RPM Benefits
Utilizing Minuteman's remote power manager products
allows technicians and administrators to:
• Save Time: Reboot remote devices in seconds, not
minutes or hours
• Increase Productivity: Eliminate help desk calls & lost
time when a device locks up: RPM noties & provides
automatic reboot capabilities
• Cut Costs: Eliminate service calls to remote locations
by managing devices from your computer or smartphone
Monitor RPM Information in Real Time
The Information tabs provide real time status of the RPM, including
real time combined current draw (g. 1), user congurable warning and
overload thresholds. Network information, including MAC address
and RPM name settings, are also displayed on the System tab (g. 2),
allowing quick reference for identication when multiple RPMs are in use.
g. 1: Main Interface
g. 2: System tab
Control Connected Devices
Within the four control tabs, users can control
individual outlets via On/Off/Reboot (OFF/
ON) commands (g. 4). Users can also group
outlets to allow multiple devices which work
together to be controlled simultaneously.
g. 4: Outlet tab
The user can also schedule power on, off,
or reboots at specic times/dates (one time or
recurring) for indivduals or groups of receptacles
(g. 5). With this feature, administrators can
save power by scheduling network downtime on
weekends and holidays.

g. 5: Schedule tab
g. 6: Ping Action tab
The Ping Action tab (g. 6) enables the
RPM to "ping" a device connected to a specic
receptacle. If unanswered, the device can be
rebooted to unlock it, preventing downtime.

Configuring the RPM
A wide array of settings are accessible in the conguration tabs,
allowing users to adapt individual or groups of outlets to the needs of
individual devices. These changes may be made on the y, providing
unparalleled versatility and adaptability.
g. 7: RPM tab
g. 8: Mail tab
Users can assign a descriptive name to each receptacle to prevent
confusion, and set a startup and power-down delay sequencing when
necessary (g. 7). Users can also set up to three email addresses (g. 8)
to receive notication messages when any event takes place, including
warning and overload thresholds, power events, and lockups.
Additional conguration parameters include:
Secure Connection with SSL
Minuteman's RPM products feature SSL
security capability. When the SSL function is
enabled, all communication with the device is
done via HTTPs secure IP address, ensuring a
safe and secure connection.
The user is able to congure custom user ID
and password for SSL access.
Threshold Tab
Congure warning and
overload levels for amperage load on the RPM unit;
notications sent via email
or SNMP trap
Network Tab
Settings for IP-address
selection; DHCP enabled
by default, static IP can
be dened if desired
SNMP Tab
Congure the RPM to
send Simple Network
Management Protocol
traps to notify when an
event occurs
Enterprise RPM Management Utility Included

location to monitor the status and review conguration information for all
RPM devices across a network. Features include:
• Function Menu: Provides device information as well as data/event
logging results for individual RPM units
• RPM List: Network tree showing all individual or group RPM on the
LAN
• RPM Information: An itemized list of status and device information for
all RPM units on LAN
Time Tab
Users can set RPM system time manually, or to
