                        Overview  3 Overview  The PL-50 Power Controller Monitor can control up to five power channels at  a total load of 10A. The PL-50, by measuring and then monitoring the  standby and active modes of the connected units, can detect whether a unit is  in the standby mode, the active mode or is disconnected.   Two versions of the PL-50 are available, a European version and a version for  the USA.  The PL-50 features include:  • PRESET LEVEL buttons, for measuring the STANDBY mode and the  ACTIVE mode
