Retractable Rack Lights and Dimmer Control: The PL-PLUSD and PL-PLUSDM utilize a dimmer control for the two retractable front panel light tubes. The dimmer knob controls the brightness of both light fixtures. Turn it clockwise to increase brightness; turn it counterclockwise to decrease brightness. Light Tubes and Bulb Replacement: The PL-PLUSD and PL-PLUSDM feature the familiar slide-out rack lights pioneered by Furman. These units� lamps come supplied with five-watt night light bulbs. Replacements are available at most hardware stores, and may be purchased from Furman Sound service as well.

The PL-PLUSD features an advanced digital voltage meter, while the PL-PLUSDM and PM-8DM provide a laboratory grade True RMS digital voltage and current meter. Both meters are located at the center-front panel of their respective units. A 15 amp circuit breaker is mounted on the front panel, allowing quick, convenient power restoration. Simply pushing the square center tab into the front bezel will re-activate the breaker after an excessive current load has tripped it. The rear panel contains eight switched AC outlets to power your equipment, (4 for analog equipment and 4 with additional filtering for digital � computer components, see below). These AC outlets are spaced to accommodate up to four plug-mounted power supplies (�wall warts�). Power is delivered to the unit by a heavy duty 14 AWG AC cord, 10 feet (2.4 m) in length for extra reach and durability on stages and other high-traffic areas.

BULB

REPLACEMENT

Bulbs are easily replaced without removing the unit from the rack. Here�s How: First, pull the light tube(s) all the way out. Unscrew the cap on the end of each tube to get access to the bulb. (Be careful not to push the tubes in after you have removed the caps.) To unscrew the bulb, place your index finger across the hole on the underside of the tube and in contact with the bulb. Use the ball of your finger to rotate the bulb out of its socket. Then remove the bulb from the front of the light tube. Put a new bulb in the tube, rotate it with your finger from the hole in the bottom of the tube and replace the light tube cap(s). NOTE: The caps and light tubes become quite warm to the touch in normal operation. To avoid burning your fingers, allow the cap to cool completely before unscrewing it. If you find that the heat from the tubes is excessive, try reducing the dimmer knob setting. As an alternative, you may substitute four-watt bulbs or even colored Christmas tree bulbs. The Tape Trick: In cases where the bulb is still warm, or too tight to unfasten with your fingers, a piece of duct or gaffers tape about 2 inches square can aid in the bulb removal. Simply pinch about a quarter inch of the center portion of tape together, and place the remaining portion of the adhesive backing on the exposed portion
