4.2. Navigating through the Console Menu
Follow these steps to navigate through the console menu to modify settings:
• To select a submenu type the number corresponding to the
submenu and press Enter. For example, to select the iPDU
Configuration menu, type 1 and press Enter. Submenus may
have further nested menus which can also be accessed by
typing the appropriate number.
• To modify a menu option, select the option with its correspond-
ing number and then type the new values for the option. For
instance, to change the system date, first select the System
Date option by typing 4 from the System Group and press
Enter. Then type the date in the specified format (dd/mm/yyyy)
and press Enter to save the changes.
• Type 0 (zero) to return to a previous or higher-level menu.
The console menu consists of the following submenus:
• iPDU Configuration: This is the primary menu consisting of various submenus such as the system submenu to sett the IP
address, date, and time, the control submenu to set the administrator user name, password, and access protocols, the parameter
submenu to set identification information, and the e-mail submenu to configure the e-mail settings. This menu also provides the
option under the control group submenu to enable input phase detection which allows the iPDU to turn off outlet power if there is
a phase mismatch.
• Outlet Control: Enables users to control all power outlets and configure each outlet’s name, location, and other parameters.
• Digital Outlet Control: Displays digital output status and enables users to control all digital outputs.
• EMD Control: Displays EMD temperature and humidity and enables users to configure other parameters.
• Access Control Table: Enables users to set up a list of users who can access and control the power outlets.
• Trap Receiver Table: Enables users to set up a list of users who will be alerted with a trap message if an unusual event is triggered
on the iPDU system.
• Reset Configuration to Default: This option sets all system settings to their factory default values.
• Restart iPDU: Enables users to restart the iPDU.
4.3. Setting the IP Address
1. Use the steps described under Navigating through the
Console Menu to navigate the System Group under the
iPDU Configuration menu.
2. Select the IP Address item and set the IP address. This
address lets users access the iPDU in a TCP/IP network (LAN/
WAN). Contact the system administrator for assistance if users
are not sure about which IP address to choose.
Once users have set the IP address they can use the web
interface to modify all other settings. See page 19 for more infor-
mation.
