Intelligent Network Controller
The Panduit Monitored Input, Monitored & Switched, Monitored per Outlet, and
Monitored & Switched per Outlet PDUs have an integral, hot swappable Intelligent
Network Controller. The Intelligent Network Controller contains the OLED interface,
control buttons, the USB, Ethernet, Serial and Sensor ports, and recessed Reset
Button.
Reset Button
Pressing the Reset Button only reboots the Intelligent Network Controller. It does not
change the Energy (kWh) value and does not affect the output voltage.
Using the Reset Button
Press and hold the Reset Button for 8 seconds to recover from an Intelligent Network
Controller communication failure.
Connecting the PDU to a LAN Ethernet Port
The PDU is defaulted to DHCP. If you are connected to an Ethernet with a DHCP
server, the PDU automatically get an IP address and display it on the LCD screen. If
there is no DHCP server, the default IP address is 192.168.0.1, but again this will be
displayed on the PDU.
Connecting the PDU to a LAN provides communication through an Internet or Intranet
connection. You can monitor the PDU from any computer connected to the same
network. The PDU is set to use DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) by default
when delivered. If IP is successfully assigned, you will see the IP address shown on
OLED display.
1. Locate the Ethernet cable
2. Connect one end of the cable to the Ethernet port on the PDU (see Figure 1).
Connect the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port on the router (or another
LAN device).
