Juice Goose CQ1520 3 Sequence 20 Amps Audio Power Distribution System 7 Outlets
Three Sequence 20 AMP Power Distribution System with Remote Control Capability
This is a great product for "front of house" applications or anywhere AC power protection is needed for several pieces of low current equipment that need to be controlled and sequenced.
The CQ-1520 is a single space rack mount device featuring 7 AC power outputs on the rear of the chassis with a combined rating of 20 amps . One output is unswitched. The remaining 6 outputs are grouped into 3 Power Pods of two outputs each. Each Power Pod is an individual sequence event. All outputs have surge and spike protection.
Because the CQ-1520 has a self contained sequencing circuit, it can be the master or slave in a power sequencing system. Either eight wire RJ-45 or six wire RJ-12 cable can be connected to this unit's Signal Input and/or Signal Output connectors to link it's operations with other CQ or control devices.
The 20 amp capacity of this unit requires it to be assembled with a 12 gauge power cable and a NEMA 5/20P plug at the end of the power cord. This cable can only be inserted into a 20 amp rated AC receptacle.
Surge Protection and LED Function
The CQ-1520 features replaceable, fast acting, triple stage AC surge protection across line and neutral without ground line contamination. This protection is designed to be durable and is expected to last for many years in a normally occurring power line environment.
A blue/red flashing Processor LED indicates the continuing operation of the circuit and logic that controls and drives the sequencer while protected from power line surges between line and neutral. Should the surge protection fail due to excessive surge exposure or an extreme power line event the Processor LED on the front of the CQ will blink red. To replace the surge protection contact Juice Goose for instructions and materials: 713-772-1404, info@juicegoose.com. Individual blue "Pod" LEDs are tied to the output of each of the sequencer relays. Each LED lights when its relay latches.
Processor LED Function: Blue/Red Flashing = Sequencer and Surge Protection OK. Blinking Red = Sequencer OK, Surge Protection Failure. Solid Blue or Off = Sequencer Failure
Sequence Timing Adjustment
For CQ Series products, standard delay time between sequence up and sequence down events is 2 seconds. That can be adjusted in the CQ 1520 by changing position of two DIP switches located on the main control circuit board. Timing options are 2 seconds (standard), 10 seconds, 20 seconds and 30 seconds. Detailed instructions about making those changes are included in the CQ Series Manual.
Juice Goose SQ 1500 Sequenced Power Control System
The SQ-1500 is an economical power sequencer for single rack applications when local or remote control is required. Remote activation with a latching contact closure makes installation and operation simple and efficient.
This item has a fifteen amp capacity with seven AC power outputs on the rear of the chassis. One output is unswitched. The remaining six outputs are grouped into three Power Pods of two outputs each. Each Power Pod is an individual sequence event. All outputs have Juice Goose quality surge and spike protection as well as line noise filtration.
This product features LEDs on the front of the chassis for real time monitoring of the processor and sequencing functions. A green flashing LED indicates the continuing operation of the processor that controls and drives the sequencer. Individual red LEDs are tied to the output of each of the relays. Each LED lights when its relay latches. The LED can only be on when the relay is latched.

Juice Goose RC5WM-RS Wall Panel Mount Remote Control Monitor for CQ Series
The RC 5WM-RS provides a wall mount trigger for CQ Series power sequencers. When connected to the Input control port on a CQ Series model using RJ-45 cable, the RC 5 acts as a trigger to sequence up or down any number of power sequencers connected in line "down stream" from the RC 5. Installation is simple and requires no external power supply.
Wall mounted installations requiring more security can use the RC 5WM-RS which provides sequence functions and monitoring with a key rather than a rotary switch. Rack mounted triggers include the RC 5RM and RC 5RM-RS.
Features:
Security Control
Sequence Up, Sequence Down and Pause Capability
Indicator Lights for Sequence Operation, Sequence Completion and System Status
