Note:
•
The next time the PDU power cycles, it will turn on all outlets based on the new outlet order.
•
The new order also applies when performing the power-on or power-cycling operation on partial outlets.
•
As indicated by the on-screen note, the order applies to “up” or power-on sequences and is mirrored (along with any
set delays) for “down” or power-off sequences.
Setting Power-On Delays
To set power-on delays for outlets:
1.
Click the ellipsis
and select Sequence Setup.
2.
Click the 'Delay' column of the outlet that requires a wait after it is turned on.
3.
Type a new value in seconds.
4.
Click Save.
The PDU inserts a power-on delay between the configured outlet and the one following it during the power-on process.
Load Shedding Mode
When a UPS supplying power to the PDU switches into battery backup operation, it may be desirable to switch off
non-critical outlets to conserve UPS battery life. This feature is known as load shedding.
Outlets that are turned off when load shedding is activated are called non-critical. Outlets that are not affected by load
shedding are called critical outlets. By default, all outlets are critical. To set non-critical ones, see
(on
page 37).
