caused the shut down goes away. The restore functions cannot be used in conjunction with
applied voltage or latching type remote control inputs.

15 Applications
The XR315 can be used in four types of configuration: a single unit providing eight outlets; an
expanded system where the XR315 controls remote turn-on SurgeX products; a ganged system
where two or more XR315s are connected together such that they all turn on and off at the same
time; a cascaded system where two or more XR315s are connected together such that the units
turn on sequentially from one XR315 to the next XR315. Each configuration is covered separately
in its own section, but first there are some general points which apply to all types of installation.
15.1 General Points
Section 3.2 provides detailed information about the remote control connections. If you have not
already done so, please read section 3.2 before continuing. The information in section 6.1 applies
to all types of installations and you should also read this section before continuing further.
15.1.1 Controlling the XR315
The XR315 is primarily designed to be used with momentary action switches. A momentary
switch is a switch where the contacts are closed only while the switch is actually pressed, such as
a push switch. Using momentary switches allows several switches to be connected in parallel so
that the XR315 can be controlled from multiple locations. A single push switch would cause the
unit to power-up on the first press and then power down on the second press. A dual momentary
switch, such as a center-biased rocker, or two separate push switches (one for UP and the other
for DOWN), can also be used with equal versatility. It is up to the installer to choose the
configuration. Whatever type of switch is used, switches with gold contacts are recommended for
the best long-term reliability.
Where there are multiple control locations it is advantageous to use the 12V dc output to drive
LEDs so that there is an LED at each control location. Up to four LEDs running at 10mA each
can be powered from the 12V dc output. Each control location then has an indication of the
operational status of the XR315 regardless of which location last initiated power-up or power-
down.

XR315
Select "Enable" if you want the XR315 to power up after a power
failure or out-of-range AC condition and the XR315 was powered up
when this condition occurred. Select "Disable" if you don't want this
function. Factory Defaults: v1.0: Disabled, v1.1: Enabled.
Select "Enable" if you want the XR315 to power up again after being
