Low Power Mode
Your PLA-407 is a certified green product. It goes into Low Power mode when
there is no Ethernet connection.
When you plug the PLA-407 into an electric socket, it waits for an Ethernet
connection. When no connection is detected after sixty (60) seconds, the
Power
LED (
) blinks indicating that it is going into Low Power mode.
The same process occurs when you disconnect the PLA-407 from a previously
working Ethernet connection. Sixty (60) seconds after disconnecting the Ethernet
cable, the PLA-407’s
Power
LED blinks signalling that it is going into Low Power
mode.
The

While in Low Power mode, you cannot use the
ENCRYPT

computer/notebook or modem/router first. The PLA-407 wakes up from Low
Power mode and you can start using the
ENCRYPT
