FEATURE OVERVIEW

1. Power Switch and LED:

Pushbutton; activates a turn-
on or shutdown sequence for
the Isolated and High-Current
outlets.   The Green LED will
be illuminated when the unit is
plugged into an AC outlet and
the power switch is in the
“ON” position.  The LED flash-
es during the outlet turn-on
and turn-off delay periods.

2. Meter Lights Switch:

Pushbutton; controls
brightness of the Ammeter
and Voltmeter backlighting.
Cycles among five settings;
High Blue, Low Blue, High
Amber, Low Amber, OFF

3. LED Indicators:

Switched Outlets, Voltage
Trigger, Unsafe Voltage,
Isolated Power and
Balanced Power status
indicators.

4. Filtered Outlet Banks
1& 2:

Four, Always-On,

Balanced Double L filtered
outlets for low current ana-
log audio components such
as pre-amplifiers, receivers,
VCR's and tape decks.  Two
outlets per filter bank.

14. Trigger
Enable Switch:

Enables or disables
the DC Trigger
input function. 

16. Trigger Delay
Switch:

Sets the

delay time (0 or 10
seconds) between
receiving a DC trigger
input signal and when
the M5510-Pro sends
its DC Trigger output
signal. 

17. Isolated
Outlets Delay
Switch:

3-position

slide switch.  Allows
adjustment of the
Turn-Off delay for
the 4 Isolation
Transformer Outlets.
Choose between
“always-on”, and 
10 seconds. 

15. High-Current Outlet Delay Switch:

3-position slide switch.  Allows adjustment of the
Turn-On delay for the 2 Delayed High Current
Outlets.  Choose between 0 and 10 seconds. 

9. Satellite Coax Jacks:

Two pairs of F-Connectors 
optimized for Satellite TV 
signal line protection.  

8. Line Level
Audio/Video Jacks: 

Color-

coded RCA jacks, female, 5
pair.  Use to protect the main
system from backdoor surges
coming in on the signal lines. 

19. CATV Coax Jacks:

One pair of F-Connectors
optimized for Cable TV,
Antenna or Cable Modem
signal line protection.

12. DC Trigger Input:

3.5mm (1/8”) Mini-Plug
jack.  Connect to a
remote trigger device that
uses a DC voltage signal
to initiate a startup/shut-
down sequence. 

13. DC Trigger Output:

3.5mm (1/8”) Mini-Plug jack.
The M5510-Pro can generate its
own 12VDC trigger to control
another device. 

6. Voltmeter:

Backlit analog meter
measures incoming
voltage source from
0-150 VAC.

5. Ammeter: 

Backlit analog meter
measures current
draw for connected
equipment. 

7: Convenience Outlet:

Provides a quick convenient
way to plug in components
such as camcorders and video
game systems.

10. IEC Main
Power Receptacle:

Detachable power cord
connects to this recep-
tacle. 

1. 15A Main Circuit
Breaker:

Opens in the

event that equipment
plugged into the MAX
5500 draws too much
current.  When white is
visible, the breaker has
opened.  Reduce the 
load and push to reset.

11. Ground Lug:

Provides

a common grounding point
for equipment with separate
ground leads

2. High Current Outlet
Bank: 

Two delayed outlets

designed for high current
components such as 
amplifiers and powered
subwoofers.  The current
available to connected
equipment is not limited 
by the noise filtration 
components. 

3. Isolated (Switched)
Outlets:

Four outlets provide

complete isolation for digital
source components such as
DVD players or display devices
like plasma TVs or DLP 
projectors.  These outlets are
completely isolated from the
rest of the system.

4. AC Regeneration
Control and LED
Indicators:

Select either Isolated
Power Mode and
Balanced Power Mode
for your digital source
components or video
display device

5. Isolated Outlets
Circuit Breaker:

Opens in the event that
equipment connected
to the Isolation
Transformer Outlets
exceeds 6 amps cur-
rent draw.  When white
is visible, the breaker
has opened. Reduce
the load and push to
reset.

6. RS232
Control
Interface:

DB-9

male connector.
Use to connect the
M5510-Pro to a
home automation
system.

7. Lamp
Receptacle:

USB jack.  The
convenience
lamp included
with the
M5510-Pro is
to illuminate
the rear panels
of other com-
ponents during
setup.

18. LAN/Telephone Jacks:

In/Out connections for Ethernet,
telephone line or pay-per-view
line protection.
