Overview
The Axess Setup and Control Utility (SCU) is designed to facilitate installation, configuration,
and management of one or more SurgeX Axess products.
With the Setup Program, users can:
1. Automatically discover multiple Axess units on a local network.
2. Add additional Axess units not on the local network.
3. Download existing configurations from installed Axess units.
4. Save existing configurations for later use or as a backup.
5. Open saved configurations for change management.
6. Clone saved configurations for replication of similar configurations in multiple Axess units.
7. Upload modified configurations to Axess units.
8. Control outlets on one or more Axess units throughout the network.
The Axess Setup and Control Utility works securely through the network connection between a
PC (running Windows 98 or higher) and the Axess. Administrator rights are required on the
Axess to make full use of the utility. All communication between the utility and the Axess units is
encrypted using AES.
