SMART IP EXTENDER

After reading all entries, Smart 16 IP displays them with their time, sensor and description in accordance with the filter settings. You have the choice between several pre-settings (i.e. last day, last week) or an exact declaration of the start and the end date.

Once you change the filter settings, click `Update' to update the shown entries. If the Get sensor names box is checked, all sensor IDs are shown with their respective names.

The time shown in the log entries is the SEL time, meaning it is independent of the system time. The SEL time is shown at the top of the log table. Click Clear Event Log to delete all entries in the SEL repository.

40.Power Control

The appearance of the power control window depends on the power control option connected to IP Extender and on the currently activated setting (discussed on page 44). There are 2 options available: Power control disabled and external power.

External power

If the external power option is enabled it will look like Figure 17.

Figure 17 External power control

The upper half is used to switch the power for the KVM port currently active. Use the KVM settings – see page 30 - to assign a port of the external power control to a KVM port. If no assignment exists, the option is disabled.

The lower half offers controls for switching each port of the external power control directly. Select the appropriate port and decide whether to power it off or on.

The Remote reset and power button effects are as follows:

Reset - This is similar to pressing the reset button directly on the remote system. Pressing the reset button will result in a cold start of the system. This might damage open files and the file system itself.
