T To Daisy Chain a PM
This procedure assumes that a master PM is already connected to a work
station or to a Cyclades console or KVM device.
1. Connect one end of an RJ-45 cable to the OUT port of the main AlterPath
PM, which is connected to a work station or to a Cyclades console or
KVM device (master).
2. Connect the other end of the RJ-45 cable to the IN port of the secondary
AlterPath PM (slave).
3. To connect another PM to the slave, connect one end of an RJ-45 cable to
the OUT port of the last PM in the chain.
4. Repeat Step 3 until you have connected the desired number of PMs.
You can control up to 128 power outlets in any combination of PM
models.
