RocketFish RF-PCS12ES, Quick Setup Manual

Features

ON/OFF Control - 

Controls power to all outlets. The recessed 

switch is also a 15A breaker. When an overload occurs, it will 
automatically switch off . To resume operation,ensure the overload 
condition is removed and set the switch to 

RESET.

LED indicators 

– A lit 

Protected

 amber LED indicates surge 

protection is operating normally. If it is NOT lit, it may mean a 
substantial surge event has occurred and the surge protector 
should be replaced. A lit 

Grounded

 amber LED indicates the wall 

outlet is properly grounded. If it is NOT lit, it means the outlet is not 
properly grounded and another outlet should be used to ensure 
full surge protection. When both amber LEDs are lit, it indicates 
normal operation and full surge protection.

Master

 and 

Controlled by Master 

outlets

– Computer 

peripherals continue to draw power when in standby mode. 
The 

Master

 and 

Controlled by Master 

outlet feature prevents 

energy draw by automatically shutting off  power to up to six (6) 
peripherals when the computer goes into standby mode. 

Note

: Only connect devices to the Controlled by Master outlets that are normally 

used when the master device (e.g. computer) is operating.

To use this feature, make sure the standby function on your 
computer is enabled and plug your computer into the 

Master

outlet, and plug peripherals (e.g. monitor, printer, scanner, and 
speakers) into the 

Controlled by Master

 outlets.

When your computer goes into standby mode, power will be shut 
off  to peripherals plugged into the 

Controlled by Master

 outlets. 

When the computer “awakens’”, the surge protector immediately 
supplies power to these peripherals.

To ensure this feature works properly, enable standby mode in 
your computer’s power management settings. For Windows, 
open the 

Control Panel

, select 

Power Options

, then under 

Settings for Power Schemes

, select a system standby time period. 

For Macs, open 

System Preferences

 and select 

Energy Saver

.

For Audio/Video (A/V) application: plug the primary A/V device 
(e.g. TV) into the 

Master

 outlet and plug peripherals (e.g. set-top 

box, DVD player, and amplifi er) into the 

Controlled by Master

outlets.
Some computers continue to consume more than 10W of 
power in standby mode. The 

Master

 outlet may not recognize 

the standby mode, and the outlets will not shut off . If this 
occurs, make sure Hibernate/ Sleep mode is also enabled on 
your computer under power management settings, or check 
with your computer’s manufacturer.
