Operation

6.4. The Default Command

The Default Command (/D) sets plugs to their default On/Off status. The default status is set using the Plug Parameters menus described in Section 5.5. To set plugs to defaults, type /D and press [Enter].

Note:

￿When User Mode is active, this command will only be applied to the plug owned by the User's password. The command will not be applied to a plug that is owned by another User Password.

￿When the System Mode is active, this command will be applied to both plugs.

￿This command will always be applied to all owned plugs. It cannot be directed only to a specific plug.

6.5.The Automated Mode

The Automated Mode allows the NPS-2HD to perform On/Off/Boot/Default/Exit commands, without displaying menus or generating response messages. Automated Mode is designed to allow the NPS to be controlled by a computer (or another automatic system) which can generate commands to control power switching functions without human intervention.

When the Automated Mode is enabled, the /ON, /OFF, /BOOT, /D and /X commands are executed without a "Sure?" confirmation prompt and without command response messages; the only reply to these commands is the "NPS>" prompt, which is displayed when the command is complete.

Note: When Automated Mode is enabled, all NPS

 

password security functions are disabled, and users

 

are able to access System Level command functions

 

(including the configuration menus), and control

 

both plugs without entering a password. If you need

 

to enable the Automated Mode, but want to restrict

 

network access to NPS configuration menus, it is

 

recommended to enable and configure the IP

 

Security Function as described in Section 5.6.1.
