Electrical Installation
Step 1. Receptacle evaluation
Ensure that the plug type of your PDU unit matches the wall receptacle type that you are using.
The PDU must be plugged into a three-wire, grounded wall receptacle only. The wall receptacle must also be connected to an appropriate branch circuit/main with fuse or circuit breaker protection. Connection to any other type of wall receptacle may result in a shock hazard.
Step 2. Plug the PDU into a CyberPower UPS system (recommended) or the wall receptacle.

Step 3. Attach equipment
It is extremely important not to exceed the PDUs maximum current load (as outlined in the Specifications section). In order to determine your total load, simply use the LCD screen on the front of the PDU to monitor the load being attached.

Network Installation
Step 1 – Network Connection
Using an Ethernet cable, attach one end to the Ethernet port on the front of the PDU, and the other end to a network port.
Step 2 – Establish the PDU IP address
Assigning an IP address to the CyberPower PDU requires the user to have an available IP address that is valid on the respective network. If an available IP address is unknown, contact the network administrator to obtain one.
DHCP is enabled by factory default. If the PDU does not receive an IP address from the network’s DHCP server, it will default to 192.168.20.177.
There are multiple methods for setting up the IP address on the PDU. Please follow the instructions below for the method that is appropriate for your application.
Please make sure the PDU is powered on during this process.
Option 1: Power Device Network Utility (recommended)

  1. Download and install the Power Device Network Utility software from www.cyberpower.com.
  2. Open the Power Device Network Utility and select the PDU device from the list and select Tools > Device Setup from the menu.
  3. Configure the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address to match your network settings.
  4. Enter the user name and password of the PDU device at the Authentication menu.

Note: The default username is “cyber” and the default password is “cyber”.
Option 2: DHCP Server

  1. Ask your administrator if there is DHCP server on the LAN.
  2. Make sure the DHCP is Enabled.
  3. Make sure the network connection is ready and power on the PDU.
  4. The PDU will obtain an IP address from the DHCP server automatically.

Option 3: Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) Command

  1. Obtain the MAC address from the sticker on the PDU.

  2. Open a command prompt as an administrator and type the following:
    “arp -s [available IP address] [MAC address of PDU]”. Example: arp -s 192.168.20.240 IP Address 00-0c-15-80-00-01 MAC Address

  3. Use the Ping command to assign a size of 123 bytes to the IP.

  • Type in “ping 192.168.20.240 -l 123” then press Enter.
  • If the replies are received, your computer can communicate with the IP address

Option 4: Hyper Terminal or Terminal Emulator

  1. Use the included RJ45/DB9 serial port connection cable, attach one end to the serial port on the front of the PDU, and the other end to the PC/ server.
  2. Open the Hyper Terminal software on your PC and select a name and icon for the connection.
  3. Setup the COM port settings using the values indicated in Appendix A.
  4. Press Enter to enter the Authentication menu.

When there are many devices on the local network, it may take extended periods of time to locate all the devices. The timeout function is used to limit the search time.
The default setting is 3 seconds. Valid values are 3 to 60 seconds.

Appendix C-PDU Daisy-Chain Function

The daisy-chain function allows up to four PDUs to be connected together to be monitored and controlled from one IP address.

CyberPower PDU81405 Power Distribution Unit - Appendix
11

When PDUs are connected, two roles are defined: Host and Guest. Up to three Guest PDUs can be connected to one Host PDU. The Guest PDUs will be recognized by serial number and their order within the daisy-chain.
Note: To perform the daisy-chain function, the firmware version of the connected PDUs needs to be the same (v1.07 or above).
How to connect the PDUs together?
Use one Ethernet cable and connect one end of it to the daisy-chain (Out) port on the Host PDU and the other end to the daisy-chain (In/ENV) port on the Guest 1 PDU to connect the PDUs (as shown below).

