Introduction
Belkin Power Console
Thank you for purchasing the Belkin Power Console PF60. The Power
Console is designed to clean, protect, and efficiently distribute power to your
valuable home theater system. Belkin ensures that every movie you watch
and every album you hear is as clean and clear as possible.
The Power Console is packed with innovative features to provide you with
the best home theater experience. Ordinary household AC power that is
delivered to your home is polluted with “noise” from many sources within
your home, including digital components and household appliances. The
Power Console’s advanced Phase 5 PureFilter Circuitry is optimized to
remove electrical noise and provide clean and clear power to all of your
valuable digital audio and video equipment. The multiphase PureFilter
Circuitry also provides true isolation between audio, video, and digital
components. This isolation prevents noise created by components that
are already connected to the Power Console from contaminating other
connected equipment. In addition, the Power Console contains Advanced
Overvoltage Protection, which automatically disconnects power from your
equipment when the input voltage reaches a dangerous level, and restores
power automatically when the voltage returns to a safe level.
We also realize that the aesthetics of your system are very important. For
this reason, we enlisted some of the top industrial designers in the country
to design the housing for the Belkin Power Console. The minimalist
styling of the Power Console combines function with a simplistic yet
elegant design and is a great complement to any system. The integrated
multifunction LCD combines all essential controls with a versatile voltage
and current monitor.
As you may know, your AC power source is not the only threat to the
safety of your equipment. This is why the Belkin Power Console has three
sets of coaxial connections to protect your coaxial-cable lines.
Providing the ultimate home theater experience is the driving force behind
the Belkin design, providing the clearest picture and cleanest sound from
your components to you. Thank you again for purchasing the Belkin Power
Console PF60.
Clear Picture – Clean Sound. Belkin.

Step 2
Program the Outlet Banks
Each outlet bank on the rear panel of the Power Console is programmable.
Using the slide switches on the rear panel, you can program the outlets for
switched or unswitched, and for delay or always-on (no delay) (Fig. 2). You
can also determine the length of the delay (5, 10, or 15 seconds).
A. Outlet Banks Always-On (unswitched): For components that need to
retain memory or other settings (DVRs, satellite receivers, VCRs), set
the top slide switch to “Always ON” (Fig. 2a). These outlet banks will
always supply power when the Power Console is plugged into the wall.
B. Outlet Banks Switched On (no delay): Set the top slide switch to
“Switched”. Make sure that the lower slide switch is set to “No Delay”
(Fig. 2b). The outlet banks will be immediately powered-on when the
Power Console is switched-on by pressing the “Switched” button on the
front of the unit. Switched outlets can also be switched-on by external
remote signal (see page 15). These outlets will remain powered-on for a
short period of time after switching them off depending on the “Delay
Timesetting (see “Delay Time Switch” below).
C. Outlet Banks Switched On After Delay: You may find it necessary to
program your outlets to switch on after a delay. Once the delay is set,
the outlets will be powered-on after the outlets that are set for “no
delay” have powered-on. They will then power-off in reverse sequence:
“delay” outlets will power-off first and “no delay” outlets will power-off
last. This is useful to avoid the loud and occasionally damaging “thump”
created when the amplifier voltage is stabilizing.
a. Set the top slide switch to “Switched” and the bottom slide switch to
“Delay” (Fig. 2c).
b. Repeat this for each bank that you want to be switched on after a
delay.
c. Press the “Switched” button on the front of the Power Console to
activate all of the switched outlets
Note: The delay can only be set on “Switched” outlets.
D. Delay Time Switch: This switch sets the length of delay for all outlet
banks that are programmed as “Switched” and “Delay”. Set the delay
time by selecting 5, 10, or 15 seconds (Fig. 2d). 15 seconds is the
recommended delay time for tube amplifiers.

Hookup and Installation
E. Trigger Out: The trigger out function gives you the ability to control an
external device equipped with a remote trigger such as a retractable
movie screen when the Power Console is switched on. The 12-volt DC
OUT port accepts a 1/8” mini plug cable. Set the “Trigger Out” switch
to “Delayed” and the Trigger Out will power an external device after a
delay set by the Delay Time Switch. If you do not want a delay then set
the “Trigger Out” switch to “Switched” (Fig. 2e).

Troubleshooting
Power Console is not providing power
Check to ensure that the Power Console is plugged into a properly
grounded AC wall outlet. Some outlets require a wall switch to be turned
on in order to deliver power to the outlet.
Too many devices may be plugged into the Power Console, which are
overloading the unit and tripping the overload circuit breaker. The Power
Console is not designed to handle current loads larger than 15 Amps
or 1800 watts. Try unplugging some devices and resetting the circuit
breaker located on the end of the Power Console.
To reset the circuit breaker: Wait at least 10 minutes after
the circuit breaker was tripped before attempting to reset the
breaker. Press in the button located next to the power cord on the
end of the unit to reset. Power should be restored to the outlets
on the Power Console.
Your components may be plugged into a “Switched” outlet and the outlet
is not switched on. Check to ensure that the “Switched ON” indicator
on the Control Panel is illuminated. If the light is not illuminated, press
the “Switched” button on the front of the Power Console unit until the
“Switched ON” indicator is illuminated. You should now have power to all
of the switched outlets.
Your components may not be turned on. Power may be flowing from the
Power Console, but if the power switch on your component is not turned
on then your component cannot receive power. Turn on the power switch
on your component.
The Power Console is designed to stop delivering power to all outlets
when the surge-protection circuitry is not functioning properly or is
expired. Call Belkin Customer Service for assistance.
