Rack Ear Mounting Options
The rack ears can be used to mount the power strip in several arrangements other than on the rack. You can
mount it under a counter or shelf (below left), on top of a table (below right), or against the wall (not shown).
With each of these options, you can choose to mount it flush to the surface (bottom) or displaced (top). In
addition, you can mount the unit at angled increments of 45°. See our website for examples.

Rack Mount with Clips
This can be mounted vertically on the outside of one
rail of a rack.
Using the nuts and screws provided, install the
mounting brackets (with the clips oriented as shown
at right) on the outside of one rack rail. Place the clips
76mm (3") – 102mm (4") from each end of the power
strip.
Mount the Strip
Align the power strip with the inside of one edge of
the mounting bracket. Apply pressure and rotate until
the units snaps into place.

Wall Mount with Clips
This unit can also be mounted on a wall, either vertically or horizontally.
Draw a level or plumb line. Using wall anchors or other appropriate hardware (not provided), attach the
mounting brackets (clips oriented as shown) centered on the level or plumb line, so that the clips are 76mm
(3") – 120mm (4") from each end of the power strip. For the greatest stability and safety, we recommend you
mount the brackets to studs wherever possible.
Next, insert the unit as described in Mount the Strip, on the previous page.

Troubleshooting
Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
WattBox is
not receiving
power (the
System Status
LED is not
illuminated).
WattBox is not turned on. If the WattBox power button does not show amber, 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, and 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.
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.
In some instances, a component
plugged into a switched outlet
won’t automatically power itself up
when the WattBox is turned on.
Turn the component power on.
Speakers emit
a humming or
buzzing noise.
WattBox is sharing AC power with
equipment that is not properly
grounded.
Connect WattBox to a dedicated outlet.
Unplug dierent components from WattBox one at a time to see if the
noise stops.
The speakers are sharing a filter
with noisy gear.
Move the power cords for the speakers (or the noisy components) to a
dierent outlet filter bank.
