6. Operation

As discussed in Section 5, the IPS offers two separate command interfaces; the Web Browser Interface and the Text Interface. Note that Both interfaces offer essentially the same command options and features, and that parameters defined via the Web Interface will also apply when communicating via the Text Interface (and vice versa.)

6.1. Operation via the Web Browser Interface

When using the Web Browser Interface, all switching commands are invoked via the Plug Status Screen, which also displays the status of the IPS’s switched outlets.

6.1.1.The Plug Status Screen - Web Browser Interface

When you login to the IPS command mode using the Web Browser Interface, the first screen that is displayed is the Plug Status Screen (or "Switch Panel".) The Plug Status Screen (Figure 6.1) lists the current On/Off status of the IPS’s Switched Outlets and provides a series of "radio buttons" which are used to control On/Off/Boot switching of the outlets.

To invoke On/Off/Boot commands or view plug status via the Web Browser Interface, proceed as follows:

1.Access the IPS Command Mode as described in Section 5.2.1.

2.When the Plug Status Screen (Figure 6.1) appears, note that the screen includes a status field and switching and reboot controls for each of the IPS’s Switched AC Outlets.

Notes:

When switching and reboot operations are initiated, Boot/Sequence Delay times will be applied as described in Section 5.3.3.2.

Users who login to command mode using a Plug password, will only be allowed to issue commands to the plugs allowed by that password.
