Ref#92550216001
For example:
If you have the following information regarding the 9255 and your network
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
Computer IP Address : 192.168.1.122
9255 IP Address: 192.155.2.26
Sub Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Port: 8080
Since the IP Address of the 9255 is the following: 192.155.2.26
You will need to make sure that the first 3 segments of your 9255 IP Address must match the first 3 segments of your gateway IP.
First 3 Segment of Gateway Address: 192.168.1.X
So your new IP Address for the 9255 should be: 192.168.1.26
New Network Information
9255 IP Address : 192.168.1.26
Gateway Address : 192.168.1.1
Local Computer IP Address : 192.168.1.122
Sub Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Port : 8080
7.) Press the rescan button to see if changes have been made.
8.) Double click on the device in the local device section and an IE web browser with the device login will pop up.

Using IP Service
IP Service is a feature which allows you to search for the device easily without having to remember long complicated IP addresses. Instead, all you need to know is the device name of your IP Power device and you can easily find it on IP
Service.
In the IP 9255 under the system configuration page, you can select the IP server that you would like the 9255 to go to. You can select from the Aviosys server or the Cloud Server. This function must be turned on to work.
* IP Power 9255 must be port forwarded for IP Service to work correctly.
1.) Open IP Edit and Select the server that your 9255 is designated to.
2.) Hit the green connect button on the top of IPEdit.
3.) Then type in the 9255 Name that you have selected for the device and press the search button.

Ref#92550216001
Ping Settings
The Auto-ping functionality allows the 9255 to check if the device have malfunctioned or needs to be restarted. If the device is no working correctly the
9255 Ping will activate the action that you have selected to reinstate the state of the device
Relay: A description of which on let to use Ping function
Enable: Disable or Enable ping settings
Ping IP Address: Specify the IP Address to Ping
Ping Failures: The number of ping failures before the Action is activated.
Action Delay (Seconds): After the Ping Failures has been reached, you can set the delay time (seconds) before the action is activated.
Some uses of this function would be for systems or computers that require a shut down time
Delay after action (Seconds): The number of seconds it takes the attached devices to startup. Once those devices start, the Startup Action will be activated to continue pinging or stop pinging.
Continue Ping: After start up Delay has been reached the start up action will either Continue Pinging or Stop Pinging
Action: When the number of Ping Failures have been reached. The device can be set to perform a Off, On, or Reset function.
- 19-
Ref#92550216001
Ping Type: Ping type sets a condition in the case where either all or 1 of the conditions are met the action will be activated.
For instance, if you set Ping Type to " AND ", all the Ping IP's must fail for the action to be activated. On the other hand if you set Ping Type to " OR " as long as one of the Ping IP fails it will cause the action to be activated.
Ping Time Interval (Seconds): The number of seconds between each ping
Ping Response Time (Milliseconds): The number of milliseconds the device will wait for a response from the pinged device if no ping is detected within this time it will be considered a ping failure.
Please view the example below for more details:
In the picture above:
1.) Power 1 Ping function is enabled for two websites
2.) The 9255 will ping the web address www.sample.com & www.google.com
3.) If there is a response within the Ping Response Time the 9255 will send another ping signal the set Ping Time Interval which is 3 seconds for this example.
4.) If the 9255 does not receive a response from the device it will constitute a
Ping Failure .
5.) After 3 consecutive failure the device will go to the Action Delay section. In this case the device will delay for 3 seconds.
6.) When action delay has been reached the Action will be set off. Here we have set the 9255 to Reset the device.
7.) Once the device has been reset the 9255 will go into Startup Delay mode.
In this case it is 3 seconds.
8.) After the startup delay mode has been reached the 9255 will check the
Startup Action whether to continue or stop pinging the device. Here we have it set to Continue.
- 20-
Ref#92550216001
9.) Then the process starts all over.
10.) Since the Ping Type is set to or if any of the Ping IP constitute a failure then the action will be committed. If the Ping Type was set to "AND" all conditions must be met for the action to be activated.
Setup
The setup page allows the user to configure the system settings of the 9255. This includes network information, IP Server, CNT, CGI commands, and the firmware version.

- 25-
Ref#92550216001
IP Server Configuration
The IP Server Configuration page is where the 9255 can be configured to connect to IP service.
IP service allows you to easily find your device off the web or off the google cloud server without the need to remember long IP Addresses. Instead you can find your device easily just by searching with the name of your device.
Time
The date and time settings allow the user to synchronize the 9255 with their local time or a NTP server.
NTP : Network Time Protocol can be entered into the 9255. Simply just enter the
IP Address of the NTP Server and hit the NTP button to synchronize. Then press save .
* For NTP to work correctly the DNS server must be configured correctly on your
Local Time: The local time gets the time of the PC that is currently being used.

Ref#92550216001
Logout
Click on the Logout link after you finish each session of using the IP Power 9255.
This will ensure that any other person that uses the device next will not be able to control the devices without logging in.
6.) Controlling the Device
CGI HTTP Commands
Http commands allow you to control the device with commands. The basic commands are provided below.
There are two ways to input http commands with authorization required
1. Password in http:
http://login:password@ipaddrss:port/set.cmd?cmd=command
2. Password not in http:
http://ipaddrss:port/set.cmd?user=login+pass=password+cmd=co mmand
Note: If you use the password not in http: command you will need to enter it when the browser asks for the password.
a.) Set Power Command
The Set Power command allows you to control the devices on/off through the http commands. With this command you can integrate can integrate the 9255 with any other system.
Outlet
Output 1
Power On
61 = 1
Power Off
61 = 0
Ex. For Single Port Control On http://192.168.1.3/set.cmd?cmd=setpower+p61=1
Output: P61=1
Ex. For Single Port Control Off http://192.168.1.3/set.cmd?cmd=setpower+p61=0
