3 Daisy Chaining

3.1Daisy Chaining

Up to sixteen units of the freeView Power 80 can be daisy chained to provide up to 128 managed power outlets. Each unit in the chain must be assigned a unique identification number. The default ID is 0. The following procedure explains how to daisy chain multiple units together:

1.Make sure that the Terminator is plugged into the first unit’s iLink port (Figure 6).

2.Plug in the first unit and turn it on.

3.Change the first unit’s ID number to “1” by logging into the web GUI, then going to the RPM Setting menu, then selecting “01” beside “Address Change” then click “Apply” (See section 4.2.10 for details). Each unit that is configured must have its own unique ID, (the default ID is "0"). After changing the unit’s ID number, you will see the LED beside the number 1 light up on the front panel of the first unit.
