line from the Ethernet source (typically a wall jack).The surge  
suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire grounded AC outlet for network line surge protection to work.  
* 10/100 BaseT/TX,Token Ring. Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.  
ConnectYour Equipment to the Surge Suppressor’s Coaxial Jacks (Optional Installation): Connect a coaxial cable from the wall  
jack directly to the surge suppressors F” style coaxial jack labeled “IN.” Connect a coaxial cable from the surge suppressors  
“F” style coaxial jack labeled “OUT” directly to the device to be protected. Select models include a second set of coaxial jacks  
for simultaneous connection and protection of devices on two separate lines (cable, antenna or satellite).The surge suppressor  
must always be the first item connected in line from the coaxial wall jack.The surge suppressor must be plugged into a 3-wire  
grounded AC outlet for coaxial line surge protection to work.

Operation  
1. Plug the AV10IRG into an appropriate AC power source. By plugging in the unit,  
you have powered it ON (there is no ON/OFF function button to press). Power  
will now be supplied to the 3 Always On” outlets and any components plugged  
into them can be turned ON. Each Always On” outlets corresponding LED will  
illuminate.  
2. Use any IR remote to turn ON the GREEN “Power Save” outlets. Like a gate  
being opened, AC power is now present in the 7 “Power Save” outlets.  
IMPORTANT IR REMOTE NOTE: Any standard IR remote will work with  
the AV10IRG.There is absolutely no need for additional programming of  
this remote as long as it is a standard IR remote.  
3. Once the GREEN “Power Save” outlets have been powered ON, any  
components plugged into these outlets can be switched ON, using your master  
remote, their individual remote controls or manually.  
4. After plugging the unit in and plugging in devices to the “Power Save” outlets,  
you will notice that the blue LED panel will display amperage readings from the  
7 “Power Save” outlets that are based on the load you have connected. DO NOT  
OVERLOAD the surge suppressor with more than 15 amps! If any of the LEDs or  
Note: If the surge suppressor is overloaded with more than 15 amps, the circuit breaker will trip.  
Reduce the load connected to the surge suppressor and press in the circuit breaker button located on  
the side panel to reset the system.  
DO NOT EXCEED 15 AMPS.  
5. To activate the GREEN “Power Save” function, simply turn OFF components  
plugged into the “Power Save” outlets.The surge suppressors technology will  
close the gate that provides AC power to these outlets approximately 3 minutes  
after it detects a 70% drop in power consumption. Once this gate has closed,  
power is no longer present in the “Power Save” outlets and phantom loads  
(wasted electricity) have been eliminated.  
IMPORTANT POWER NOTE:You can turn peripherals plugged into  
“Power Save” outlets OFF at any time, however AC power will continue  
to flow to these outlets until three minutes after the GREEN technology  
detects a 70% drop in total power consumption. Power is continuously  
provided to Always On” outlets until the AV10IRG is unplugged.
