How to Sequence Through Individual Outlets
• Tap B1 to sequence through outlets 1-8 (moving left to right).
• Tap B2 to sequence through outlets 8-1 (moving right to left).
As you sequence through the outlets, the corresponding outlet LED flashes to indicate which outlet number
you are on. The displays show the corresponding Current for the outlet specified.
Note: The LED light flashes on the specified outlet for 5 minutes, during this time the display windows
show the Current for the selected outlet. Once the 5 minutes has expired, the WattBox defaults
back to displaying the aggregate total of the entire unit, and all LEDs default back to being
illuminated.
How to Manually Reset Individual Outlets from the Faceplate
1. Tap B1 or B2 to sequence through the outlets.
2. With the outlet number that needs to be reset flashing, press and hold B1 or B2 for 3 seconds. The
Current display shows a rotating 0as the outlet resets.

7
How to Manually Reset All Outlets from the Faceplate
To reset all of the outlets, press and hold B1 and B2 at the same time for 3 seconds. The Current display shows
a rotating 0 as the outlets reset.
Note: The reset follows the Power-On delay set in OvrC. Outlets designed as Disabled in OvrC do not
reset.

Troubleshooting
Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
WattBox is not
receiving power
(No LEDs are
illuminated).
WattBox is not turned on. If the WattBox power button does not show blue,
press it.
No power is being supplied.
Make sure the AC power plug is plugged into a
properly grounded 220-240V (nominal) wall outlet.
Some outlets are controlled by a wall switch. Try
flipping the switches in the room, especially those
near the wall outlet. Also check the location’s circuit
breakers.
Too many devices are connected,
causing an overload, tripping the
WattBox’s internal circuit breaker.
Press the circuit breaker reset button. Allow 10
minutes before attempting to reset; otherwise, the
reset will fail.
If the circuit breaker continues to trip, move one or
more components to another WattBox.
A single outlet
is o.
A schedule has turned the outlet
o.
If the outlet is scheduled to turn o, but should be
on, delete the schedule.

14
Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
The attached
component is
not receiving
power from the
WattBox.
Component is plugged into a
controlled outlet and the outlet is
o.
Log in to the WattBox interface to turn the outlet on.
Factory default the WattBox.
In some instances, a component
plugged into a switched outlet
won’t automatically power itself
up when the WattBox is turned on.
Manually turn the component on.
Speakers emit
a humming or
buzzing noise.
WattBox is sharing AC power with
equipment that is not properly
grounded.
Connect the WattBox to a dedicated outlet.
Unplug dierent components from the WattBox one
at a time to see if the noise stops.
