Section 1 –System Overview
NMC Controller
All Panduit Intelligent NMCs feature a Hot Swappable NMC Controller. This centralized
piece of intelligent hardware receives an IP address, contains a Graphical Web
Interface and is addressable over the network.
Connecting the NMC via Ethernet Port
Connecting the NMC to a LAN provides communication through an Internet or Intranet
connection enabling monitoring and control over the intelligent power distribution unit.
1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Network port on the NMC (see Figure 1).
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the Network port on the router (or another
LAN device).
Figure 1: Ethernet Port for Network Connection
From the factory the NMC defaults to DHCP and HTTPSconnection. If you are
connected to a network with a DHCP server, the NMC automatically receives an IP
address. If there is no DHCP server, the NMC will assign an IP (Auto IP). The Auto IP
address will be a link-local IP address, and it can be obtained using the instructions in
Appendix C: Direct connect to the UPS via Ethernet without Bonjour. The NMC supports
mDNS to discover the DHCP IP or the Auto IP. The mDNS address format is “panduit-
ups-nmc-<macaddress>.local”. For example, the mDNS address for Figure 1
corresponds to “panduit-ups-nmc-000F9C03000B.local” The address is a unique
address based on the NMC MAC address.

Connecting the NMC to a Computer Serial Port
If unable to connect to a network, you can retrieve the network setting using the serial
interface.
To discover the network setting, perform the following steps:
1. Connect PC to the NMC USB port. See Figure 2: Serial In Port.
2. Using a Terminal emulator program, send read CLI command
•Refer to Appendix D: Command Line Interface for CLI configuration and
password change
3. Enter “read status.netStatus.*”

Section 2 –Web Graphical User Interface (GUI)
Internet Protocol (IP) Addressing
After the NMC receives an IP address, login to the Web interface to configure the NMC
and assign a static IP address (if desired).
Web Connection
Supported Web Browsers
The supported Web browsers are Google Chrome (mobile and desktop), Mozilla
Firefox, Microsoft Edge and Apple Safari (mobile and desktop).
Logging in to the Web Interface
•Open a supported web browser and enter the IP address of the NMC
(HTTPS)
•If browser displays “refused to connect” please double check that you are
using the “https://” protocol not “http://”
Figure 4: Refused Connection Example
oBy default, the Web Interface uses a self-signed certificate. Until a CA signed
certificate / key is installed, browsers will display a security error. In Chrome
browser, click advanced, then click the “Proceed to” link.

Figure 5: Certificate Warning
oIf username and password have NOT been configured, use the default
username: admin and password: admin. For security purposes, a change of
password is required upon initial login.
oIf admin credentials are lost use Appendix C to factory reset the NMC.
Figure 6: Login Page
Changing Your Password
At initial login, you are required to change the default password:
1. Enter the username, current password, and new password twice to confirm. The
passwords must be between 8 and 40 characters and follow three of the
following four rules:
a. Contain at least one lowercase character.
b. Contain at least one uppercase character.

2. Click Log In to complete the password change.
After the initial login, change the password by the following steps:
1. Click on the username and select Change Password.
