PowerIP (for Aviosys IP Power and Sonoff Tasmota)

* Please contact me if you have any issues rather than leaving a negative review *

This software is for the IP Power 9258 / 9222 / 9223 / 9255 / 9212 / 9280 / 9820 / 9858 / 9216 range of Aviosys network controlled power strips (PDU's).  Since version 12.0, it also now supports Sonoff devices running Tasmota firmware.

You can power on or off an unlimited number of devices remotely from anywhere in the world using your Android mobile or smart watch, schedule events for the devices to turn themselves on and off, or power cycle a device such as a router or server to reboot it.

-	remote control heating systems
-	using your Aviosys power strip as a remotely programmable time switch
-	home automation applications
-	power off your devices to save energy rather than leaving them on standby

-	integration with other apps using Android intents
 
It's easy to set up. Go to the server configuration menu and enter the user name, password, server address (an IP address or domain) and port for each of the power switches. For the server address, you should not include "http", but instead just the address e.g. myserver.myhouse.com or 192.168.1.2.
 
Then enable/disable the security options for each power strip. If the "protected" checkbox is enabled, then any output names which are enclosed in round brackets e.g. "(FTP server)" will be disabled from being switched.
 
In the settings menu, a preferences password can be applied by selecting the "password required" checkbox and entering a password. The default password is "admin".
 
Once set up, the status and names of each output will be shown as on or off. To toggle each output, just press the appropriate output. Swipe left/right to move to other power switches, or up/down to pick from a list. Long press an output to power cycle it (if supported).
 
If supported by your switch, you can also get/set schedules for the outputs to turn on/off automatically.
