APPENDIX B-POWER DEVICE NETWORK UTILITY
Getting Started
The Power Device Network Utility scans the network for
devices with MAC addresses that match CyberPower
network hardware. Once found, the device(s) can then
be fgured with a specifc IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway address. This allows the device(s) to function
properly on the network and interface with CyberPower
Management Console.
Step 1. Select the appropriate PDU device from the
Equipment List (Figure 6).
Figure 6. Equipment List
Note: If the PDU does not appear on the list, click the
Refresh button to rescan the network. If it still does not
appear, ensure that the PDU is turned on and was installed
correctly. Pressing Stop will cancel the scan/refresh
process.
Note: If your computer has a software frewall installed, you
may see a Windows Security Alert message (Figure 7).
In Windows XP SP2, the default frewall alert message is
shown as Figure 7. You need to allow the Power Device
Network Utility access through the frewall. Click Unblock
to allow access.

Option 1: Assisted Setup (recommended)

List, open the Network Settings menu (Figure 8)
[Tools=>Device Setup]. In the Device Network Setting
Menu, enter a valid IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
address to setup the PDU device.

Timeout Settings
The Timeout Setting (Figure 10). [Edit=>Timeout Settings]
is used to specify the wait time when scanning for network
PDU devices. When there are many devices on the local
network, it may take extended periods of time to locate
all the devices. The timeout function is used to limit the
search time.
The default setting is 3 seconds. Valid values are 3 to
60 seconds.
