Important Note: Big Dog PDU FW v1.99 is known to break feedback communication when using any version of this driver. It’s required to update Big Dog PDUs to v2.04 for full control and feedback when using driver v1.2.

Configuration:

• IP Address: The IP Address of the device. This is easily found on the MavBase website after registering the product.

• Username: Username credentials for the unit. Default - admin

• Password: Password credentials for the unit. Default - admin (can be changed at deviceip/outletSetup

• Outlet Names: These are the names of the outlets, to be used by Integration Designer to name functions/variables for you to more easily program using this driver. These are also passed to the processor in the variables Name(From Config).

• Outlet Count: This is a Read-Only property(in ID11.3) which shows how many outlets you have added to the system for this device. In ID11.2 or older, please do not change this property, or your driver may not function properly. This property auto-calculates as you add or remove sources from the driver.

Driver Notes:

• If you are looking to send multiple commands in rapid succession it is recommended to use a slight delay of 0.3 seconds. A good example of this would be an All on or All off type macro to make many outlets turn on or off.

• Using the % character in the password locks you out. Stick to regular characters when setting the webgui password.
