1. Product Introduction
The SMARTPOWER 2L is an Internet ready SNMP device designed with integrated versatile
functions including power control, remote web administration, event alerts into one single unit,
which helps system administrators or IT personnel to monitor and control their connected
equipment and take preventive measures when needed.Allows an administrator to remotely
control the AC power for two connected devices, such as: servers, routers, modems, DVRs,
security and telephone equipment.
The SMARTPOWER 2L offers: easy set up, user-friendly communications and control methods.
Easily connects to the LAN using normal Ethernet connection. Once connected and properly set
up, the administrator can manage the AC power of the need for on-site service. Additional benefits
from employing this intelligent power distribution system including:
Improves administrative efficiencies with remote power monitoring and control
Reduces system down time without dispatching service personnel to remote locations
Monitoring and management from anywhere in the world

1-7-2 Setup-Procedure
The minimum requirement to operate SMARTPOWER 2L is to setup the IPAddress,
subnet mask, and the gateway. The IP Search Utility program supports most Windows
Operating Systems (Windows NT4.0, 2000, 2003, XP, Vista).
There are two ways to perform the Setup-Procedure:
1. Open a web browser and input the default IP address. Then open the Network page
and input the information.
2. Use the IP Search Utility program (on the CD).
The default settings are:
IP address: 192.168.1.10
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway address: 192.168.1.1
Account name: admin (lower case)
Password: admin (lower case)
1. The workstation and SMARTPOWER 2L must be in the same LAN to perform the
Setup-Procedure.
2. The Windows Firewall must be turned off to operate the IP Search Utility program.
3. From the Start menu select the Control Panel.
4. Select the Windows Firewall.
5. Select Off and then click the OK button.
6. Put SMARTPOWER 2L’s CD (provided) in the CD-ROM drive.
7. Launch the IP Search Utility program.
8. Click on the Refresh button to search for all of SMARTPOWER 2L’s in the LAN. A list
of SMARTPOWER 2L will be displayed.

- 10 -
9. Click on SMARTPOWER 2L. Configure the IP address, the Gateway and the Net
Mask (Subnet) and then click on the Configure button twice. You will see the IP
address, the Gateway and the Net Mask (Subnet) for the selected SMARTPOWER
2L in the list change.
10.Repeat Step number 8 and 9 for all of SAMRTPOWER 2L in the list.
11.Once all of SMARTPOWER 2Ls are setup, close the IP Search Utility program and
turn the Windows Firewall back on.
12.This completes the initial Setup-Procedure of SMARTPOWER 2L.
13.Now you are able to monitor and control SMARTPOWER 2L via a Web Browser.
