Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the LINDY 12 Port iPower Control Power Switch. This iPower Switch has two different versions, 32660 measures the power throughput for each bank of six, 32690 measures the power throughput for each port.

Package Contents

 12 Port iPower Control  12 x IEC C13 to C14 Extension Cables ~3m  2 x C19 to UK Power Cables ~2m  CD containing software & manual  LINDY Manual

Features

 Measure voltage, current, active power, reactive power, apparent power, frequency, phase angle

and power factor

 Switching of 12 output loads  Optional temperature and humidity sensors available  Two, four digit 7 segment LED displays (for display of current, temperature or humidity)  Over voltage protection on both inputs  Control and monitoring via web interface  Email notifications for power changes and environment changes

Installation

1. 6 plain text displays (on/off) for the state of the outputs (Bank A or B)

2. Current power consumption of the Bank

3. LED indicator notifying if the Bank is connected to mains supply

4. LED indicator for Over Voltage Protection (green - surge protection active, red - inactive)

5. Status LED

6. Select button

7. OK button

8. Ethernet connector (RJ45)

9. External sensor connectors (RJ45)

10. RS232 connector

User Manual English

11. Mains supply Bank B (IEC C20, max.16A)

12. 6 x Load outputs Bank B (IEC C13, max. 16A)

13. 6 x Load outputs Bank A (IEC C13, max. 16A)

14. Mains supply Bank A (IEC C20, max.16A)

Starting-up the device

 Connect the two power cords (IEC C19, max. 16A) to the mains supply. Ensure the cables are

firmly pushed into the socket to avoid bad power connections.

 Plug the network cable into the Ethernet socket (RJ45).  If required, setup a serial connection to the RS232 port.  Insert optional external sensors.  Connect the output ports (IEC C13, max. 10A) to your devices requiring power

Dual-Circuit Characteristics

The iPower Control has two different input circuits (Banks A and B). The mains supply A (IEC C20, max. 16A) feeds the current to the load outputs A1 to A6 (IEC C13, max. 10A), mains supply B feeds the current to the load outputs B1 to B6 (IEC C13, max. 10A).

Twin Port

Two ports of different banks but with the same number can be combined to a "twin port". Then one port always participates in the switching status of the other port. In the screenshot the ports A1 and B1 are combined, symbolized by the chain link icon. The "Connect twin port" option can be found in the chapter "Configuration - Power Ports".

Current less Bank

If a bank is not receiving power, a red "L" appears on the front panel display, while an operating power supply shows a green "L". In the event of the current, loss all relays are switched off by the electronics, but the "On" and "Off" LEDs still show the state of the relays when the supply was active. This is symbolized by the flashing of the LEDs.

User Manual English

Overvoltage Protection

The device contains an overvoltage protection for each bank, this is designed to protect the internal electronics and power ports with failure detection. The state of the protection is indicated on the front panel by a green or red flash. A green flash means that the protection is active, a red flash symbolizes that the overvoltage protection has failed. The status of the overvoltage protection can also be seen on the Webpage (HTTP) and acquired with SNMP.

Once the overvoltage protection function has blown the protective circuits, the device will continue to

work but will not provide any further overvoltage protection.

A signal via e-mail, Syslog or SNMP trap will be sent at the moment in which the protection fails. In addition, at the startup of the device a message is generated, when the overvoltage protection is not active.

Status LED The Status LED shows different states of the device:

 Red: Device is not connected to the Ethernet  Orange: Device is connected to the Ethernet, TCP/IP settings are not allocated  Green: Device is connected to the Ethernet, TCP/IP settings allocated  Periodic blinking: Device is in Bootloader mode

Bootloader Mode Certain actions can, for safety reasons, only be carried out if the device is in bootloader mode. The

following operations are possible only in Bootloader Mode:

 Firmware Update  Configuration with GBL_Conf.exe  Factory Reset

Activation of the Bootloader Mode

via push button:  Hold both buttons for 3 seconds (only if the device has 2 buttons)

 Remove the power supply  Hold down the button (or the "Select" button for devices with 2 buttons). If the push button is

recessed, use a pin or paper clip

 Connect the power supply by Software: (only if "Enable FW to BL" was previously activated in GBL_Conf.exe)

 Start GBL_Conf.exe  Do a network search with the "Search" menu action  Activate in menu "Program Device" the item "Enter Bootloader"

If the device is in bootloader mode, the status LED will be flashing, or it is shown in GBL_Conf.exe, after a renewed device search, with the appendix "BOOT-LDR" after the device name. In bootloader mode the program GBL_Conf.exe can disable the password and the IP ACL, perform a firmware update, and restore the factory settings.

Activation of the bootloader mode and an abandonment of the bootloader does not change the state of the power or output ports as long as the supply voltage is maintained.

User Manual English

Abandonment of the Bootloader Mode

via push button:  Hold both buttons for 3 seconds (only if the device has 2 buttons)

or  Remove and connect the power supply without pressing a button

by Software:

 Start GBL_Conf.exe  Do a network search with the "Search" menu action  In menu "Program Device" activate the item "Enter Firmware"

Factory Reset

If the device is in bootloader mode, it can always be put back to its factory default. All TCP / IP settings are reset in this operation.

via push button:

 Activate the Bootloader Mode of the device  Hold down the button (or the "Select" button for devices with 2 buttons) for 6 seconds. If the push

button is recessed, use a pin or paper clip

 The status LED will blink in a fast rhythm, please wait until the LED blinks slowly (about 5 seconds) by Software:

 Activate the Bootloader Mode of the device  Start GBL_Conf.exe  In menu "Program Device" activate the item "Reset to Fab Settings"  The status LED will blink in a fast rhythm, please wait until the LED blinks slowly (about 5 seconds)

Firmware-Update

To perform a firmware update, the program GBL_Conf.exe and the latest firmware is needed.

 Enable the bootloader mode (see Chapter Bootloader Mode)  Start GBL_Conf.exe  Select the device for which a firmware update is to be performed  Click "Program Device" and then select there "Firmware Update"  Specify the firmware file that should be uploaded

Upon completion of the update process, please start the new firmware of the device. You can do this by simply leaving the bootloader mode.

A firmware update, unlike other functions, is not sent as a network broadcast. Therefore, the device must have a valid IP address and a valid netmask before the firmware update. If necessary, please correct the entries in GBL_Conf.exe in bootloader mode and save them with "Save Config".

If after a firmware update, the web page is not displayed correctly anymore, this may be related to the interaction of JavaScript with an outdated browser cache. It is recommended that you manually delete the cache in the browser options. Alternatively, you can test start the browser in "private mode".
