DUAL-PORT NETWORK POWER SWITCH

7.Disconnect Timeout: Determines how long the Dual-Port Network Power Switch will wait for additional commands. Type 7, press [Enter], and follow the instructions in the submenu. (Default determined by option switch 4; Factory setting = 2 Min)

8.Command Confirmation: When enabled, the Dual-Port Network Power Switch will display a “Sure?” prompt before completing the /T, /X, /R, /BOOT, /ON, /OFF, /D, and “A” commands, and will also display the System Status screen after commands are successfully completed. When disabled, the “Sure?” prompt is suppressed, and the Status screen is not sent when commands are complete. (Default = On.)

9.Automated Mode: When enabled, the Dual-Port Network Power Switch will execute the /ON, /OFF, /BOOT, /D, and /X commands without displaying the confirmation prompt, status screen, or confirmation messages. This allows the Switch to be controlled by a device that generates commands to control power switching without human interaction. For more information, please refer to Section 5.5. (Default = Off.)

NOTE

When this option is enabled, Dual-Port Network Power Switch password security functions are disabled, and users are able to access system level menus and control both plugs without entering a password.

10.Button Mode: Enables/disables the manual plug control buttons on the Dual- Port Network Power Switch front panel. When enabled, the Switch’s two switched plugs can be toggled on and off by pressing and holding the manual control button for approximately one second. When disabled, the manual control buttons will have no effect. (Default = On.)

A.Default Parameters: Resets the Dual-Port Network Power Switch to the default values specified by the option switches. In addition, all menu-selected parameters, including port names and passwords, will be lost. If command confirmation is disabled, the “Sure?” prompt will not be sent.

NOTE

If the Default Parameters function is invoked via the network port, the IP address is not reset. If this function is invoked via the console port or modem port, the IP address will be reset.

After defining the general parameters, press [Esc] to exit from the General Parameters menu.
