Manuel d'utilisation de la multiprise à détecteur de mouvement TrickleStar 183SS-US-8XX

1. Introduction

The TrickleStar 183SS-US-8XX Motion Sensor Power Strip is designed to help reduce energy consumption by automatically switching power to connected devices based on motion detection and the power state of a primary control device. This power strip also provides surge protection for your electronics.

Les principales caractéristiques comprennent :

• Ceramic Surge Protection
• LED Status Indication (Surge Status, Switched Outlets)
• Less than 40dB noise filtering
• Angled space saver plug
• Heavy duty cord

2. Consignes de sécurité

Veuillez lire et comprendre toutes les consignes de sécurité avant d'utiliser ce produit. Le non-respect de ces consignes peut entraîner un choc électrique, un incendie ou des blessures graves.

• Do not exceed the electrical ratings of the power strip (1800 watts, 15 amp(s).
• Ne pas utiliser dans des environnements humides ou à proximité de l'eau.
• Ne pas brancher sur une autre prise d'alimentation amovible.
• Do not use with aquariums or life support equipment.
• Assurez-vous que la multiprise est correctement mise à la terre.
• Keep children away from the power strip and connected devices.
• Do not open or modify the power strip. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

3. Produit terminéview

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

• Sortie de contrôle : One outlet (typically black) designed for a primary device (e.g., TV, computer). The power state of this device influences the 'Switched' outlets.
• Prises toujours actives : Two outlets that provide continuous power, independent of the control outlet or motion sensor, as long as the main power switch is on.
• Prises commutées : Four outlets that receive power only when the device in the Control Outlet is active AND motion is detected by the sensor.
• Capteur de mouvement : 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 Disjoncteur réarmable.
• Indicateurs LED : Lights indicating 'Switched' outlet status and 'Surge' protection status.

4. Installation

1. Placement: Place the power strip on a stable surface or mount it using the integrated wall mount feature.
2. Connecter le capteur de mouvement : 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 Prise de contrôle. 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 Prises commutées.
5. Plug in Always-On Devices: Connect devices that require continuous power (e.g., modem, router, DVR) into the Prises toujours alimentées.
6. Capteur de mouvement de position : 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. Connectez-vous à une prise murale : Plug the power strip's angled space saver plug into a standard grounded wall outlet.
8. Mise sous tension : Flip the 2-in-1 power ON/OFF rocket switch to the 'ON' position.

5. Mode d'emploi

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

• Interrupteur d'alimentation 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 disjoncteur.
• 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.
• Activation du capteur de mouvement : 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.
• Arrêt automatique: 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.
• Indicateurs 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 commutée : This light indicates the power status of the 'Switched' outlets. It will be lit when the 'Switched' outlets are receiving power.

6. Entretien

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

• Nettoyage: Débranchez la multiprise de la prise murale avant de la nettoyer. Essuyez l'extérieur avec un chiffon doux et sec. N'utilisez pas de nettoyants liquides ni de solvants.
• Vérification de la protection contre les surtensions : 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.
• Évitez la surcharge : Do not connect devices that collectively exceed the power strip's maximum wattage (1800 watts) or ampère (15 amps). Overloading can trip the circuit breaker or damage the unit.

7. Dépannage

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

• No Power to Any Outlets:
  • Check if the main power switch is in the 'ON' position.
  • Press the resettable circuit breaker button if it has popped out.
  • Assurez-vous que la multiprise est correctement branchée dans une prise murale fonctionnelle.
• 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.
• Déclenchement fréquent du disjoncteur :
  • 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.
