Monster Power HTS5000 - Manual (Page 16)

STEP 4 Remote DC Control Hookups
NOTE:
This feature allows you to turn on/off your PowerCenter via your Home Automated Control System.
A component you don’t want powered constantly (such as your projector or surround amplifier) can be plugged into
one of the PowerCenter’s outlets programmed as “switched on” or “switched on after delay” and be remotely
activated when needed. This feature also allows you to use a low voltage cable (not supplied) to remotely control
multiple PowerCenters.
You can’t turn off the PowerCenter using the front panel OFF button when the unit is operating in the REMOTE mode.
A) Plug a 1/8" mini-plug cable (not supplied) into the corresponding outlet on the PowerCenter
(see diagram below).
B) Switch the NORMAL/REMOTE switch (located on the back of the PowerCenter) to REMOTE.
C) Plug the other end of the cable into the corresponding outlet on your component that has a 12 volt
output. When you turn on the component that has a 12 volt output, the PowerCenter’s outlets programmed
as ”switched on” will be turned on immediately. However, the PowerCenter’s outlets programmed as
”switched on after delay” will be turned on after a delay set by the DELAY TIME switch.
