powercontrolfunctions.
The Plug Group Control Screen is used to send switching and reboot commands to
the user-defined Plug Groups. As described in Section 5.6, Plug Groups allow you to
specify a group of outlets that are dedicated to a similar purpose or client, and then
direct switching commands to the group, rather than switching one plug at a time.
To apply power switching commands to Plug Groups, first access command mode via
the Web Browser Interface (see Section 5.1.) Click on the "Plug Group Control" link on
the left hand side of the screen to display the Plug Group Control Screen. When the
Plug Group Control Screen appears, click the down arrow in the "Action" column for
the desired Plug Group(s), then select the desired switching option from the dropdown
menu and click on the "Confirm Plug Actions" button
When the "Confirm Plug Group Actions" button is pressed, the RSM-8R8 Series unit
will display a screen which lists the selected action(s) and asks for confirmation before
proceeding. To implement the selected plug group action(s), click on the "Execute Plug
Group Actions" button. The RSM-8R8 Series unit will display a screen which indicates
that a switching operation is in progress, then display the Plug Status screen when the
command is complete. At that time, the Status Screen will list the updated On/Off status
of each plug.
