Operation
The maximum continuous total load connected to the unit must not exceed 16A.
Once all connections are made and checked the circuit breaker may be switched
on. Press the green button firmly in. To switch off press the red button.
The“feel”of the red and green buttons are different; this is normal.
During normal operation the front blue indicator will light on the front panel
indicating power is present on both high power and low/medium power sections.
The SubStation³ can be left powered on a day-to-day basis, but should be
switched off if the system is not being used for a significant period of time.
Fault Finding
Front panel indicator not lit and all outputs do not work;
Check that the circuit breaker is in the on position (green button in).
Check that the mains inlet cable is plugged into a wall socket and that
the socket's switch is on.
Check that the fuses in the mains lead (if applicable) and consumer unit
are intact.
If the SubStation³'s circuit breaker has tripped, the green button will have popped
out. This is the same state as when switched off. To reset push the green button in.
If the circuit breaker repeatedly trips, there are two possible causes:
1. The connected equipment has a fault: In turn, unplug each product and
turn on the circuit breaker. When the circuit breaker turns on without
tripping, then the product just unplugged is either faulty or is simply
drawing too much current.
2. The unit contains devices that protect against mains power surges and
high voltage spikes. In very rare cases an unusually severe event, such as a
lightning strike, can cause the unit to repeatedly trip. If the breaker
repeatedly trips once the connected equipment has been eliminated as a
cause; do not use the unit and contact your ISOL-8 dealer for service.
Your SubStation³ should not need servicing during normal operation. There are no
user serviceable parts inside. Do not open or attempt to repair the unit.
