Quick Start Guide &
Instruction Manual

www.tricklestar.com BLUETOOTH® AV ADVANCED POWERSTRIP+
Power connection – The Advanced PowerStrip+ (APS+) must be plugged
into a grounded outlet to be properly surge protected. Use of an extension
cord, adaptor, or other power strip/surge protector in conjunction with the
APS+ will void all warranties.
Resettable circuit breaker – If the surge, ground, and switched LEDs are
not lit and/or connected devices are not receiving power, press the circuit
breaker to activate power.
Operation button – Push the button to enter Bluetooth pairing mode, and
reset product to its factory default.
Bluetooth LED indicator – This LED indicates connection status and pairing
mode.
RJ11 port – Plug the multi-sensor into this port. There will be a soft, audible
“click” when the connector is inserted correctly.
Surge LED – All outlets on the APS+ are surge protected. When lit green,
this LED indicates that the surge protection is functioning. If not lit or goes out
at any time, the APS+ sacrificed itself to protect your electronics and must be
replaced.
Ground LED – When lit green, this LED indicates that the APS+ is correctly
grounded. If not lit, there is a grounding problem, and you must contact an
electrician to properly ground the outlet. Surge protection will not work with an
improperly-grounded outlet.
Switched LED – When lit, it indicates that the switched outlets are receiving
power.
Multi-sensor – The multi-sensor is connected to the powerstrip via the RJ11
port marked “sensor.”
Always-on outlets – Electronics that require continuous power should be
plugged into the always-on outlets. These typically include cable or set-top
boxes, DVRs and gaming consoles with HDDs.
< tv > outlet – The outlet marked < tv > is the control outlet. IMPORTANT:
The TV must be plugged into this outlet.
Switched outlets – If the TV is turned off, or if there is no IR remote activity
or motion detected, these outlets will switch off.
TAV-Link™ cable (optional, not supplied) – TAV-Link will send high-level
CEC commands to HDMI-connected devices, allowing them to safely store
their data and settings prior to powering down.

Product Overview

TrickleStar TAV-Link functionality will softly switch off (place into an energy-saving mode)
HDMI-connected peripherals capable of receiving Consumer Electronic Control (CEC)
commands if no IR remote control activity or motion is detected.

Game consoles without hard disk drives (HDDs) should be plugged into a switched outlet.
Those with HDDs can be plugged into an always-on outlet and controlled via TAV-Link.

Set Up Instructions

www.tricklestar.com BLUETOOTH® AV ADVANCED POWERSTRIP+
< tv >
Press any button but the power button
on an Infrared (IR) remote. The
multi-sensor should blink red once and
then the switched outlets should have
power.
You'll know the switched outlets have
power when the switched LED at the
top of the APS+ is lit.
Note: Not all remotes are IR. You'll
know your TV remote is an IR remote if
the multi-sensor blinks red when you
press any button on it.
The APS+ features auto-threshold sensing technology. This learns the normal
power draw of your TV, known as a power profile. After set up, you need to
"teach" the APS+ the power profile of your TV.
Turn on your TV. Let it come to full
brightness. Use the IR remote to change
channels and inputs. The sensor should
blink red each time you press your
remote.
Step 1
Turn the TV off. Wait for the switched
outlets to turn off, which should take
about a minute. You'll know they are off
when the green switched LED indicator
at the top of the strip is no longer lit.
While the TV is turning off, the sensor
should blink red and blue.
Now the APS+ has learned the power
profile of your TV and you can use it.

Problem Solution
What can I plug into the APS+?
The APS+ is intended to be used with a television and related
electronics.
• Never insert any object other than a plug into the APS+ outlets.
• The APS+ is designed for indoor use only. Do not use it outside.
• Never use the APS+ with appliances, such as refrigerators, electric
kettles, ovens, microwaves, or similar.
• Never use the APS+ with power tools such as power drills, bench saws
or similar.
What TV-related electronics should I plug into the grey always-on
outlets?
Plug in devices that need constant power for recording features, timers
and program guides, such as:
• Set-top boxes
• DVRs
• AV receivers
• Game consoles with HDDs
What TV-related electronics should I plug into the switched outlets?
The TV must be plugged into the green outlet labeled < tv >. Plug in
devices such as the following in to the remaining switched outlets:
• Blu-ray player
• DVD player
• CD player
• Sound bar
• Speakers
• Amplifier
• Game consoles without HDDs
How does the APS+ save energy?
The APS+ saves energy two ways:
1) Eliminates standby power
• After the TV is turned off, the switched outlets and the times
plugged into them turn off within one minute and no longer draw
any power.
2) Monitors activity and powers down unused AV electronics
• In TV Mode, the switched outlets and the items plugged into them
turn off if no IR remote control signal or motion is detected
during the countdown period.
• In Music Mode, switched outlets and the items plugged into them
turn off after eight hours.
• With the optional TAV-Link cable, HDMI-connected peripherals
capable of receiving CEC commands automatically soft-switch off
(or enter a power saving mode) if the TV is turned off, or if there is
no IR remote activity or motion detected during the countdown
period.
