Switched 12 VDC power output ports — These ports provide 12VDC output. For
the IPCPPro550, the four ports provide up to a combined maximum of 40watts. Once
configured, each port can be separately turned on or off. These ports are monitored
continuously for total power usage (draw).

• When the total power usage exceeds a threshold of 41watts but is still below
45watts, the IPCP enters the limit mode, during which the yellow front panel
Limit LED lights. If you have configured the unit to do so, the IPCP can issue a power
overcurrent notice.
• If power usage exceeds a second, higher threshold (47watts), the IPCP enters
overcurrent mode. It turns these ports off, and the red front panel OverLED lights.
If the ports are disabled, the user must disconnect or fix the attached devices to
correct the problem. If the power draw is still excessive, the ports remain off.
