For an SPC to be installed to meet the requirements of the REPS program, there must be a TV plugged into the Parent Socket, and at a minimum 1 child device plugged in. A child device can be a DVD/Blu-Ray Player, Older Gaming Systems (no internal hard drives), or Sound Equipment such as surround sound or a soundbar. Your TV must use an infrared remote control and not have its own power-saving functions. For example, most newer smart televisions have these functions, or they use Bluetooth technology in the remote and are incompatible with the SPC.
