is useful for re-booting a modem or other network device that is powered by
one of the PDU outputs, to help recover the network IP connection when
one of these devices has crashed. A delay time must be entered in the
Sequence/Cycle Delay
field for this function to work. Power for a cycled
channel will be held in the off state for the duration set by the
Sequence/Cycle delay time, then will be turned back on.
Watchdog Enabled
: Check this box to enable the selected Watchdog.
Primary IP Address
: Enter the remote IP address you would like the selected
Watchdog to monitor. If left blank the unit will monitor the Gateway IP
address listed in the Network Setup page.
Secondary IP Address
: Enter an optional second IP address that the unit can
monitor to verify network status. The Network Watchdog will only trigger if
both the Primary and Secondary IP addresses fail to respond.
Cycle Outputs
: This sets which output(s) to power cycle when the Network
Watchdog triggers.
Watchdog Timeout
: Enter the time (1 to 80 minutes) that the remote IP
address must stop responding to ping requests from the PDU, before the
Network Watchdog will trigger an output power cycle. Ensure this time is
greater than the normal start-up time for the network hardware to prevent
nuisance power cycle events at system start up.
Maximum Cycle Attempts:
This setting will limit the maximum number of
times the PDU can attempt to cycle power to the output(s) before giving up,
if the remote IP address continues to be unresponsive. Set Maximum Cycle
Attempts to zero for no limit.
Data Logging:
Data Logging rate:
Enable this feature to keep a running record the system
voltage, system current, channel output currents, fuse status, and alarm
inputs at a rate of up to 1 sample per minute. View this Comma Separated

button, and open in
any Spreadsheet software, such as Microsoft Excel. The log will store up to
30days of data, with the oldest entries at the top of the file, newest at the
bottom.
Log Start Date
: Shows the date/time the most recent log began.
