The Pick A Plug feature lets you pick the electrical outlet with the strongest

link rate, indicated by the color displayed by the LED:

installation is complete and the adapters are communicating with each other

(indicated by the blinking Powerline LED). Pressing this button too soon can

temporarily disable Powerline communication. If this should occur, use the Factory

Reset button to return the Powerline adapter to its factory default settings.

WARNING!! To reduce the torque on the AC outlet caused by the weight of the

XAV2501, only a right-angled power cord can be plugged into the filtered AC socket

of the XAV2501 GR(German) and FR(French), and the power cord cannot be bent.
