Introduction 3
Description
Creation of User Accounts
The AlterPath PM allows one administrator and up to eight users (not
simultaneously) to connect to it through its RS-232 serial port. After a
successful authentication, it performs the following functions:
• Reads and displays the total current being used by the entire AlterPath PM.
• Manages power outlets (by powering them on and off, locking and
unlocking them, and/or power cycling them).
• Manages users.
• Monitors power variables.
• Can be used as a stand-alone IPDU (independent of any other hardware)
and controlled by any simple terminal access program like Minicom on
Linux or HyperTerminal on Microsoft operating systems.
Integration with Cyclades Management Products
When used with the ACS/TS family, the OnSite, or the KVM family, the
AlterPath PM offers a superior feature set that is not fully covered in this
manual. Please refer to the appropriate Cyclades documentation for more
information on how to use the AlterPath PM with your specific
implementation.
