Installation Guide for Uplogix Local Managers 30
Configuring managed device and power control ports
Managed Device Ports
The device ports for the Local Manager are initially configured as native. When a supported
device is connected, the port must be initialized for the specific device in order to enable
advanced management functionality. Run the command config init to select the device make
and model, then enter the device’s login credentials, baud rate, and IP address if available.
The Local Manager will then attempt to login to the device and if successful will schedule the
default jobs for that device.

Testing login will take a few moments...
Once the initial configuration is complete, minor device changes may be recommended to
facilitate the timely and efficient collection of data from the device, such as increased console
port speed and optimized logging. For more information see the Uplogix Local Manager User
Guide or the Configuration Guide for the device being configured.
Power Control Ports
Switched power controller peripherals are used to manage power to devices connected to the
Local Manager. Like managed devices, they must be configured with the config init
command. Enter the make, model, and login credentials for the power controller being used,
and then enter the outlet mappings for the managed devices.
For full documentation of configuring managed devices and power controllers, see the
Configuring Managed Devices and Power Control section of the Uplogix Local Manager User
Guide, available on the Uplogix support website, support.uplogix.com.
