Changing the PDU-Defined Cycling Power-Off Period

This section applies to outlet-switching capable models only.

The "PDU‑defined" power-off period determines how long it takes for ALL outlets to turn on after they are turned OFF during the power cycle. The default PDU‑defined power-off period is 10 seconds (10 s).

Note: To set a different power-off period on a particular outlet, see Changing the Outlet-Specific Cycling Power-Off Period.

  1. Click the PDU folder.

    Note: The folder is named "my PX" by default. The name can be customized.

  2. Click Setup in the Settings section. The Pdu Setup dialog appears.
  3. In the "Power off period during power cycle" field, click the drop-down arrow and select an option from the list. Valid range is zero second to one hour.

    Time units in the list are explained below:

    You can also type a value if the desired time is not listed. For example, type "15 s" for 15 seconds.

  4. Click OK.

Tip: When there are a large number of outlets, set the value to a lower number so that you can avoid a long wait before all the outlets are available again.
