The Remote Power Manager (RPM) can be Daisy Chained up to a maximum of sixteen 
units.  Each RPM in the Daisy Chain must have its own unique identification number.  
The default ID# is “0“.   The first RPM (Master RPM) must have the SNMP-32 Card 
install and must be configured before you can begin Daisy Chaining any additional 
RPMs.  Only the first RPM requires the SNMP-32 Card.  Follow the procedure below to 
Daisy Chain the RPMs: 
 
Figure 1 - First RPM 

 
1.  Make sure that the Terminator is plugged into the first RPM's iLink port (see Figure 

1). 

2.  Plug the first RPM's power cord into utility power. 
3.  Turn the master power switch on. 
4.  Configure the RPM (see the SNMP-32 User’s Manual). 
5.  Configure the first RPM's ID number (see the SNMP-32 User’s Manual). 
NOTE:  Each RPM must have it's own unique ID#, the default ID# is "0". 
 
Figure 2 - First and second RPM 

 
6.  Make sure that the second RPM has the Terminator plugged into the iLink port 

(see Figure 2). 

7.  Connect the first and second RPM together with the iLink cable. 
8.  Plug the second RPM's power cord into utility power. 
9.  Turn the master power switch on. 
10.  Configure the second RPM's ID number (see the SNMP-32 User’s Manual). 
NOTE:  Each RPM must have it's own unique ID#, the default ID# is "0". 
11.  If there are only two RPMs required for this application, then this completes the 

Daisy Chaining procedure and the RPMs are ready for use. 

12. If your application requires additional RPMs, please continue with the Daisy 

Chaining procedure.
