Connecting the Super Series Surge Suppressor
Connection To Telephone Line (Select Models Only)
Super Series PLUS TEL and DELUXE models have two female RJ-style phone jacks that accept
connection of a wide range of equipment with male RJ-style plugs. These models provide 2-wire/
single telephone line protection. PLUS TEL and DELUXE models MUST always be the FIRST
item connected in line from the telephone jack. They MUST always be plugged into a 3-wire
grounded outlet for the telephone protection to work. Connect the phone cord from the wall jack
directly to the jack labelled "IN" (or "LINE"). Connect the phone cord from the device to be
protected directly to the jack labelled "OUT" (or "EQUIP"). The connected equipment is now
protected against spikes, surges and line noise on the telephone line.
Connection To Coaxial Line (Select Models Only)
Super Series PLUS COAX models have two "F" connector jacks that accept connection of
equipment with coaxial cables. PLUS COAX models MUST always be the FIRST item connected
in line from the coaxial jack. PLUS COAX models MUST always be plugged into a 3-wire
grounded outlet for the coaxial protection to work. Connect the coaxial cable from the wall jack
directly to the PLUS COAX jack labelled "LINE" (or "IN"). Connect the coaxial cable from
the device to be protected directly to the PLUS COAX jack labelled "EQUIP" (or "OUT"). The
connected equipment is now protected against spikes, surges and line noise on the coaxial cable.
Connecting Equipment
After you have properly connected your Super Series Surge Suppressor to the AC line (and
telephone and coaxial line, if applicable), you can connect the AC power cords of equipment to
the surge suppressor. DO NOT OVERLOAD the surge suppressor. Connect loads having a total
current draw of up to 15 amps. Each outlet can handle up to 15 amps, but do not exceed a total
load of 15 amps for all outlets. If the circuit breaker trips, remove overload and depress circuit
breaker button to reset.
Features
Circuit Breaker (All Models)
If the current draw of the equipment connected to the Super Series Surge Suppressor exceeds 15
amps for longer than a few seconds, the circuit breaker will open (trip) to prevent any possible
damage. When the circuit breaker trips, the plunger will be extended. Allow the breaker to cool
for one minute before depressing the plunger to reset.
Illuminated "ON/OFF" Switch (Select Models)
With the Super Series Surge Suppressor plugged into a 120V AC outlet, this switch will
illuminate RED whenever moved to the "ON" position. This indicates 120V AC power is present
at the unit's AC receptacles.
Diagnostic Indicator Lights
There are up to three LEDs on the front panel that indicate various operating parameters when the
unit is plugged into a live 120V AC outlet.
• Protection Present (Green LED) (All Models)
Indicates the surge suppression components are intact and providing full protection against
spikes and surges. This LED should be illuminated anytime the "ON/OFF" switch is
turned ON and power is present as indicated by the lighted power switch. If the Protection
Present LED does not illuminate, then some of the surge suppression components are not
functioning and the unit should be returned for repair as soon as possible. You may still use
the unit; however, connected equipment will be protected from spikes and surges at a lesser
level than normal.
