THANK YOU for purchasing the Monster Power

®

GreenPower System HTS 1900G.

This PowerCenter is designed to save energy costs by eliminating stand-by mode power

consumption. It also provides advanced power protection to keep your valuable home theater

equipment safe from dangerous power conditions, and features power filters specially tuned

for high definition AV components.

To address growing concerns about the waste and cost of stand-by or sleep mode energy use, the

1900G features Monster GreenPower

™

RF controlled outlets. These outlets automatically shut off to

eliminate the drain of "vampire" power. GreenPower outlets substantially reduce energy wasted by

HDTVs, DVD/Blu-ray

™

Disc players, subwoofers, and other components in stand-by mode.

The GreenPower outlets are controlled by the included HT 300RF wall tap. This revolutionary new

system works with the HTS 1900G to reduce energy consumption without compromising your

home theater experience. Simply plug the HT 300RF into AC wall outlet closest to your HDTV and

plug your TV into it. When you turn your HDTV off, the 300RF sends a signal to your PowerCenter

to switch off the GreenPower outlets – when you turn your HDTV back on, the PowerCenter

receives a signal to turn on the GreenPower outlets. You get all the convenience and energy

savings of GreenPower and the added benefit of being able to place your HDTV in the optimum

viewing location, instead of being limited by the length of your HDTV's power cord.

Other Monster Power breakthroughs include exclusive T2

™

automatic disconnect protection

circuitry and patented Tri-Mode

™

protection featuring an audible alarm. Tri-Mode automatically

disconnects equipment from both live power lines (line and neutral) and sounds an alarm.

A NOTE FROM THE HEAD MONSTER

2

ENGLISH

Microprocessor-controlled T2 takes protection a step further. T2 works with Tri-Mode circuitry to automatically

disconnect both the PowerCenter itself and your equipment from both live power lines (line and neutral) when

a dangerous surge or spike hits.

Patented Monster HD Clean Power

™

is specifically designed for today's high definition home theater components.

Its filters are precision-engineered to virtually stop the electromagnetic and radio frequency noise that goes right through

typical surge protectors. This advanced technology reduces stress on delicate digital circuitry, maximizing the lifespan

of connected equipment and delivering improved performance.

These days, AV components are better than ever, providing thrilling surround sound and razor sharp HD picture.

With Monster Power, you'll have peace of mind knowing your home theater investment is protected and that you're

PATENTED MONSTER CLEAN POWER

®

FILTERING

Your home’s electricity is full of noise and interference caused by all of your appliances and electronics: cell phones,

computers, even your lights, all contribute to the problem. This “dirty power” stresses the delicate digital circuitry inside

HDTVs and other home theater equipment, reducing their performance and potentially shortening their lives.

However, ordinary surge protectors can’t remove the effects of dirty power. The HTS 1900G features HD Clean Power

filtering that is precision-engineered to remove electrical noise and interference. This protects the delicate digital

circuitry inside your HDTV and other electronics from unnecessary wear. HD Clean Power maximizes your equipment’s

lifespan and ensures the best possible picture and sound performance.

PATENTED MONSTER T2

™

TECHNOLOGY

The Monster HTS 1900G features exclusive Monster T2

™

technology. T2 is an active electronic microprocessor-controlled

circuit that sits in front of the surge protection circuitry in select Monster Power products. T2 monitors the line, neutral

and ground lines and automatically disconnects the PowerCenter from the AC power line when a long duration

low-voltage sag or high-voltage swell occurs (continuous voltage below 80Vrms or above 132Vrms).

When the voltage sags or swells to these potentially damaging levels, ultra-fast T2 auto-disconnect protection circuitry

shuts down the Monster PowerCenter for 15 seconds. When the under-voltage or over-voltage condition returns to

normal, T2 reconnects the PowerCenter to the electricity and resets to full operation after 15 seconds. If the power fault

condition does not clear, the T2 comparator circuit keeps the unit shut down.

Unlike ordinary power management devices, T2 will shut down your PowerCenter before the MOVs (Metal Oxide Varistors)

and thermal fuses sense an overload condition and sacrifice themselves to protect your connected components.

This will extend the PowerCenter’s life, while providing the system protection you need.

ADVANCED TRI-MODE

®

SURGE PROTECTION

For added protection against more powerful overloads, patented Monster Tri-Mode

®

automatically disconnects your

equipment and sounds an alarm.

Tri-Mode protects against surges and spikes on all three power lines (line, neutral, and ground) for a triple layer of safety.

Only Tri-Mode offers this level of protection.

ENGLISH

FIREPROOF MOV TECHNOLOGY PROTECTS YOUR

EQUIPMENT AND YOUR HOME

Power surges can harm not only your valuable home theater equipment but can also start a fire in your home –

even if you're using a surge protector. Ordinary surge protectors use plastic-coated MOVs – metal oxide varistors –

to absorb excess voltage. But powerful surges can overheat and melt the plastic coating, potentially causing a fire.

This Monster PowerCenter features ceramic-encased MOVs for superior fire protection.The ceramic enclosure

is made of the same fireproof material used on the space shuttle to give you peace of mind that your home theater

and, more importantly, your home is safe.
