1.2 Overview
Meeting All Your Power Needs via IP-based Power Outlets
PLANET IPM-4220/8220 is a 4-/8-port IP Power Management (IPM) device that provides the useful function of managing power for any combination to connect with itself. With the innovative IP-based technology, PLANET has made the traditional power management equipment into true networking devices.

Intelligent Power Management
The IPM-4220/8220 offers 4/8 power outlets, each of which can be controlled or monitored individually by the console or SNMP manager software or web interfaces. They allow users to access, configure, and manage many networking devices at the same time from remote locations to save valuable time.

Electric Current Monitored on Display
The aggregate current draw per rack PDU is displayed on the unit via a digital display. The local digital display helps installers avoid overloaded circuits by providing a visible warning when the current draw is close to the maximum amperage draw of the strip.

Scheduled Power On/Off
The IP-based Switched Power Manager allows you to pre-define a power schedule for IT equipment. It alerts users to an upcoming shutdown, and then waits a predefined amount of time to allow users to finish their work and sign off.

Overload Protection
Securing you against the risk of getting the entire circuit cut off, commonly happened with ordinary power distribution units (PDUs), when there is overloaded power, PLANET PDU, with a built-in circuit breaker and reset switch, ensures the stability of power distribution among its equipment. Its 16-amp circuit breaker prevents dangerous circuit overloads that could damage the equipment.

2.2 Product Concatenation
If the controlled device and server have the function of redundant power, then shut-down of the device requires power-off of both two power supplies. Therefore, product concatenation is provided to reach the goal of power-on/off at the same time as two power supplies.
- For concatenation of the two Switched IPM, please pay attention to the following notices:

- For the main power supply control of the Switched IPM, set the UART type as daisy chain.
Serial Port 2

- For the secondary power supply control of the Switched IPM, set the UART type as API. The power outlet of the main and secondary remote power control devices can be set to determine the power outlet requiring concatenation.
Serial Port 1

2.3 Installation Precautions
- Please set the maximum power-off protection allowed by power circuit as per the rated current information indicated on the device with reference to the local state rules, safety procedures and disconnection or deviation.
■ The unit can only be connected to a grounded power outlet or system.
■ Make sure the total current output of all the connected systems is within the rated current indicated on the device.
■ The test results of this device may be inaccurate giving unstable power supply. - Avoid using this device in places near water or moisture environments.

Note
In order to avoid a fire hazard or risk of electric shock, do not expose the product to rain or moisture.
■ Use the attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer only.
- Please avoid any items or liquids entering the device because their contact with dangerous voltage points or short-circuit parts may cause a fire or electric shock.
2.4 Hardware Installation
The IPM-8220 provides a standard 19-inch rack for the installation of devices. Please use the rack installation accessories attached with the product package (standard accessory for the IPM-8220). First install the accessories to the device and then the device to the rack.

Step 3: Enter the IP address and log in to the homepage of IPM.

Chapter 3. Quick Setup
In this section users can learn how to query device IP and how to set language, account password, network and time zone through daemon.
3.1 Network Connection
After the device is connected to the network, IP can be acquired automatically through DHCP server (The device IP will be preset to 192.168.0.10 if there is no DHCP server.). The acquired IP can be displayed on the LCD panel or device IP can be searched by IP Search Utility.
| Default DHCP Client | On |
| Default IP Address | 192.168.0.10 – if no DHCP existed in the network |
| Default Port | 80 |
| Default Login User Name | Set itself |
| Default Login Password | Set itself |
| Search Tools | ip_search |
3.2 Setup Wizard
When you use the Switched IPM for the first time, after it is connected to the Internet, browser would pop up Setup Wizard asking you to provide language, account, password, network and time zone.
Step 1: Language Selection
