Power
As soon as the Remote Power Control unit is plugged into a wall outlet, it powers ON. A green LED on the front panel is
illuminated. If disconnected from a power source, the unit’s LED is not lit, and devices connected to the unit are not receiving
power.
Power On/Off State
Each outlet on the Remote Power Control unit is individually controlled by an internal relay. Upon initialization of power, the
status of each outlet will return to the state it was in prior to losing power. For example, if Outlet 1 and Outlet 2 are On and
power is removed from the Remote Power Control, when power is restored to the unit, the status of Outlet 1 and Outlet 2 will
return to On.
Power Up Sequence
In order to minimize power surges, the Remote Power Control unit sequences power to each outlet in the On state in 0.3-second
intervals. When power is applied to the Remote Power Control unit, the initialization sequence requires a delay of 10 seconds
before power is available at the service outlets. Following the 10-second delay, the Remote Power Control unit sequences power
to each outlet that is turned On. If the REBOOT command is entered for all outlets of the unit, the Remote Power Control unit
sequences power to each outlet turned On in 0.1-second intervals.
