1. DESCRIPTION
ePowerSwitch*8XM is a power control unit with a built-in Web server, an Ethernet and a RS232
connection. It enables to control the power supply of 8 power outlets through an Ethernet connection. The
number of controlled power outlets can be extended up to 136 by cascading up to 16 ePowerSwitch 8XS
to the Master. It supports a maximum load of 2x10A through 2 separate power inputs.
This high security unit offers HTTPS protocol with Web browsers that support SSL version 2 or 3.
It also supports plenty of control options to increase the security of your facilities and reduce unforeseen
downtimes of your equipment. Its modular conception allows to monitor many sensors and trigger
emergency actions like alert sending via SNMP traps, Email or Syslog messages. It is able to record all
events into a time-stamped log file.

Term (RS485 Termination DIP Switch)
The xBus interface (RS485) has built-in termination resistors. To enable these resistors slide the two
DIP Switch to the ON position (down).
Termination should be enabled at the two end stations on an RS485 network.
No more than two stations should be terminated on an RS485 network.

12 VDC AUX Power Supply
The Web server can be powered either by power input A or power input B.
To increase the operational safety of the Web server, an auxiliary power supply (12 VDC / 300 mA) can
be connected to this input (double insulated, ie. not connected to ground).

2. INSTALLATION
Remark:
Make sure that the ePowerSwitch 8XM is powered off.
Connection instructions
1. Use a shielded RJ45 network cable to connect your ePowerSwitch 8XM to the network.
2. Use appropriated three-wire power cords (two poles plus ground) to connect your electrical devices to
the ePowerSwitch 8XM unit.
3. Plug the 2 power cables into 2 grounded sockets. The power supply LED of group A and of group B
light on to confirm that power is on.
4. You can now configure the ePowerSwitch 8XM by following the indications of the chapter
"Configuration of the ePowerSwitch 8XM".

3. CONFIGURATION
To use the ePowerSwitch 8XM on your network, you must first configure its network parameters. Ask your
network administrator for the parameters to use.
There are three methods to configure the network parameters of the ePowerSwitch 8XM:
3.1. Configuration through the LAN using the Finder program
It is the simplest and fastest configuration method if you use Windows as operating system. It allows to
configure your ePowerSwitch 8XM through your local network even if its network parameters are not
compatible with those of your PC.
1. Start the Finder.exe program contained on the CD-ROM.
2. Open the File menu and choose SCAN (or click on the first left button in the tool bar) to discover the
ePowerSwitch 8XM connected on your LAN.
3. Open the File menu and choose CONFIGURE (or click on the second left button in the tool bar) to
configure the network parameters.
This page enables to define all IP parameters of the ePowerSwitch 8XM device and displays the
version of the Firmware. The HTTP protocol is enabled and the Finder program is authorized at factory
settings.
!!! To achieve the highest security level we suggest to disable the configuration using the
Finder program after the first installation.
