•Grouping of receptacles — To support dual powered devices by controlling them simultaneously, two or more receptacles can be grouped together. Grouping and ungrouping can be done via the front panel, TCP ports using Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) commands, or the internal web pages.

•Detection device (alarm relay) — This relay on the rear panel can be connected to a relay-controllable siren or other detection device, and can be programmed to react at specified power level thresholds. The alarm relay can be configured for either normally open or normally closed state, which activates the attached alarm device when power drops or increases beyond a specified amount. E-mail messages can be generated based on alarm relay conditions.

•Internet communication — The PCS4 uses standard Ethernet and TCP/IP communication protocols, including ARP (Address Resolution Protocol), DHCP (dynamic host configuration protocol), TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol),

Telnet, and HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

•Embedded web page serving — The IPL T PCS4 has 900 kB of internal flash memory for storing user-customizable web pages and configuration settings. Nonproprietary programming (HTML and JavaScript™) is available, as well as other programming methods.

•Security — Built-in multilevel security provides user control over access to devices attached to the PCS4. Appropriate security is provided by password protection for

Administrator and User levels.

•Mounting — The PCS4 can be placed on a tabletop (four rubber feet are provided and can be attached). Optional hardware for mounting the unit under a desktop or podium or on a rack shelf is not included, but can be ordered separately (see “Optional Accessories” in the “Reference Material” section to order rack mounting kits).
