2.1. Indicators

• Main rocker switch Z (see Figure #3 above) is lit – this means that EG-PMS2-LAN is connected to the power supply and active
• The indicator Socket 1 (2,3,4) (see Figure #1 above) is lit – this means that this particular socket is switched on
• The indicator LAN activity (see Figure #2 above) blinks green – this means that there is some LAN activity taking place
• The indicator Schedule (see Figure #2 above) blinks red as the reset procedure is being executed
• The indicator Schedule (see Figure #2 above) stays red if an active hardware schedule for any socket exists
• The indicator Surge Ok (see Figure #3 above) stays on if the surge protection is well functioning

3. Installation

• It is strongly recommended to avoid damp or wet places for installation.
• EG-PMS2-LAN should be connected to the European AC wall socket of the standard DIN 49 440
• Do not plug several sockets in line
• Do not use if covered
• De-energized only if power plug is unplugged
• NEVER connect appliances which does not allow unattained operation!

3.1. Getting started

• Connect EG-PMS2-LAN to the wall socket first and then to the LAN socket (or your computer LAN card) with the provided patch cord or vice-versa.
• EG-PMS2-LAN can now be switched on and off by means of the Main rocker switch (Z).
• Two non manageable sockets are switched on and off by means of the Main rocker switch (Z) and cannot be managed by the computer – so they are called non-manageable sockets in this manual.

• If EG-PMS2-LAN is switched on then the red indicator POWER is lit. In this case both non-manageable sockets are now live and connected to the power supply.

• The sockets: Socket 1, Socket 2, Socket 3 and Socket 4 can be managed or pre-programmed by computer via LAN. They are called manageable sockets in this manual.

• The manageable sockets of EG-PMS2-LAN can be programmed to be on or off. The current status of each manageable socket is represented by the corresponding indicator which will be lit if socket has power to it.
• If the Main rocker switch (Z) (see Figure #1 above) is turned off then the manageable sockets cannot be switched on by either web server, Power manager software or the hardware schedule.
• As soon as you turn the Main rocker switch (Z) on then the web server, Power manager software or the hardware schedule will be able to turn the manageable sockets on and off.
• Master switch button (B) (see Figure #2 above) can also switch all the manageable sockets on and off regardless of their current status or schedule that is being executed. To switch them on you should keep the button pressed for 1-2 seconds. To switch them off you should keep the button pressed for more than 3 seconds.
• To protect the connected devices from possible high current and short circuit EG-PMS2-LAN is equipped with the automatic circuit breaker built in Main rocker switch.

NOTE: If the total power consumption (or peak power) of the devices, connected to EG-PMS2-LAN exceeds 2500 Watts, the circuit breaker may power EG-PMS2-LAN off. In this case, please, remove the excessive load first and then (after 2-3 minutes) press the main rocker switch (Z) to restore the power supply (see Figure #3 above).

To be able to use EG-PMS2-LAN you will now have to complete its LAN configuration.

3.2. Preparing LAN configuration of EG-PMS2-LAN

Before configuring EG-PMS2-LAN hardware settings, please, let it obtain its IP address. Follow the steps below:

- Make sure EG-PMS2-LAN is connected to the local network with the provided RJ-45 cable (option A - recommended)

NOTE: by default the factory setting of EG-PMS2-LAN is DHCP enabled. If your LAN has a router with built-in DHCP server (which is very common) then EG-PMS2-LAN will automatically get an IP address from the DHCP server. Proceed to section 3.3 below in this case.

NOTE: you may prefer to connect EG-PMS2-LAN directly to the managing computer LAN adapter (network card) using the supplied crossover RJ-45 cable (option B). You might need to use this option if your LAN does not have DHCP server.

NOTE: The embedded EG-PMS2-LAN web server doesn't work correctly in dial-up modem connections. It is recommended to access it via broadband connections, in which the network equipment has MTU packet size is 1386 or more.

If you choose for option B then the following procedure is required to let EG-PMS2-LAN obtain a fixed IP address:

• Turn EG-PMS2-LAN on (with the Main rocker switch Z)
- Press IP Config (C) button on the side control panel (see Figure #2 above) with the tip of a pen
- While holding it pressed, press and release Reset (A) button and wait for about 3 seconds until you hear the sockets switching twice

The above-mentioned procedure forces EG-PMS2-LAN to reset itself to the default settings (see below) ...

