It is capable of complete power on/off management in the most complicated Audio or Home Theater Systems.
I N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C I O N T R O L L E R N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C O N T R O L L E R TOOLS REQUIRED • 1/8" Standard Slotted Screwdriver • Wire Stripper 3 Features and Benefits The IPC-6 offers unique technology never before available. ● Advanced microprocessor design allows unparalleled flexibility and control. ● The IPC-6 AccusenseTM circuitry automatically “locks on” to tiny differences in power consumption between a component’s “on” and “standby” states.
I N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C O N T R O L L E R Installation Considerations IMPORTANT Do not exceed 1500 watts of total power consumption for the devices plugged into each IPC-6. IMPORTANT Do not connect 120 volt AC power to the C1 and C2 terminals, they are low voltage only! Do not connect any signal higher than 30 volts to the trigger inputs! 5 N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C O N T R O L L E R with a switched AC outlet on the IPC-6.
I N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C I O N T R O L L E R N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C O N T R O L L E R Press the PROGRAM and the SELECT buttons at the same time to enter the PS program mode. The SELECT button steps you through programming each outlet's amount of delay—first for turning on (the on light is lit), then for turning off (the off light is lit). PROGRAM LED Indicates the IPC-6 is in one of the program modes. ON AND OFF LEDS POWER LED Indicates the IPC-6 has power.

Turning off the device plugged into one of these outlets will trigger the corresponding (A or B) OFF sequence. POWER CORD Plugs directly into the wall AC outlet.

All the lights on the front panel will light for 2 seconds while the IPC-6’s microprocessor checks all conditions. If everything is ok, all but the red POWER LED will turn off. You are now ready to program your IPC-6.
I N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C O N T R O L L E R by current. After the sequencing stops, the ON LED should be blinking. This means that the IPC-6 is ready to measure the device’s “on” state. 3. Turn on the device. The front panel LED's will sequence to the left and right while the AccusenseTM circuitry measures your device. After the sequencing of the LED's stops the OFF LED will blink. 4. Turn off the device.
I N T E L L I G E N T P O W E R C O N T R O L L E R the display allow you to adjust the delay from 0 to 99 seconds. 3. Press the SELECT button to lock in your programming and move to the next outlet. Repeat steps 1-3 for outlets 2 through 6 and C1, C2. Pressing the SELECT button after you have programmed C2 enables you to program the "off" time delays. If you elect not to program one or more of the outlets, you will still need to press SELECT until you have gone past C2 to program the "off" times.
