and is running.
When the unit is being reset from the front panel, this LED blinks the appropriate

”).

Setting Up the System Using the Front Panel

The following system setup procedures can be performed using the front panel, Global
Configurator, the embedded web pages, or SIS commands.
This section discusses the front panel procedures. For information on using the web to set
up, see “

HTML Configuration and Control

.” For the equivalent SIS commands, see “

SIS

Programming and Control

.” For information on setting up using Global Configurator, see

the IPL T PC1 Setup Guide.

NOTE: The PC1 takes approximately 2 minutes to store settings made via the front

panel, SIS commands, or the web pages into its memory. If you disconnect
power from the PC1 less than 2 minutes after entering a setting, your entry may
be lost.

Power button.
The green receptacle Power LED at the right of the
button lights and remains lit while the receptacle is
powered on. It turns off when the receptacle is powered
off.

2.

Power on the device, using its own power switch.

If power is removed from the PC1, the power state of the output receptacle is preserved
in flash memory; for example, if the receptacle was powered on when the PC1 was
disconnected, it is powered on when the PC1 receives power again. This enables the
receptacle configuration to be easily restored if a power loss occurs.

CAUTION: Some devices, such as projectors, need a cool-down period to power off

safely. Use RS-232 or IR commands to power these devices.
