Chapter 4. Operation

„The Bottom Panel

The bottom panel allows you to control the power status of your outlet groups.

Outlets can be placed into groups so that Power On/Off actions can be carried out on the entire outlet group at the same time, rather than performing the same action on each outlet individually. Clicking the group's On or Off Power Button (the rocker switch icons) performs the power action that was set by the administrator for each of the outlets.

Note: 1. Users must have permission to operate all the ports in a group in order to use this function. If a user doesn't have permission to operate any port in the group, clicking the Power Button has no effect.

2.If some ports in a group are ON and some are OFF, and you click the OFF button, the ports that are ON turn OFF. The ports that are OFF remain OFF. Likewise, if you click the ON button, the ports that are OFF turn ON, while the ports that are ON remain ON.

Details about creating and configuring power outlet groups are described in the Configuration section of the Administration chapter (see page 38).
