Testing Device Power-On Behavior

Before connecting a device to a Power Control Pod, be sure to first test the device to ensure that when

power is restored to the device it powers up without requiring user interaction (such a pressing a power

button, for example).

To test the device’s power-on behavior, simply plug it directly into a standard power outlet. If the device

power on fully without requiring additional interaction it can be used properly with the Power Control

Pod. However, if you determine that the restoring power to the device does not enable the device to return

to a fully operational state then you may need to update or modify the device (such as changing power

control options in the BIOS of a server or workstation, for example) to ensure that the device will work

properly when used with your Power Control Pod.

Note

The controls that are available in the Edit Threshold window are determined by

the type of threshold that you are creating or editing. For detailed instructions on

how to create or edit thresholds, see “Advanced View: Defining Thresholds” on

page 141.
