2.4 Automatic Power Control Function

This function is supported by all models except PRIMEPOWER1. SMC provides the automatic power control function for the PRIMEPOWER800/1000/2000 model group, the PRIMEPOWER900/1500/2500/HPC2500 model group, and the GP7000F model 1000/2000 group. Accordingly, use SMC for these model groups.

The automatic power control function sets the power on/off schedule of the main unit and automatically controls operation according to the schedule. Machine Administration provides two types of menu for automatic power control: the CUI menu and the GUI menu. The tables below show these two menus.

The automatic power control menus available depend on the main unit model to be monitored.
