Outlet Settings for Outlets and Outlet Groups
Initiate a control action
Note: If you apply an outlet control action to outlets or outlet groups, the following delays are used for
the action:
• For an individual outlet (not in an outlet group), the action uses the delay periods and reboot
duration configured for that outlet.
• For a global outlet group, the action uses the delay periods and reboot duration configured for the
global outlet.
• For a local outlet group, the action uses the delay periods configured for the lowest-numbered
outlet in the group.
To control the outlets on your Rack PDU:
1. From the Device Manager tab, select Control from the left navigation menu.
2. Mark the checkboxes for each individual outlet or outlet group to control, or select the All
Outlets checkbox.
3. Select a Control Action from the list, and click Next >>. On the confirmation page that explains
the action, choose to apply or cancel it.
