Caution about sequential switching
It is recommended to thoughtful connect the device to the appropriate socket number because of
the sequential switching outputs. Sequential switching sockets, starting from number 1 through 6
(excluding devices that has power-up state set to off) is a useful feature as it helps prevent large
inrush current. However, it carries certain consequences which users need to be aware of when using
specialized equipment or watchdog IP function.
If in managed network, it is important that any device was switched on before the other, it should be
connected to the socket with a lower number than the rest of the devices.
If the IP watchdog is used, it may be important that device which connects other devices to the
network (such as a router), was turned on first. This prevents a scenario where network devices will
turn on before the router and before they are connect to the network, they will be reset by the
watchdog IP.
