(FG427)
OVERVIEW
The PCS2 Dual Power Current Sensor detects the 110 VAC current
drawn by equipment plugged into the onboard AC receptacles,
and the LED status indicators assist with monitoring system
applications. The PCS2 features adjustable sensing levels for high
(full-on), low (standby), and no-power (off) power levels for up to
two devices and comes complete with a built-in power supply.

The PCS2 is ideal for determining the status of controlled sources
such as video projectors, monitors, AV receivers, DVD players and
other devices.
