- Integrate control of NETIO PDUs in the SKAARHOJ panels
- Turn On/Off/Restart any 110/230V powered device from the with button on your panel.
- Monitor power consumption on each output (show values on the display)
The most fundamental function is to toggle power socket output from panel. You can do it locally or remotely, depend where you are currently located. Display on the SHAARHOJ panels are useful to monitor power consumption on each output of the PDU.
Control of NETIO products are assumed to be added to existing configurations, so most often you will want to add a toggle button for a socket to a controller in particular menu. A few defaults configurations exist as well for more generic use.
