Power-up and Default Cycle
When you first plug the Powercage 401 into a power source, the LCD screen displays
an initial screen, which contains the product name, model, and firmware version. This is
followed by the default cycle of screens showing the current configuration of the four slots.
These messages continue to cycle on the LCD screen when the menu system is not in use.
