3. Producto terminadoview

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

• Salida de control: One outlet (typically black) designed for a primary device (e.g., TV, computer). The power state of this device influences the 'Switched' outlets.
• Siempre en puntos de venta: Two outlets that provide continuous power, independent of the control outlet or motion sensor, as long as the main power switch is on.
• Salidas conmutadas: Four outlets that receive power only when the device in the Control Outlet is active AND motion is detected by the sensor.
• Sensor de movimiento: 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 disyuntor reiniciable.
• Indicadores LED: Lights indicating 'Switched' outlet status and 'Surge' protection status.

4. Configuración

1. Colocación: Place the power strip on a stable surface or mount it using the integrated wall mount feature.
2. Conectar el sensor de movimiento: 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 Salida de control. 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 Tomas conmutadas.
5. Plug in Always-On Devices: Connect devices that require continuous power (e.g., modem, router, DVR) into the Enchufes siempre activos.
6. Sensor de movimiento de posición: 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. Conéctese al tomacorriente de pared: Plug the power strip's angled space saver plug into a standard grounded wall outlet.
8. Encendido: Flip the 2-in-1 power ON/OFF rocket switch to the 'ON' position.

5. Instrucciones de funcionamiento

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

• Interruptor principal: 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 cortacircuitos.
• 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.
• Activación del sensor de movimiento: 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.
• Cierre automático: 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.
• Indicadores LED:
  • 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.
  • LED conmutado: This light indicates the power status of the 'Switched' outlets. It will be lit when the 'Switched' outlets are receiving power.

6. Mantenimiento

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

• Limpieza: Desconecte la regleta de la toma de corriente antes de limpiarla. Utilice un paño seco y suave para limpiar el exterior. No utilice limpiadores líquidos ni disolventes.
• Verificación de protección contra sobretensiones: 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.
• Evite la sobrecarga: Do not connect devices that collectively exceed the power strip's maximum wattage (1800 watts) or ampedad (15 amps). Overloading can trip the circuit breaker or damage the unit.

7. Solución de problemas

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

• No Power to Any Outlets:
  • Compruebe si el interruptor de alimentación principal está en la posición “ON”.
  • Press the resettable circuit breaker button if it has popped out.
  • Asegúrese de que la regleta de enchufes esté enchufada de forma segura a una toma de corriente que funcione.
• 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.
• El disyuntor se dispara con frecuencia:
  • 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.
