Maklumat Keselamatan
Always adhere to the following safety guidelines to prevent injury or damage to the unit and connected equipment:
- Do not open the chassis. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
- Ensure the power source matches the unit's voltagkeperluan e (125 Volt AC).
- Do not exceed the maximum input current of 15 Amps.
- Install in a dry location, away from moisture and extreme temperatures.
- Pastikan pembumian yang betul untuk semua peralatan yang disambungkan.
- Putuskan kuasa sebelum membuat sebarang sambungan atau melakukan penyelenggaraan.
Persediaan
- Pemasangan: The RPC-15-S features mounting tabs for secure installation. Choose a suitable location that allows for proper ventilation and access to outlets and control wiring.
- Sambungan Kuasa: Plug the attached 6-foot NEMA 5-15P power cord into a standard 125V AC, 15A wall outlet.
- Sambungan Peralatan: Plug the equipment you wish to control into the duplex outlet on the RPC-15-S. Ensure the total current draw of connected equipment does not exceed 15 Amps.
- Vol. Rendahtage Control Wiring: Sambungkan volum rendah andatage switch or sequential control device to the terminal block on the RPC-15-S.
- Connect the control signal wire to the terminal labeled "Switch".
- Connect the common wire to the terminal labeled "Common".
- The unit provides a +24VDC output (250mA max) for powering compatible control devices, if needed.

Arahan Operasi
The RPC-15-S operates by receiving a dry contact closure signal from an external control device.
- Penunjuk Kuasa: Once the unit is plugged into an AC outlet, the "Power" LED indicator will illuminate, indicating the unit is receiving power.
- Penunjuk Perlindungan Lonjakan: On '-S' models, the "Surge Protection Active" LED will illuminate when surge protection is functional. If this light is off, the surge protection may be compromised, and the unit should be inspected.
- Pengaktifan: When the external control device provides a dry contact closure across the "Switch" and "Common" terminals, the RPC-15-S will activate the duplex outlet, supplying power to connected equipment. The "Activated" LED indicator will illuminate.
- Penyahaktifan: When the dry contact closure is opened, the RPC-15-S will deactivate the duplex outlet, cutting power to connected equipment. The "Activated" LED indicator will turn off.

Penyelenggaraan
The Lowell RPC-15-S requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure longevity:
- Pastikan unit bersih dan bebas daripada habuk. Gunakan kain lembut dan kering untuk pembersihan.
- Jangan gunakan pembersih cecair atau aerosol.
- Periksa kord kuasa dan sambungan secara berkala untuk sebarang tanda kerosakan.
- Pastikan pengudaraan yang betul di sekeliling unit.
- If the "Surge Protection Active" indicator light on '-S' models is off, the surge protection may have been compromised. Contact Lowell Manufacturing for service.