• IP: 192.168.0.254
- Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
• Gateway: 192.168.0.1
- DNS:0.0.0.0
- DHCP: enabled
• IP filtering: disabled
• Power Manager client port: 5000
• Web server port: 80

... EG-PMS2-LAN then searches for an IP address from your eventual DHCP server. If no DHCP server is found within 1 minute, EG-PMS2-LAN will then automatically revert to the default settings (see above, with IP: 192.168.0.254).

3.3. Power Manager installation

It is now time to identify which IP address has been obtained by EG-PMS2-LAN. We need to carry out the following:

• Insert the Power Manager CD into a PC CD-ROM drive. This PC can be connected either to the same LAN where the device is (if you chose option A section 3.2) or directly to the device with the crossover RJ-45 cable (if you chose option B section 3.2)
• If for any reason the automatic setup does not work, then open CD-ROM drive in the My Computer window and launch SETUP.EXE from the CD
• Follow instructions of the installation software

NOTE: Antivirus or firewall software may block connection to EG-PMS2-LAN. Please, configure antivirus/firewall to permit connection to the IP address and port of your EG-PMS2-LAN

3.4. IP configuration

The utility Find EG-PMS2-LAN (see Figure #4 below) will run automatically during the software installation but it can also be started from Start/All Programs/Gembird/Power Manager. The IP range where you would like to search for EG-PMS2-LAN will be set automatically according to the IP settings of your LAN adapter but can be changed manually in the Adapter subnet fields. Now press the Search button.

NOTE: only EG-PMS2-LAN within a local subnet can be found. If your computer LAN adapter is not in the (default) subnet of EG-PMS2-LAN (as might probably be the case if you chose option B section 3.2) you will have to change its IP address manually to be able to find EG-PMS2-LAN. For example if you wish to find EG-PMS2-LAN (with the default IP 192.168.0.254), the IP address of your computer should be set as 192.168.0.XXX (where XXX stands for any digit, for example 1) and the subnet mask should be 255.255.255.0.

After the searching the IP addresses of the found EG-PMS2-LAN devices will appear in the list box. Select EG-PMS2-LAN which you want to access, and press the Open button (see Figure #4 below).

Figure #4

The window of your default internet browser will be then opened to give you access to the built-in web-server. See section 4 below for the further details.

4. The web server

Your EG-PMS2-LAN is equipped with a web-server which allows managing the device using any web browser such as Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, etc.

4.1. Web-server login page

To access the web server of EG-PMS2-LAN, just open Internet Explorer (or other browser) and input the IP address of EG-PMS2-LAN (for example http://192.168.1.241). If you have used Find EG-PMS2-LAN utility to locate EG-PMS2-LAN then you will be taken to this webpage automatically. Login page will then be displayed (see Figure #5 below).

NOTE: Java script must be enabled in your Internet Explorer (or another browser) settings. Otherwise, you get an error message: WARNING! JAVASCRIPT IS DISABLED!

Figure #5

The default password is 1. It is recommended to change the password on the Device settings page (see section 4.6 below) after the first login.

All brands and logos are registered trademarks of their respective owners

After a successful login you will face the EnerGenie page (see section 4.2 below).

NOTE: There is a possibility that you might then need to open the LAN settings page (see section 4.5 below) to complete the IP configuration.

4.2. EnerGenie page

With the help of EnerGenie page (see Figure #6 below) you will be able to see the status of all your four manageable sockets, and to switch the sockets on and off manually. The status of your sockets, as well as the buttons to switch them on/off are located at the top of the page.

NOTE: the names of the sockets can be changed from the default Socket1/Socket2/Socket3/Socket4 to something meaningful on the page Socket Name Settings (see section 4.4 below).

The EnerGenie page also allows you to setup access and management (switch on and off) of your EG-PMS2-LAN from anywhere via Internet even if it does not have an external IP address. To setup this free service you should follow two simple steps:

- Register the device. To restrict access to the device via the Internet to the rightful owner only, the device should be registered – e.g. assigned to your account. To register the device, simply push the button Register on this page (see Figure #6 below). You will then be redirected to Login page of EnerGenie.com. If you already own an account at EnerGenie.com then just enter your login and password on this page and you are done. Otherwise, use the Registration button on the Login page to create a new account. After your successful login (regardless whether you created a new or used an existing account) your EG-PMS2-LAN is automatically registered.

- Return back to the EnerGenie page of your EG-PMS2-LAN (see Figure #6 below). Push Activate button to let the device initiate communication with EnerGenie.com server. The EnerGenie page will then start updating itself until the Status becomes Registered Activated Connected (see Figure #6 below).