CyberPower PDU81405 Power Distribution Unit - Appendix
12

What remote management protocols are supported in PDU daisy-chains?
Currently users can monitor and control daisy-chained PDUs through Web interface (HTTP/HTTPS) or SNMP protocols.
What functions on the Web pages does daisy-chain support?
Please find in below table:

Summary|
---|---
PDU| Device Status
Outlet Status
Device Manager
Outlet Manager
Outlet Control
Outlet Schedule
Log| Status Records
Energy Records
Graphing
System| Identification

How to switch between Host and Guest PDUs on the Web interface?
Functionality supported by daisy-chained PDUs will have the Host/Guest # drop down menu displayed on the Web interface (as shown below).

CyberPower PDU81405 Power Distribution Unit - Appendix
13

Can I upgrade the firmware version of the Guest PDUs through the Host PDU?
Yes, you can upgrade the firmware using the Upgrade and Configuration Utility, FTP (network connection required), or USB port. Once the Hostcompletes the PDU firmware upgrade, it will trigger its Guest PDUs to upgrade the firmware automatically. It takes about 5 minutes for the Guest PDUs to upgrade, regardless of the number of PDUs in the series.
What will happen if an Ethernet cable is disconnected in the PDU daisy- chain?
For example, if four PDUs are connected and the cable connecting Guest 1 and 2 is disconnected, then Guest 2 and 3 will no longer be detected by the Host PDU. An event showing that Guest 2 and 3 are removed will be recorded in the Host PDU. Meanwhile, Guest 2 and 3 will create a new daisy-chain where Guest 2 becomes a Host and Guest 3 becomes Guest 1 to the new Host.

CyberPower PDU81405 Power Distribution Unit - Appendix
14

In the above example, if the disconnected Ethernet cable is reconnected, will the role of the PDUs stay the same?
Yes, when the disconnected cable between Guest 1 and 2 is re- connected, Guest 2 and 3 will revert to their previous roles.
What happens if one PDU in the daisy-chain is powered off?
For example, if four PDUs are connected and Guest 1 is powered o, an event showing that Guest 1, 2 and 3 are removed will be recorded in the Host PDU. Guest 2 and 3 will not create another daisy-chain.
Does the Host PDU record the logs of the Guest PDUs and itself?
Yes, the Host PDU records the logs from all Guest PDUs daisy- chained to it.
Will the Logs of the Guest PDUs recorded in the Host PDU be cleared if the Guest PDUs are removed from the Host PDU?
No, the Logs of the Guest PDUs will remain even after the Guest PDUs are removed.
Does the Host PDU record the Status Records of the Guest PDUs and itself?
Yes, the Host PDU records the Status Records for all the PDUs in the daisy- chain.
Will the Status Records of the Guest PDUs logged in the Host PDU be cleared if the Guest PDUs are disconnected from the Host PDU?
Yes, once the Guest PDUs are removed, the Status Records logged in the Host PDU will be cleared. As long as the Host PDU does not connect to other PDUs, the Status Records of the disconnected PDU can be displayed when it is re- connected to the Host PDU. If the Host PDU connects to dierent PDUs, the Status Records of the removed PDU will be entirely cleared.
Are the Guest PDUs able to connect to the network when they are daisy- chained?
Yes, even when the PDUs are daisy-chained, the Guest PDUs are able to connect to the network directly. Note that a Guest PDU will require having its own Ethernet cable connected to the network.
What will happen if a 5th PDU is added to a daisy-chain?
The maximum number of PDUs that can be connected in one daisychain is 4.
The daisy-chain functionality will not work until the fifth PDU is removed.
What is the maximum recommended length of the Ethernet cable to daisy-chain the PDUs?
50 ft (15 m)

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause Solution
The PDUs are connected but the daisy-chain function is not working. – The

firmware version does not support daisychain.
– The PDUs have dierent firmware versions.| Check the firmware version of each PDU and upgrade it to v1.08 or above.
I cannot set the EnergyWise configuration on a Guest PDU.| Only the Host PDU supports EnergyWise.| N/A
