Installing Power Controller

The following illustration shows a Sun server configured through a serial port connection on the Digi CM 32.

Installing Power Controller

To connect the Digi RPM power controller to the Digi CM use the straight-thru cable provided with the Digi RPM unit. Plug one side into the “Console” port of the Digi RPM and the other into any port of the Digi CM. If you plan to connect multiple power controllers, set up all of them as described before proceeding. For details on how to configure the Digi RPM for cascading refer to "Cascading Multiple Digi RPM Units" on page 100.

If you are using any other manufacturer of power controllers, please refer to "About Serial Port Cabling" on page 143 for more information.

Before proceeding, plug the power controller into an appropriate power source and turn it on.

Note: The DIP switches on the Digi RPM are used for cascading. Make sure that the dip switches of the first unit are set to off. For more information about cascading refer to "Cascading Multiple Digi RPM Units" on page 100.
