PN9108U User Manual

The top Configuration panel allows you to set up a power management configuration for each port. These settings determine what takes place when you click the Power Button On or Off. The meanings of the field headings are given in the following table:

Heading

Meaning

Station Name

To make things more convenient on a multi-station

 

installation, each station can be given a distinctive

 

name. To name a station key in the name of your

 

choice - up to 15 letters and numbers.

 

 

Outlet Name

Each outlet can be given a distinctive name. The

 

maximum number of characters is 15.

 

 

Modem Ring Resume*

This is a Safe Shutdown and Reboot option (see p. 12). If

 

this option is selected, when the Outlet’s Power Button is

 

clicked OFF, the PN9108U waits for the amount time set

 

in the Power Off Delay dialog box (see below), and then

 

performs a Safe Shutdown on the computer attached to

 

its Outlet. When the Power Button is clicked ON, the

 

PN9108U waits for the amount time set in the Power On

 

Delay field (see below), and then restarts the computer.

 

The front panel LEDs flash while the action is pending.

 

Note: With this option, although the computer has been

 

turned off, it is still receiving power through the outlet.

 

Therefore, the computer can be locally (physically)

 

turned on or off - in which case the computer’s status

 

may not correspond with the Outlet Status display. The

 

gray “socket” icon flashes (instead of remains steady)

 

to remind you of this. To make sure that the computer

 

is in sync with the display, click the power On/Off/On

 

(or Off/On/Off) when making a power status change.

 

 

System after AC back*

This is a Safe Shutdown option (see p. 12). If this

 

option is selected, when the Outlet’s Power Button is

 

clicked OFF, the PN9108U waits for the amount time

 

set in the Power Off Delay dialog box (see below), and

 

then performs a Safe Shutdown on the computer

 

attached to its Outlet.

 

When the Power Button is clicked ON the PN9108U

 

waits for the amount time set in the Power On Delay

 

field (see below), and then restarts the computer.

 

Note: With this option power through the Outlet is cut

 

off. Although it was safely shutdown, the computer

 

does not receive any power through the outlet.
