LED Display

Each PDU has a built-in 4-digit LED display mounted midway down the chassis. The display
scrolls through the most recent current measurement (in amps) for each circuit, one at a time.
It displays a circuit name, pauses, and then displays the measurement. Momentarily press the
“Pause Scroll/IP Address Reset” button on the front of the PDU to pause the display on the current
measurement. While paused, the display will cycle back and forth between circuit name and
current reading every three seconds. Momentarily pressing the “Pause Scroll/IP Address Reset”
button again will skip ahead to the next circuit. The display will begin to scroll again thirty
seconds after the last button push.

Notes:

During the first cycle after the display has been paused, the display may take
up to six seconds to display a measurement.

Due to the time required to measure current accurately, the same reading may
be shown twice while the display is paused.


For reference:

Cr-1 = Circuit 1

Ph-A = Phase A

Cr-2 = Circuit 2

Ph-b = Phase B

Cr-3 = Circuit 3

Ph-C = Phase C

Cr-4 = Circuit 4

nEUt = Neutral

Cr-5 = Circuit 5

Fd-A = Feed A

Cr-6 = Circuit 6

Fd-B = Feed B

Viewing the IP Address/Resetting to Default IP

In the event that the IP address of the PDU is lost, it is possible to view the currently configured
IP address on the unit’s built-in LED display or reset the IP address to the default.

To view the IP address, press and hold the “Pause Scroll/IP Address Reset” button on the front
of the PDU for 20 seconds. The screen will stop displaying scrolling power data in order to display
the currently configured IP address. The display will show the IP address using the following
format:

c-IP

aaa

.

bbb

.

ccc

.

ddd

The ‘’ indicates a pause and the aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd indicate a portion of the currently configured
IP address. The IP address will be displayed twice before normal scrolling continues.

CAUTION: If the “Pause Scroll/IP Address Reset” button is being held while the second
segment (bbb above) of the IP address is being displayed, the unit’s IP address will be
reset. To prevent this, release the button as soon as “c-IP” shows up on the display.


To reset the IP address to the backup IP address, press and hold the “Pause Scroll/IP Address
Reset” button on the front of the PDU for 20 seconds, at which point the display will show the
current IP address. Continue to hold the “Pause Scroll/IP Address Reset” button for 10 more

seconds and the display will switch to scrolling d-IP192.168.123.123. The IP
address is then reset to 192.168.123.123. The display will resume its normal function after the
display shows the IP address twice and the “Pause Scroll/IP Address Reset” has been released.
Once the IP address has been reset, the Setting an IP Address instructions should be followed to
access the unit.
