Chapter 4. Administration

Outlet Groups:

The bottom Configuration panel (refer back to page 26) lets you select the outlets that you want to put together as an outlet group. Outlet groups enable control actions to be carried out on the entire group at the same time, rather than repeatedly performing the same action on each individual outlet. You can have four outlet groups per station, and each group can be given a distinctive name. The maximum number of characters for the name is 15.

UPS:

ŠThe PN9108 provides simple signal UPS support. If you connect a UPS to the PN9108's RS-232 port, and enable the UPS function, should the main power be interrupted and the UPS kick in, the PN9108 can initiate a safe shutdown for all of the computers that have been cabled and configured for a safe shutdown.

ŠTo enable the UPS function:

ŠPut a check in the Enable UPS checkbox

ŠConfigure the pin assignments and polarities according to the documentation for your UPS.

ŠSet the power outlet configuration for each of the affected ports to one of the safe shutdown options (seeModem Ring Resume* and System after AC Back* in the table on page 27).
