Connect power cables. For the USA model (NEMA5-15P 100-120V outlets), the individual
max output current per outlet is 6A and the total max output current for the 4 outlets is 15A.
Use a power IN cable with 15A current rating and use power OUT cabless with 10A rating
for each power outlet.
For the European/Australian model (IEC320-C13 220-250V outlets) the individual max
output current per outlet is 6A and the total max output current for the 4 outlets is 10A. Use a
power IN cable with 10A current rating and use power OUT cable with 10A rating for each
power outlet.
Connect IP Power NETWORK port to your local 10/100 LAN
3) Set IP Power IP address
The IP Power’s default network settings are:
IP address: 192.168.0.50
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
To set a new address, either:
Connect your PC directly to the IP Power’s Ethernet
(NETWORK) port and run IPEdit.exe. You first must
copy the IPEdit.exe program from the IP Power CD
on to your PC; or
With a PC in the same subnet as the IP Power (i.e.
IP address of 192.168.0.xxx), open the IP Power
control web pages as detailed in the next step and select System: Setup
