Use of Smart outlets

1. Connect critical equipment to a Smart outlets.

2. Connect peripheral equipment to the other Smart outlet.

– During a power outage, to conserve battery runtime, non-essential equipment can be configured to shut

down after a short delay

– If equipment has dependent peripherals that must restart or shut down in a specific order, such as an

ethernet switch that must restart before a connected server, connect the devices to separate groups

– Equipment that needs to reboot independently from other equipment should be connected to a separate

group

3. Use the Configuration menus to configure how the Smart outlets will react in the event of a power outage.

See Outlet Settings on page 37.
