Important!
Plus-X channels take the place of normal I/O channels. If a metering input, status
input, or command relay is connected to an ARC Plus channel and a Plus-X parameter is
subsequently mapped to that channel, the I/O channel will no longer be displayed.

Restoring Default Configuration
If at any time you wish to restore the default configuration of the Plus-X AC-8, including the IP
address, use a pen or other small object to press the rear panel
Master Init
button three times
in 10 seconds. (The button on some units may be labeled
Config
). The power LED blinks to
confirm the configuration has been reset.
Disabling Rear Panel Control Inputs and/or Front Panel Control
The front panel pushbutton controls and the rear
panel control inputs can be disabled by
disengaging jumpers at J15 and J14. To locate
these jumpers, disconnect power from the Plus-X
AC-8 and remove the top cover. The jumpers are
located near the bottom right corner of the board,
directly above the Burk Technology logo.
Rear panel control inputs are enabled when the J15 jumper is engaged (connected to both pins)
and disabled when the jumper is removed or connected to only one pin.
Front panel pushbutton control is enabled when the J14 jumper is engaged (connected to both
pins) and disabled when the jumper is removed or connected to only one pin.
Rear Panel Outlet Connections
Site equipment connects to the rear panel 120V outlets as it would to any wall outlet or power
strip. Outlet 1 is offset to accommodate AC/DC wall adapters. To connect additional wall
adapters to the remaining outlets, Burk Technology recommends using 12” extension cords
designed for this purpose.
Operation
Outlet control is accomplished via any of four methods: front panel pushbuttons, ARC
Plus/AutoPilot Plus connectivity, onboard web server, and/or external contract closure signaling.
Pushbutton Actuation
The front panel pushbuttons provide local outlet control with LED indication of whether the outlet
is currently powered. Commands issued via pushbutton follow the outlet behavior settings set
up during configuration (pulse on, pulse off or latching).
