Outlet Groups
An outlet group is a named collection of selected outlets. When user-defined, an outlet group can
contain outlets from different PDUs, including both primary and link units.
Outlet groups support fast and efficient outlet control actions (On, Off, Power Cycle) across multiple
PDUs, and with PDU Linking, member outlets for the primary and its link units can be collected in the
same outlet group.
Outlet groups are managed by the primary unit, and multiple outlet groups can be controlled
simultaneously. Summary and power energy readings are available per outlet group.
The Outlet Groups page displays current user-defined outlet groups along with name, outlet state,
active power reading, and the page also shows the outlet labels that were selected for the group. Note
in the Outlets column in this example that outlets from both primary and link units display together
within a named group. This is an example of outlet "pairwise", a function described in more detail later
in this next section.
Note: Outlet groups can contain multiple pairs of outlets; the next screen example shows only two
outlet pairs in the sample groups.
Click the control arrow
to toggle the outlet group list in ascending or descending order by
group number.
