  • Patent number: 5615107
    Abstract: The power control system includes a time controlled bi-stable device for causing at least one slave outlet to be controlled in response to a master unit being energized and/or de-energized. The system thus enables the slave outlet only to be energized, and not the master unit, if the master unit is energized, and then de-energized within a short predetermined time interval. Advantageously, the system of the present invention can be controlled remotely by using a conventional remote control device for a television receiver, and the audio from the television receiver is transmitted through the audio receiver. Thus, by using only the remote control device, either the television receiver can be used with the audio receiver, or the audio receiver can be used independently under the control of the television remote control device.
