F. Button 1: Sequences through outlets 1 through 8 (left to right)
displaying the Current for the specified outlet.
Aggregate of all outlets display when clicking past outlet 8. This button is
also used to reset individual outlets. See “How to Manually Reset Individual
Outlets from the Faceplate” on page 6.
G. Button 2: Sequences through outlets 8 through 1 (right to left)
displaying the Current for the specified outlet.
Aggregate of all outlets display when clicking past outlet 8. This button is
also used to reset individual outlets. See “How to Manually Reset Individual

H. Accessory Outlet (Unprotected): Always-on, front-facing outlet for
service use. Not IP controllable. A solid blue LED indicates the outlet has
power and is working.
How to Sequence Through Individual Outlets
- Tap B1 to sequence through outlets 1-8 (moving left to right).
- Tap B2 to sequence through outlets 8-1 (moving right to left).
As you sequence through the outlets, the corresponding outlet LED flashes to
indicate which outlet number you are on. The displays show the corresponding
Current for the outlet specified.
Note: The LED light flashes on the specified outlet for 5 minutes, during
this time the display windows show the Current for the selected outlet. Once
the 5 minutes has expired, the WattBox defaults back to displaying the
aggregate total of the entire unit, and all LEDs default back to being
illuminated.
How to Manually Reset Individual Outlets from the Faceplate
- Tap B1 or B2 to sequence through the outlets.
- With the outlet number that needs to be reset flashing, press and hold B1 or B2 for 3 seconds. The Current display shows a rotating 0 as the outlet resets.
How to Manually Reset All Outlets from the Faceplate
To reset all of the outlets, press and hold B1 and B2 at the same time for 3
seconds. The Current display shows a rotating 0 as the outlets reset.
Note: The reset follows the Power-On delay set in OvrC. Outlets designed
as Disabled in OvrC do not reset.

Troubleshooting
| Symptom | Possible Cause | Remedy |
|---|---|---|
| WattBox is not receiving power (No LEDs are illuminated). | WattBox is not | |
| turned on. | if the Watt Box power button does not show blue, press it. | |
| No power is being supplied. | Make sure the AC power plug is plugged into a |
properly grounded 220-240V (nominal) wall outlet. Some outlets are controlled
by a wall switch. Try flipping the switches in the room, especially those near
the wall outlet. Also check the location’s circuit breakers.
Too many devices are connected,
causing an overload, tripping the
WattBox’s internal circuit breaker.| Press the circuit breaker reset button.
Allow 10 minutes before attempting to reset; otherwise, the reset will fail.
if the circuit breaker continues to trip, move one or more components to
another WattBox.
A single outlet is off.| A schedule has turned the outlet off.| if the outlet
is scheduled to turn off, but should be on, delete the schedule.
The attached component is not receiving power from the WattBox.| Component is
plugged into a controlled outlet and the outlet is off.| Log in to the WattBox
interface to turn the outlet on.
---|---|---
Factory default the WattBox.
In some instances, a component plugged into a switched outlet won’t
automatically power itself up when the WattBox is turned on.| Manually turn
the component on.
Speakers emit a humming or buzzing noise.| WattBox is sharing AC power with
equipment that is not properly grounded.| Connect the WattBox to a dedicated
outlet
Unplug different components from the WattBox one at a time to see if the noise
stops.
