Setup

Setting up your PG-P Power Conditioner is straightforward. Follow these steps to ensure proper operation and protection for your equipment.

1. Placement: Position the PG-P on a stable, flat surface, away from excessive heat or moisture. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.
2. Power Connection: Plug the PG-P's integrated power cord into a standard, grounded AC wall outlet.
3. Check Indicators:
   • The "Ground OK" LED (green) should illuminate, indicating a proper ground connection.
   • The "Protection On" LED (green) should illuminate, confirming surge protection is active.
   • The "Clean Power" LED (blue) should illuminate, indicating that the power conditioning is active.

   If any of these LEDs do not light up, refer to the Troubleshooting section.

4. Connect Equipment: Plug your audio equipment, instruments, or other sensitive electronics into the six AC outlets on the PG-P. The wall-wart spaced outlets are designed to accommodate larger power adapters.

Operation

Once connected, the PG-P operates automatically to provide conditioned and protected power. The front panel features a main power switch and three indicator LEDs:

• Power Switch: A red rocker switch to turn the unit on or off. When on, the switch will be illuminated.
• Ground OK (Green LED): Indicates that the wall outlet is properly grounded. If this light is off, there is a grounding issue with your electrical outlet, and the unit may not provide full protection.
• Protection On (Green LED): Confirms that the surge protection circuitry is active and functioning. If this light is off, the surge protection has been compromised (e.g., by a severe power surge) and the unit should be replaced.
• Clean Power (Blue LED): Signifies that the power conditioning and noise filtration are actively working to provide clean power to your connected devices.

Maintenance

The Black Lion Audio PG-P is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure its longevity:

• Cleaning: Disconnect the unit from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the power cord and the unit for any signs of damage. If the "Protection On" LED is off, the surge protection has been expended, and the unit should be replaced to ensure continued protection.
• Environment: Avoid exposing the unit to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight.