Figure # 6

After a successful registration and activation the button Register will be renamed to Login (and will then open the Login page of EnerGenie.com) and the button Activate will turn into Deactivate. If by any reason you would eventually decide to stop managing your EG-PMS2-LAN from Internet use then Deactivate button to stop communication of the device with EnerGenie.com server.

If you eventually decide to change registration of your EG-PMS2-LAN and assign it to another account, it will be possible via EnerGenie.com website (see section 5 below).

See section 5 below for further details on managing your EG-PMS2-LAN via EnerGenie.com website.

4.3. Socket page

There are 4 manageable sockets on EG-PMS2-LAN and so there are 4 pages corresponding to them. On each status page you can see the socket status (on or off) and you have the Switch On (Switch Off) button. Besides you can see the scheduled events for this socket. The socket number and its eventual name (see section 4.4 below) are shown at the very top of the page (see Figure #7 below).

Figure #7

The socket shown on the Figure #7 is currently off, it will be turned on again automatically on the 9th of July at 14:40:30 and on the same day at 14:50:45 it will be switched off. Next day it will be turned on at 14:20:00 and at 14:30:15 it will be switched off. Last two events will be executed each day staring from the 10^th of July.

All brands and logos are registered trademarks of their respective owners

Below the page you can see the current time of the web-server and eventual information about the last successful timer synchronization. Automatic timer synchronization is used if Use NTP for timer correction option is enabled (see section 4.6 below).

NOTE: If a certain socket has a switching fault, e.g. it should be switched on but the whole device is switched off, or it should be off but it does have voltage, then the warning message Wrong voltage on socket! will be shown above the Event schedule (see Figure #7 above). This message might also indicate that this socket is defective.

For setting up the socket schedule click Set schedule button. You will face then the page shown below (see Figure #8).

Figure #8

Choose the date and time of the scheduled event. If you wish the event to be executed periodically then choose Periodic option and set the loop period. To commit to your changes press the Apply button. To delete the entry press the x button. To delete the entered schedule press the Clear schedule button.

All brands and logos are registered trademarks of their respective owners

NOTE: The hardware schedule keeps running even when the device is powered off. However it is recommended not to power off the device for longer than 1 week, because the built-in battery might get discharged then. In this case the internal clock of the device would be reset and as result some schedule events would not be executed. Besides all the sockets would lose their previous status (they will be switched on). In case of an empty battery, just leave the device switched on for one day to fully charge the battery again.

4.4. Socket Name settings page

On the Socket name settings page (see Figure #9 below) you can assign an applicable name to your sockets. These names will be shown on EnerGenie page (see section 4.2 above) as well as on the Socket pages (see section 4.3 above).

NOTE: The socket names can not be longer than 11 characters.

HINT: Call your socket by the device which is attached to this socket. For example call Socket 1 – TV set if your TV is connected to this socket.

Figure #9

All brands and logos are registered trademarks of their respective owners

4.5. LAN settings page

Figure #10

All brands and logos are registered trademarks of their respective owners

On the LAN settings page (see Figure #10 above) you can set up DHCP, IP address, Subnet mask, Gateway, DNS server and IP filter (up to 3 IP addresses can then be enabled for remote access).

The new settings will be applied immediately after you press the Apply button.

IP address, Subnet mask, Gateway, DNS server will be used only if the DHCP option is disabled.

If you set DHCP option it is recommended for your own convenience to set up your DHCP server so that it always provides the same IP address to EG-PMS2-LAN. To do that you will need to know the MAC address of EG-PMS2-LAN. It can be found on this page or on the bottom sticker of the device. The MAC address is fixed and cannot be changed.

DNS server address is important to be properly set up in case you wish to enable the NTP timer correction option (see section 4.6 below).

IP filter option is needed to prevent unauthorized access to the server. It restricts the web server access from any computer with IP address different from IP1, IP2 and IP3. Make sure that you input IP1, IP2, and IP3 correctly before enabling this option.

Power Manager client port is used for connecting with the Power Manager software, normally it is not needed to change this setting.

Web server port is used for access the embedded EG-PMS2-LAN web server via browser, normally it is not needed to change.

When you click "Apply" button, new changes will be applied, the device will be reset, and login webpage will be opened. You will need waiting for a few seconds then refresh the webpage manually (by clicking "Refresh" button in the browser) or change IP address and web port in address field in the browser (in case that you have changed them). If you need just to reset the device, click "Apply" button with LAN settings unchanged.

