Issue

My AP5610, AP5615, or AP5616 KVM Switch is not recognizing the attached Rack PDU for Power Management.

AP561X Digital IP KVM Switches support Rack PDU power integration for the ability to control outlets via the KVM interface. This allows the user to power on/off/reboot a device connected to the KVM if it becomes 'frozen' or warrants a control action. This functionality also allows the user to set and configure outlet delays and monitor current from a supported PDU.
