Apc Switched Rack Pdu Factory Reset

If you forget the password to your apc rack pdu generation 2 starts with part number ap8xxx.

Apc switched rack pdu factory reset.

I like to wipe the configuration from equipment prior to disposal. Press reset button with paper clip only 2 sec is necessary. Apc switched rack power distribution units pdus enable advanced user customizable power control and active monitoring. I just had to reset an apc pdu and go thru this hassle.

Resetting the network interface using the small reset button near the network jack has no effect on the electrical output of the rack pdu or rack ats. I have three apc pdu ap7900 and i m about to dispose of one of them. I also had my serial cable for my laptop. The pdu defaults to dhcp bootp so 192 168 1 202 is from the previous user.

Fortunately i still had the serial cable required to get into the console. I could not recall the login details for any of my three pdus. You are not able to reset the unit to the factory settings on this model without gaining access via the serial console cable which is outlined in those instructions above. Can you get the cable.

Network port led s will start flashing. If not let me know. Remote outlet level controls allow power on off functionality for power recycling to remotely reboot equipment and restrict unauthorized use of individual outlets. Rack pdu switched 1u 20a 120v 8 5 20 switched rack power distribution units rack pdu provide advanced load management plus on off control at the outlet level for power cycling delayed power sequencing and outlet use management.

Immediately press reset again only 1 2 seconds needed.
