To control power from the Outlet Selection Menu
A connected Power Strip is treated as a tiered device. The Power Strip,
therefore, has its own device menu consisting of “ports” for each power
outlet with which power can be controlled on a per-outlet basis.
Navigate the Paragon II OSUI Selection Menu, select the Raritan
Power Strip and press Enter. You will now be at the “Outlet
Selection” menu.
A list of outlets (up to 8 per page) will appear. Outlets in green are
switched ON; outlets in black are switched OFF.
Press X, O, or R to turn off, turn on, or recycle power to the outlet
respectively. Type yes to confirm turning off the power if you select
X or R.
Getting Power Strip Unit Status from the Outlet Selection Menu
At any time while navigating the “Outlet Selection” Menu, pressing F11
will provide a status screen showing certain parameters of the connected
power strip. These parameters vary depending on the model of the
power strip, and they may include:
Average power
True RMS Current
True RMS Voltage
Internal Temperature
Apparent Power
Maximum Detected
Outlet Circuit Breaker
Note: Unlike second-tier channel ports, the power outlet “channel ports”
will not appear in the list of channels when the OSUI is sorted by the
channel name.
