Important Information You Need Before Installation

The order and types of setup tasks for the IPL EXP power expansion interface, and for the IPCP Pro xi Series
control processors and TouchLink Pro touchpanels and NBP button panels they work with, are important. Pay close
attention to them. Follow the

About the IPL EXP PDU Models

Each IPL EXP Control System Power Expansion Interface provides centralized power management for medium
sized AV systems. These models work in combination with IPCP Pro xi Series control processors. They can also
be used as a standalone device by manually controlling the outputs (IPL EXP PDU4H) or by using Extron SIS
commands for control of the unit and power outputs without requiring a control processor (all models).
All models include the following features:
• Compatibility with IPCP Pro xi Series control processors and Virtual
Control Processors
• Ability to operate as a secure platform device in a system with
configured IPCP Pro xi Series control processors
• Ability to operate independently using a secure Extron API
(SIS commands).
They provide remote output control and ability to create schedules via software configuration or from the
embedded webpage of each IPL EXP Power unit. Each unit can also operate independently using Extron SIS
commands, enabling seamless integration for specialized applications.
Once configured, these systems allow users to remotely control, monitor, and troubleshoot AV equipment,
including display devices and switchers.

IPL EXP PDU4H

The IPL EXP PDU4H includes the following features:
• Dedicated control and monitoring of four switched AC power outputs
• Standalone manual input control for each AC output
• A single relay output
It provides remote individual AC output control and aggregate current sensing via software configuration or from
the IPL EXP PDU4H embedded webpage.
The unit includes a circuit breaker, four switched AC power outputs, four manual control inputs (contact closure
ports exclusively for controlling each power output), and a relay output port (for alert purposes).
