Double click the name of the IP Power, and your browser window will open and
connect to the unit automatically. Alternately, manually type the IP address of the IP
Power into your browser.


NOTE

The IP Power 9258’s default IP address is 192.168.0.50 and its subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. The IP address of your computer should be in the same subnet with
that of IP Power’s (by default this subnet is 192.168.0.xxx), so that you can access
the IP Power control web pages.

Typically, you will want to find out the IP address of your PC and set the IP Power to
reside on the same subnet. To find out the IP address of your PC:

Select Start Run then type in cmd in the MS-DOS window, type in ipconfig

The IP address of the PC is 192.168.100.31, so the IP Power has been set to
192.168.100.168. Both of these address are on the 192.168.100.xxx subnet.

You may also change the PC’s IP address to be on the same subnet as the IP
Power (by default 192.168.100.xxx), in Control Panel Network Connections
Local Area Connection Properties Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties.

The default username and password of IP Power 9258 are:


Username: admin
Password: 12345678


PC or server software shutdown


The IP Power 9258 can also safety shutdown a PC or server through the network before being
powered off. This allows you to remotely shut down a PC/server attached to IP Power 9258 using
the usual Windows safe shutdown procedure. Before using the software shutdown function,
please note:

You will need to install the IP9258service.exe program from the IP Power CD as
detailed below

If you are running programs such as Microsoft Office the safe shut down may not
automatically save open documents or files which may result in lost data.

To allow enough time for the PC/server to safely shut down before being powered
off, please set the delay time at 30 or 60 second on the IP Power control web pages
Setup Delay Switch.

The PC/server to shut down must be on the same Ethernet network and on the
same subnet as the IP Power.
