Panamax M5500-EX Manual - Page 2

M5500-EX Front Panel Features Power Button Press and hold for 2 seconds to turn Outlet Banks 3, 4 and 5 ON or OFF. This switch is bypassed if the rear panel DC Trigger input is being used. Power LEDs Indicates the status of the rear panel outlets. LEDs for each outlet bank will be lit when the outlets are turned ON. They will flash during the startup and shutdown process. Wiring OK LED Normally On. Indicates that the wall outlet is properly grounded and Line/Neutral polarity is correct. Meter Dimmer Pushbutton control for meter LED brightness. Cycles between Off, Low, Medium and High. Voltmeter Digital LED voltmeter indicates incoming line voltages between 90-140VAC. Ammeter Shows the actual current draw (0-15A) of all your connected components, giving a visual reference as to how your system is functioning under a variety of conditions. Convenience Outlet Provides a quick convenient way to plug in components such as camcorders and video game systems.

Push to reset. Outlet Banks 3 & 4 Two switched outlets per bank. ON/OFF status is controlled by the front panel Power Button or the DC Trigger input. They will turn on immediately and turn off after 10 seconds. EMI/RFI noise filtration is provided by the Isolation Transformer in conjunction with a three-stage balanced Pi filter. Banks 3 and 4 are noise isolated from each other as well as all other outlet banks. Unsafe Voltage Indicator Normally Off. Flashes to indicate that the incoming line voltage is unsafe and the unit has disconnected the power to protect your equipment. Outlet Banks 1 & 2 Two always on outlets per bank. Power will only be turned off under a fault condition. (See specifications for over-voltage and undervoltage thresholds) Power for each bank is cleaned by a four-stage balanced Pi filter. Banks 1 and 2 are noise isolated from each other as well as all other outlet banks. Isolation Transformer Circuit Breaker Automatically opens when the combined current load for Outlet Banks 3 and 4 is greater than 4 Amps. Push to reset. Satellite TV Coax Jacks Bidirectional protection circuit optimized for satellite TV signal lines. Do not use for cable TV, off-air antennas and cable modems. Cable TV Coax Jacks Bidirectional protection circuit optimized for cable TV, off-air antennas and cable modem signal lines. Do not use for Satellite TV. 15 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER GROUND LUG RECEIVER BANK 5 DELAY ON HD DISPLAY BANK 4 BANK 3 HD AUX AC REGENERATION AC REGENERATION DVR BANK 2 DIGITAL RADIO C D DVD SUB / AMP MAIN POWER 120 VAC/15A HIGH CURRENT SWITCHED SWITCHED ALWAYS ON HD CABLE / SAT HDTV / MONITOR BANK 1 ALWAYS ON SATELLITE CATV / ANT 4 AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER SATELLITE 1 SATELLITE 2 CATV / ANT 1 CATV / ANT 2 VOLTAGE SENSE TRIGGER INPUT OUTPUT HIGH CURRENT OUTLETS TURN-ON DELAY ISOLATED OUTLETS TURN-OFF DELAY LAN LINE EQUIP.

Outlet Bank 5 Two switched, high current outlets controlled by the front panel Power Button or the DC Trigger input. Bank 5 has a 5 second turn on delay and turns off immediately. The High Current outlets provide power from a low impedance noise filtration circuit that does not limit the current to your equipment. Its output is noise isolated from all of the other outlet banks. Voltage Sense Trigger Input 3.5mm (1/8") Mini-Plug jack. Connect to a remote trigger device that uses a DC output to trigger a startup/shutdown sequence. This bypasses the front panel power switch. Important, Please Note: The unit needs to be plugged in, and in the powered OFF state before inserting the DC input trigger mini-plug. Voltage Sense Trigger Output 3.5mm (1/8") Mini-Plug jack. Connecting a trigger wire to the Voltage Sense Output jack will allow the input signal to pass through the MAX® 5500-EX to control the startup/shutdown of an additional device. High Current Outlets Delay Switch For Outlet Bank 5 Allows the outlet bank to be set as "Always ON" or with a 5 second turn-on delay Isolation Transformer Outlets Delay Switch For Outlet Banks 3 & 4 Allows the outlet banks to be set as "Always ON" or with a 5 second turn-off delay LAN Jacks Protection circuits for 10/100 baseT Ethernet lines. Incoming LAN line MUST be plugged into the LINE jack. Patch cord to the equipment MUST be plugged into the EQUIP jacks. Phone Jacks Protection circuits for standard telephone or payper-view lines. Phone circuit is auto-resetting. Incoming phone cord MUST be plugged into the LINE jack. Patch cords to the equipment (satellite receiver, digital video recorder, telephone, etc.) MUST be plugged into the EQUIP jacks. Note to CATV Installers: This reminder is provided to call attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC. That article provides specific guidelines for proper grounding. It specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building and as close to the point of entry as practical.
