Power ON Delay Sets the amount of time the eco PDU waits after the Power Button
is clicked (see Outlet Status, page 34), before it turns on the power
to the outlet.

When a series of outlets are scheduled to be powered up, they turn on in
sequence with a default delay of 10 milliseconds between each outlet.
Power OFF Delay Sets the amount of time the eco PDU waits after the Power Button

to the outlet.
For the System after AC Back option (see below), after the delay

shuts the computer down.
The default delay time is 15 seconds. The maximum delay time is
999 seconds.
Remote Turn ON
Method
Use the drop-down menu to select one of the choices, below:
Wake on LAN: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart option. If this
is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the eco PDU first sends
a message to the computer telling it to prepare for a shutdown; it
then waits for the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field to
give the OS time to close down before the computer is powered
down to standby mode.
Likewise, when the Outlet is turned On, the eco PDU waits for the
amount time set in the Power On Delay field, then sends an
Ethernet message to the computer connected to the Outlet telling
the computer to turn itself On.
Note: For Safe Shutdown and Restart, the computer must be running
Windows (98 or higher), or Linux, and the Safe Shutdown program
(available by download from our website), must be installed and running on
the computer.
System after AC Back: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart
option. If this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the eco
PDU first sends a message to the computer telling it to prepare
for a shutdown; it then waits for the amount time set in the Power
Off Delay field to give the OS time to close down before the
computer is powered down.
When the Outlet is turned On, the eco PDU waits for the amount
time set in the Power On Delay field, then sends power to the
server. When the server receives the power, it turns itself on.
Note: For Safe Shutdown and Reboot, the computer must be running
Windows (98 or higher), or Linux, and the Safe Shutdown program
(available by download from our website), must be installed and running on
the computer.
Kill the Power: If this option is selected, the eco PFDU waits for
the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field, and then turns
the Outlet's power Off. Turning the power off performs a cold
(non-safe) shutdown.
MAC Address In order to use either of the Safe Shutdown and Restart methods
the MAC address of the computer connected to the outlet must be
filled in here.
