Setting Up the
EmberCeptor PC™
To maximise your energy saving,
please ensure your computer’s power
management settings are active so
the computer enters sleep, standby
or hibernate modes. Normally this
function is found in a menu in a PC,
called ‘Power Options’.
In an iMac, ‘Energy Saver’ is used to
tell the computer when to go to sleep.
Other option is to send your Mac to
sleep, close the lid on your portable Mac
or press the on/o button once on your
desktop Mac.
Connect your computer power plug
into the socket marked ‘Computer Only’.
NOTE: Only one computer is to
be connected to the ‘Computer
Only’ socket.
Identify the equipment that is used with
the computer, such as monitors, printers,
speakers, external hard drives and lamps,
and plug them into the socket marked
‘Power Saver’.
NOTE: Where there is more than
one device that needs to be
connected, any power board,
powerstrip, trailing socket or surge
board may be connected to the
‘Power Saver’ socket.
