1. CONNECTION
Connect the IPower Control unit to the mains and to your Ethernet network. There are eight
LEDs at the front of the unit which relate to the switching state of the ports. When using the
IPower Control for the first time all LEDs will simultaneously light up red.
When reconnecting the IPower Control to a power supply the LEDs will light up successively
(during this procedure the IPower Control is not available via a web browser). Depending on
the ports switching state the LEDs will illuminate red (port is switched off) or green (port is
switched on). If the IPower Control is additionally connected to an existing Ethernet network a
green LED next to the LAN input will illuminate.
An IP address must be allocated to the IPower Control in order for it to switch via Ethernet. The
IP address must belong to the desired sub network. The allocation can be accomplished either
manually or automatically by a DHCP server (see 2.1 below). For manual allocation under
Windows, we recommend the program IPCnet_conf.exe
After modifying the IP settings the IPower Control can be switched by all PCs on the same
network via the website of the IPower Control.
2. IP SETTINGS
2.1 Allocation by DHCP
If there is a DHCP server available on the network an unused IP address will be allocated
automatically each time the IPower Control is connected. This option can be disabled (see
section 6) or modified by appropriate configuration of the DHCP server.
2.2 Allocation via software
Enter an unused IP address and the gateway of the desired sub network. Save changes with
Program Device/SaveConfig.
After changing the network settings the IPower Control must be restarted
(see section 7). After restarting click on Search in order to display the modified settings.

Start the IPower Control in boot
mode (see section 7) and launch
the IPCnet_conf.exe program.
The program will automatically
search for connected devices
and display their IP settings. If
the
