Forgotten password The reset to factory defaults is also used when the password has been forgotten. After restoring the factory defaults, the username and password to access the PowerDIN 4PZ will be “admin” / “admin”. 4.7 Controlling the output manually The outputs can be switched on/off (toggled) by pressing the button quickly 3 times in a row.
5 Web interface 5.1 Outputs In the left menu, click Outputs. A screen showing the output appears. The output can be controlled directly with two buttons: Figure 16 – Controlling the output ON/OFF button controls the output directly. When the output is on, the button is green; when the output is off, the button is grey .
Reset button switches the output off and then back on. It is actiove only when the output is On. A confirmation is requested before the action is performed. The function is enabled only when the output is switched on. When the output is switched off, the Reset button is disabled. Click Reset to confirm the action or Cancel to cancel it.

60seconds). It means the output can be switched only when the TCP/IP connection is established. In default once every 60 seconds. If the response from Target host is error code 200 (OK) and the payload contains valid NETIO JSON structure with control command then the Output will be set accordingly. This way is possible to control device even if this is in private network behind NAT.
Also called the “community string” in SNMP. Similar to a username/password combination. Needed for reading information from NETIO device over SNMP. We recommend to use “pure” ASCII characters (that is, to avoid accented and special characters, such as @, & and so on, if possible).

5.7 Settings NETIO PowerDIN 4PZ can use the Ethernet connection (RJ45) or WiFi connection to network. When the Ethernet cable is connected the WiFi is completely turned off. When the Ethernet cable is disconnected then the WiFi turns automatically on. So Wi-Fi can be the main or only backup connection or not used.
Ethernet is disconnected. 5.7.2 Network Configuration This section allows configuring the IP parameters of the PowerDIN 4PZ network interface, which are essential for correct network operation. One of the options Wi-Fi / Ethernet or both can be configured depending on chosen connectivity.
