Over-Voltage Shutdown
immediately shuts off all outlets if the AC voltage rises above the
preset voltage. The default is 150V but this can be set from 135V to 150V.
Under-Voltage Shutdown
shuts off all outlets if the voltage falls below the preset voltage. The
default is 95V but this can be set from 90V to 105V.
Over-Current Shutdown
shuts off all outlets if the current exceeds the preset current. Once this
has been triggered, the unit will stay off. The over-current shutdown should not be set too close
to the actual current as this could cause an inadvertent shutdown.
Over-Temperature Shutdown
shuts off all outlets if the temperature sensed by the external
temperature sensor exceeds the preset temperature.
Self-Test Failure
shuts off all outlets in the unlikely event that the internal surge protection
circuitry fails. This action can be selected to be enforced or ignored.
*A Self-Test failure
detection may be incorrectly triggered during an extreme under-voltage event. If pressing
“Clear Shutdown” on the Setup/Outlets page returns the Surge Protection Status to Good, there
was an incorrect detection of a Self-Test failure. In the unlikely event that the Surge Protection
Status maintains a Failed state after pressing “Clear Shutdown”, the iControl will need to be
returned to SurgeX for analysis and repair or replacement.
* Press “Clear Shutdown” on the Setup/Outlets page to clear over-temperature and over-current
shutdown events.
User Defined Actions
User defined actions that have previously been created are displayed in a list. The name of the
action is the name that was given to the action when it was created. Pressing “Test” will activate
the action and can be used to verify that it operates the way that you intended. Pressing “Delete”
will delete the action.
New actions can be created by pressing one of the Add buttons. An action can be created from
one of five sources: Self-Test, Temperature, Voltage, Whole Unit Current, and Single Outlet
Current.
The dialog for each source is similar. You must give the new action a unique name, which
should be something that clearly says what this action will do. You then select what will trigger
this action. The only exception is for Self-Test, which is preset for when the self-test fails. The
actions themselves are as follows:
Change an Outlet
is used to turn an outlet on or off.
Run a Sequence
will run a previously defined sequence. The names of the sequences in the
drop-down box are the names they were given when they were created. A sequence must be
created before an action can use it.
