4.2 Features
ZCS (Zero Current Switching)
ZCS (Zero Current Swit ching) funct ion ensures t hat t he relay cont act is closed
at t he moment of zero volt age and opened at t he moment when zero current
f lows t hrough it .
Closing and opening at t hese exact moment s has a number of advant ages:
The negat ive effect s of inrush current on t he lif et ime of t he relay in t he
NETIO device are significant ly reduced.
Reduced probabilit y of a circuit breaker t ripping in t he circuit branch
where t he appliance wit h a high inrush current is connect ed.
Significant ly improved lifet ime of swit ching supplies in appliances t hat are connect ed t o t he
socket (especial ly in case of frequent swit ching on and of f).
Significant ly reduced elect romagnet ic int erf erence caused by repeat ed swit ching on and of f.
Zero current switching (ZCS) significantly improves t he lifet ime of t he PowerCable and t he
connect ed end devices. This f unct ion is part icularly import ant in case of f requent swit ching.
IOC (Independent Output Control)
Independent Out put Cont rol funct ion of t he PowerCable uses an independent
syst em t hat ensures a st able operat ion of t he out put even if t he main syst em
is being rest art ed, updat ed, or is boot ing.
Thanks t o IOC, t he cont rol led out put can power devices t hat , for t echnical
reasons, must be powered wit hout int errupt ion (such as servers). The out put
cont rol is complet ely independent f rom t he WiFi or LAN communicat ion
subsystem.
PowerUp State
The PowerUp St at e paramet er (somet imes also call ed Cold start ) def ines t he
behavior of t he 110/ 230V power out put during t he f irst milliseconds t o seconds
af t er powering up t he devi ce, bef ore t he LAN/ WiFi communicat ion wit h a
mast er syst em is est ablished.
For some applicat ions, it is import ant t o set t he correct st at e of a power
out put immediat ely af t er power is t urned on (or rest ored). Wit h servers in
part icular it is import ant t o avoid undesired moment ary swit ching.

Quick WiFi connection setup (AP mode installation)
NETIO PowerCable creat es a WiFi net work t hat you connect t o wit h your PC
or mobile phone.
It t hen scans f or WiFi net works in t he vicinit y, and let s you choose f rom a
list and t ype t he password.
NETIO PowerCabl e t hen conf irms t he connect ion t o t he net work and
displays t he assigned IP address.
NETIO PowerCable devices can be discovered in t he LAN using the NETIO Discover t ool.
NFC Preconfig
PowerCable can be pre-configured using NFC even wit hout being swit ched on.
This require a mobile phone wit h Android syst em, NFC funct ion and mobi le
applicat ion „NETIO Mobile 2“ .
The set t ings configured over NFC will be applied when t he device is powered on.
In t his way, it is possible t o configure or show:
Set SSID and password f or connect ing t o WiFi
Show assigned IP address in DHCP mode
For authent icat ion, t he exist ing password to the web administ rat ion “ admin” account is used
(default “ admin” / “ admin” ).

5Configuration and control
5.1 Connecting PowerCable to a local WiFi (AP Mode)
Plug the NETIO PowerCable int o t he elect rical net work. When t he device is powered up for t he
f irst t ime, it ent ers t he “ AP mode” t hat enables basic conf igurat ion – select ion of a WiFi
net work t o which t he device will connect (yellow LED f lashes rapidly).
On a comput er, t ablet or smart phone, display available WiFi net works and connect t o t he
unsecured “ PowerCable-AP-xx” network (Figure 12).
Device conf igurat ion page should open aut omat ically. If not , open a web browser and ent er
htt p:/ / 10.0. 42. 1 You will see NETIO PowerCable WiFi conf igurat ion page. (Figure 13).
Figure 12 – Connect i ng t o Power Cabl e AP Figure 13 – Web Int er f ace in AP mode

18
Select your net work in t he list of det ect ed net works and click “ Next ” (Figure 14).
Ent er t he password for the select ed WiFi net work. You may also change t he device name. If
your net work does not use DHCP, unselect t his opt ion and manually ent er t he IP address and
ot her net work paramet ers (Figure 16; f or expert s onl y). Click “ Next ” t o confirm (Figure 15).
Figure 14 –Net work sel ect ion in AP mode Figure 15 – Connect ing t o Wi-Fi i n AP mode
If you do NOT use a DHCP server in your net work, set t he
f ollowing paramet ers:
AP Password – password f or t he net work t o which t he
PowerCable will be connect ed
Client IP – IP address in your net work address range
Client mask – net work mask f or your net work
Gat eway – gat eway for your net work
DNS – DNS server for your net work or a public DNS, e. g.
8.8.8.8
Device name – specify a name under which t he
PowerCable will be visible in t he local net work
For more inf ormat ion, see chapt er 5.6 Net work Conf igurat ion

A page wit h t he connect ion result is displayed. If it shows “ WiFi st at us: Connect ed“ , check t he
net work paramet ers and t hen click “ Save&Connect ” t o save t he configurat ion (Figure 17). The
device t hen exit s t he AP mode, connect s t o t he select ed WiFi net work, and displays a net work
configurat ion summary page (Figure 18). WiFi connect ion is indicat ed wit h t he yellow LED.

5.2 NFC installation in 60 seconds
NFC (Near Field Communi cat ion) is a t echnology support ed by some mobile phones (and t ablet s).
Using a mobile phone wit h NFC support and t he NETIO Mobile 2 app, even a device that is powered
off can be configured. The device will apply t he new configurat ion as soon as it is powered on.
For example:
NFC can be used t o conf igure t he WiFi connect ion paramet ers (net work SSID + password) in t he
PowerCable MQTT 101x. When t he PowerCable is powered on, it aut omat ical ly connect s t o t he
specif ied WiFi net work.
NFC and t he mobile app can be used t o find out t he IP address assigned t o t he inst alled WiFi
device.
For aut hent icat ion NFC config, t he exist ing password t o t he web administ rat ion “ admin” account is
used (default “ admin” / “ admin” ).
5.2.1 NETIO Mobile2 for Android
NETIO Mobile2 applicat ion is f or cont rol NETIO devices produced
aft er 2016.
Feat ures:
Inst all NFC enabl ed NETIO devices
Swit ch On / Off each power socket on local net work.
Show power consumpt ion on each power out put (if
support ed).
Searching NETIO devices in local net work

5.3 Detecting and configuring the IP address
If you have f ollowed t he inst ruct ions in t he previous chapt er, you know t he PowerCable’ s IP
address, whet her it was assigned by a DHCP server or configured manually. If you forgot t he IP
address, or if you have received a pre-configured device, you will need t o find out it s IP address.
Use Windows based NETIO Discover ut ilit y, available for download at ht t p: / / www.net io-
product s.com/ en/ software/ net io-discover.
Depending on your operat ing syst em, choose t he .exe file (Windows) or the .j ar f ile (Linux or Mac).
To run t he .j ar file, JAVA RE is needed. It is available at : www.j ava.com
