IntelliPlug - Automatically Control Peripherals |
|||
|
The IntelliPlug looks like a typical 3 plug adaptor but it is designed to be used
with a desktop computer. When you switch the computer ON it automatically switches on
all your peripherals (screen, printer, scanner etc) and when you switch the computer OFF it
automatically switches them off.
Computer peripherials can consume a fair amount of standby current and several peripherals consume several times that. The Intelliplug automatically takes care of standby losses. This product has proved particularly useful in the office environment where employees aren't quite so energy consious and just walk away from their desks after switching their PC's off. Simply plug the desktop computer into the IntelliPlug MASTER SOCKET and the peripherals into the other 2 sockets (you may plug in a 4 plug extension lead if more sockets are required). That's all there is too it. Some people have one master socket on the wall with everything related to their computer connected to it. This is good for energy saving but it means having clicked 'Turn-Off' on the computer screen they have to wait 30 seconds for everything to shut down before they can switch the master socket off and leave the room. With the IntelliPlug you can click 'Turn-Off' and walk away knowing that in a few seconds time everything will be automatically switched off. The IntelliPlug performs a controlled start up and shut down of the peripherals. When you start up your computer the IntelliPlug waits 5 seconds before powering up the peripherals. When you turn the computer off the IntelliPlug waits 5 seconds after the computer switches off before it cuts power to the peripherals. It does this because there are some devices that perform their own shutdown operations when they loose connection to the computer. Waiting 5 seconds allows the peripherals to shutdown properly if they need to. On top of this there is: - Surge Protection for Telephone/Modem/Broadband - Lowest standby power of 0.4 watts - Total Maximum Power 13 amps - Plug & Play - No software required A larger form of this device is available with more features and sockets. Please see the Intellipanel for more details Note: This product is not suitable for Laptops as their mains power requirement is too unpredictable.
