Installation and Operations Manual
Setting the outlet locked (no control) state:
The Outlet Locked feature protects against accidental switching off of critical equipment that should rarely, if ever, be
relay-controlled. The feature also prevents unused outlets from being turned on, for example, when a circuit is at
capacity and additional devices/loads should not be turned on.
Control actions for a locked outlet will not be available in the CLI interface, and the outlet will not be affected by
group actions or Smart Load Shedding actions. SNMP control actions will be ignored for a locked outlet.
To set the outlet locked (no control) state:
At the Switched CDU: prompt, type set outlet locked, followed by an outlet name, followed by yes, and press Enter.
Example
The following command locks outlet TowerA_InfeedA_Outlet1:
Switched CDU: set outlet locked TowerA_InfeedA_Outlet1 yes
When an outlet is configured into the locked state, the outlet will lock at its current control state (On or Off). The
outlet control state will then change to Locked On or Locked Off.
The locked control state (Yes or No) displays in the outlets list using the Show Outlets command:
