APC7953 Management

[Anonymous user]

I have a further question regarding the APC power bars model AP7953.

In order to ensure our kit doesn't come back on-line automatically we have set up coldstart delay to be never on the 20 bars that we have.

So following on from a power down all the sockets remain off.

Depending upon what is attached to each socket some have outlet power-on delay value set to immediate, others have it set to a timescale and others with no kit attached have it set to Never.

Once power is back up and stable for each power bar I would like send the control action On Delayed to all sockets. This will switch the relevant sockets back on accorrding to their delay.

Problem with this is we don't have Infrastructure Central (budget wouldn't allow) so this involves logging onto each power bar individually using the web address and issuing the command via the control menu in Device Manager.

Is there any way of automating this process. e.g. Write a script to send the command "All sockets on - delayed" to each power bar.
