ment of all equipment plugged into the P-1400 AR E, not to each individual item.
Extreme Voltage Shutdown Indicator:
The Extreme Voltage LED indicator is normally off. It is located within the meter lens assembly directly above the blue voltage me-
ters LED's, though during normal use it will NOT be visible.
The Extreme Voltage indicator monitors a hazard common in the entertainment industry, as well as remote broadcast: wiring faults,
such as accidental connection to 300+ VAC where 230VAC is expected, or an open series neutral from a multi-phase electrical ser-
vice. The Furman EVS circuit senses voltages that are so high that operation would be impossible and shuts the power down before
damage can occur.
Upon initially applying power to the P-1400 AR E, the Extreme Voltage indicator will illuminate to a bright red if the input voltage
is above the extreme voltage cutoff. When this occurs, power will not be applied to the P-1400 AR E's outlets. If the unit has been
operating with an acceptable input voltage and subsequently that voltage exceeds 275V, it will shut off power to the outlets and the
Extreme Voltage LED will light.
Note: If the mains power is above the high cutoff voltage and has caused the EVS circuit to remove power from the Furman's outlets,
it cannot restore power without the operator manually turning the unit off, then on again. Avoid turning the unit back on without
first checking the source of the problem and perhaps changing the AC source.
Protection OK Indicator:
Although the Furman SMP circuit assures virtually maintenance free protection from transient voltage spikes and surges, nature has
a way of occasionally creating electrical forces that are beyond the capabilities of ANY TVSS device to absorb without some degree
of damage (such as a direct lightning hit in an outdoor application). In the rare instance that this occurs, the green "Protection OK"
LED indicator (located to the lower right of the voltage meter) will not illuminate. If this happens, some level of protection from
voltage surges will remain, but the Furman's clamping voltage rating will be compromised. The unit must be returned to Furman.
USB Charger:
The Furman P-1400 AR E's USB charger provides an easy way to recharge many popular electronic accessories as well as cellular
communication devices by simply plugging the re-charge cord into the front panel socket.
Note: As there are currently many standards for USB, some devices may not be compatible with our charger.
Rear BNC Connector:
The Furman P-1400 AR E features a rear rack BNC socket which will accept any 12 VAC (0.5A) gooseneck lamp assembly, (such as the
Furman GN-LED or GN-I). Simply slide the BNC plug over the socket and rotate clockwise until the connector snaps into the locked
position. The rear rack lamp can be powered on or off with the rear light switch which is adjacent to the BNC connector.
Isolated Outlet Banks:
The Furman P-1400 AR E features ten rear-panel outlets in 2 isolated banks. If you are connecting digital and analog equipment to
the P-1400 AR E, it is recommended to connect the analog equipment to "Bank A" and digital equipment to "Bank B" (or vice-versa)
to minimize electrical crosstalk.
TROUBLESHOOTING
1.) Symptom: No power to the AC outlets; "Protection OK" indicator is not lit.
Possible Cause: Either the AC outlet to which your P-1400 AR E is connected has no AC voltage present, or there has been damage
to the unit's circuitry.
Action Needed: Plug the P-1400 AR E into an AC receptacle where a nominal 230 VAC is present. If the problem persists, the inter-
nal circuitry may be damaged and the unit will require factory service (see "Service" section below).
2.) Symptom: Extreme Voltage indicator lit.
Possible Cause: Input voltage is above 275 volts causing power to the unit's outlets to be shut down.
SERVICE
Questions or issues with your Furman unit should be directed to the Furman Customer Service Department, available 8AM-4PM
Pacific Time at (707) 763-1010 or via email at techsupport@furmansound.com. If a unit requires service, it must have an RA number
