Connecting Devices

To avoid the possibility of noise due to arcing:

1.Keep the device’s on/off switch in the off position until after it is plugged into the outlet, or

log into the user interface and turn the outlets off before connecting the devices to the unit(s). After connecting the devices, turn them on from the user interface.

2.Connect devices to the outlets.

On 230V units, install a retention clip for each outlet; Pull the prongs out slightly and insert them into holes on the sides, then insert the device’s power cord and snap the clip over the cord.

NOTE:

1.MGE UPS SYSTEMS recommends even distribution of attached devices across the all available outlets to avoid exceeding the outlet, quad or octet ratings limitations. See Power Ratings Technical Specifications more information.

2.The outlet retention clips provided with 230V units are designed for use with MGE UPS SYSTEMS’s IEC 60320/C13 to IEC 60320/C14 cable and may not properly fit 3rd party cables.

Always disconnect the power supply cord before opening to avoid electrical shock. Afin d’éviter les chocs électriques, débranchez le cable électrique avant d’ouvrir.

Immer Netzleitung auskuppeln vor den Aufmachen um elektrischen Schlag zu vermeiden.

Connecting the Sensors

The Switched PDU is equipped with two mini RJ11 T/H ports for attachment of the included Temperature/Humidity sensor. Attach the mini RJ11 plug of the sensor(s) to the appropriate T/H port.

Connecting to the Unit

Serial (RS232) port

Switched PDU models are equipped with an RJ45 Serial RS-232 port for attachment to a PC or networked terminal server using the supplied RJ45 to RJ45 crossover cable and RJ45 to DB9F serial port adapter as required. See Data Connections in Technical Specifications for more information on the Serial RS-232 port.

Ethernet port

Switched PDU models are equipped with an RJ45 10/100Base-T Ethernet port for attachment to an existing network. This connection allows access via Telnet, Secure Shell (SSH) or a common web browser.

The unit configured with the following network defaults to allow unit configuration out-of-the-box through either Telnet/SSH or via a web browser:

•	IP address:	192.168.1.254
•	Subnet Mask:	255.255.255.0
•	Gateway:	192.168.1.1

The local PC network connection must be configured as noted below:

NOTE: Contact your system administrator for instructions in reconfiguring the network connection. Reconfiguration of your network connection may require a restart to take effect.

•	IP address:	192.168.1.x (where x is 2-253)
•	Subnet Mask:	255.255.255.0
