NETIO PowerCable 101S - Wi-Fi Remote Power Switches - IEC320 Plug and Socket

Features of the NETIO PowerCable 101X - IEC-320 sockets

ZCS (Zero Current Switching)
ZCS (Zero Current Switching) function ensures that the relay contact is closed at the moment of zero voltage and opened at the moment when zero current flows through it.
Closing and opening at these exact moments has a number of advantages:
• The negative effects of inrush current on the lifetime of the relay in the NETIO device are significantly reduced.
• Reduced probability of a circuit breaker tripping in the circuit branch where the appliance with a high inrush current is connected.
• Significantly improved lifetime of switching supplies in appliances that are connected to the socket (especially in case of frequent switching on and off).
• Significantly reduced electromagnetic interference caused by repeated switching on and off.
Zero current switching (ZCS) significantly improves the lifetime of the PowerCable and the connected end devices. This function is particularly important in case of frequent switching.

IOC (Independent Output Control)
Independent Output Control function of the PowerCable uses an independent system that ensures a stable operation of the output even if the main system is being restarted, updated, or is booting.
Thanks to IOC, the controlled output can power devices that, for technical reasons, must be powered without interruption (such as servers). The output control is completely independent from the WiFi or LAN communication subsystem.

PowerUp State
The PowerUp State parameter (sometimes also called Cold start) defines the behavior of the 110/230V power output during the first milliseconds to seconds after powering up the device, before the LAN/WiFi communication with a master system is established.
For some applications, it is important to set the correct state of a power output immediately after power is turned on (or restored). With servers in particular it is important to avoid undesired momentary switching.
Possible settings for PowerCable
• On
• Off
• LAST state restores the last state before the power was disconnected


Quick WiFi connection setup (AP mode installation)
• NETIO PowerCable creates a WiFi network that you connect to with your PC or mobile phone.
• It then scans for WiFi networks in the vicinity, and lets you choose from a list and type the password.
• NETIO PowerCable then confirms the connection to the network and displays the assigned IP address.
• NETIO PowerCable devices can be discovered in the LAN using the NETIO Discover tool.

NFC Preconfig
PowerCable can be pre-configured using NFC even without being switched on.
This require a mobile phone with Android system, NFC function and mobile application "NETIO Mobile 2“.
The settings configured over NFC will be applied when the device is powered on.
In this way, it is possible to configure or show:
• Set SSID and password for connecting to WiFi
• Show assigned IP address in DHCP mode
For authentication, the existing password to the web administration “admin” account is used (default “admin” / “admin”).
