ConneCTion To iMs-4000 hosT or noDe
The PowerGate2 connects to an IMS-4000 Host or Node using the 9-pin null modem cable (included). Connect the cable
to the RS-232 port on the PowerGate2 and connect the other end to the RS-232 port on the Host or Node. The PowerGate2
will automatically be recognized by the system and appear in the IMS-4000 ConsoleView software.

operaTion
The PowerGate2 switches power from each power input on the front of the unit to the corresponding outlet on the back
(e.g., power input 1 goes to outlet 1). Each PowerGate2 circuit can switch up to 12A of current. Be sure the power source
can supply the current required for your equipment. Do not connect several power inputs to one 15A circuit and then try to
turn on several high-current devices, as this will surely trip a breaker in your electric service panel.
ConneCT inpUT power
Attach a power cable to a power input on the front of the PowerGate2 and plug the other end into a 120VAC 15A outlet or
into an outlet on your PDU. One right-angle power cable is included. (Additional cables are available by ordering part #
IMS-4413.) Continue adding as many power cables as your application requires.