4.6. Device settings page

On the device settings page you can setup name, password and internal time of EG-PMS2-LAN (see Figure #11 below).

Figure #11

To be able to setup the schedule of EG-PMS2-LAN you have to first setup its internal clock correctly. Enter the current local time and date.

All brands and logos are registered trademarks of their respective owners

Alternatively if the option Use NTP for timer correction is enabled (by default) then the time will be taken from NTP server. The device will try to connect with the server every 18 hours. The first synchronization would take place in 15 seconds after you press the Apply button.

NTP server field should have a valid name of NTP server (by default "pool.ntp.org"). If for any reason the NTP time correction doesn't work you can choose the best NTP server for your country via the website www.pool.ntp.org.

NOTE: for NTP time correction to work properly the device should have access to the Internet and have a proper DNS server setting (see section 4.5 above).

Server name can be convenient to identify the web server if you have more than one EG-PMS2-LAN. It is “Server 1” by default. The password is necessary to access EG-PMS2-LAN both from your web browser and the Power Manager software (see section 6 below). This password is case-sensitive and can be up to 32 characters long. Alphanumeric characters and spaces are allowed to be entered. Only the first eight characters of the password are used to access the device with the Power Manager software. You will need to enter this password in the Add LAN device window (see section 7 below).

The Power Manager software accesses EG-PMS2-LAN via a certain client port (by default 5000). You can change this port to any other except the port, which is occupied by the web server.

Don't forget to push the Apply button to save your settings.

4.7. Web-server logout

Having finished working with EG-PMS2-LAN, choose Log Out in the main menu. If you don't do this, you will be logged automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity. While you are logged to the web server, it can't be accessed from any other computer. If another user tries to access the web server which is running an active session the error message will be shown on the login page: Somebody with another IP has already logged in. Try again later. In the meantime the Power Manager software (see section 6) can still access the EG-PMS2-LAN.

5. EnerGenie.com device interface

If the status of EG-PMS2-LAN shows the device not to be Connected - it could be due to the following reasons:

• Incorrect IP/Port/Password specified in the Add LAN device window
  • PC is not connected to the local network
• You are trying to access EG-PMS2-LAN from the PC which is not allowed to do so. Change PC IP address or change IP filter list in EG-PMS2-LAN hardware settings (see section 4.5 above)
• EG-PMS2-LAN is not connected to local network. To check if EG-PMS2-LAN is on your local network you can do so-called ping test:
• Go to Start->Run
• Type cmd
• Type ping in the window which would appear

Suppose EG-PMS-LAN with IP address 192.168.2.189 is connected to the local network. Then the cmd window will look as shown on the Figure #18 below:

Figure #18

- EG-PMS2-LAN is connected to local network (ping test is ok) but not responding. Reset EG-PMS2-LAN by pressing the Reset button (A) on the side control panel (see Figure #2 above) or switch it off and then on again (see Figure #1 above)

NOTE: The Reset button A (see Figure #2 above) can sometimes help if EG-PMS2-LAN can't be accessed or works abnormally. The device will then be restarted. All the IP settings and device settings will remain the same as before, but the server time will be reset and all schedules will become outdated.

8. Managing EG-PMS2-LAN via your own software

To let you switch the sockets from your own applications the following command line interface syntax is supported:

• pm.exe -[on | off] -device name -socket name

Examples:

• "C:\Program Files\Energenie\Power Manager\pm.exe" -on -My EnerGenie -Socket1
  • "E:\Utils\PM3\pm.exe" -off -My EnerGenie -Table lamp
• Execute pm.exe with -info key (pm.exe -info) to get the complete information about the status of the current devices.

For each of the connected devices the following information will then be provided and placed into Info.ini file in the Power Manager folder:

• DeviceName - the user specified device name

• Socket#name, where # is replaced by a certain socket number - the user specified socket name

• Socket#SwitchState, where # is replaced by a certain socket number - TRUE, when the socket is switched on, FALSE, when the socket is switched off

• Socket#VoltageState, where # is replaced by a certain socket number - TRUE, when voltage presence on the socket is detected, FALSE, when there is no voltage on the socket;

NOTE: Each use of this command line option totally overrides the data in Info.ini file.

NOTE: Power Manager should be active.

9. EG-PMS2-LAN SDK

For advanced users we supply the software development kit (SDK) to manage the device. Check the SDK manual in SDK folder on the supplied CD to get more information about it.
