DETAILED OPERATION AND CONFIGURATION

________________________________________________________________________________

If the status menu fails to appear, ensure the correct cables and adapters are being used and that they are connected properly. Also, verify the serial communication parameters are correctly configured.

Controlling Receptacles

To set or change the status of receptacles,

 

enter one of the following commands: ON

 

n, OFF n, REBOOT n, where “n” is the

 

outlet number you want to command.

 

Entering an outlet number of “0” sends the

 

command to all outlets.

Example:

To turn “On” Outlet 3, type ON 3 from the

 

RPC prompt (RPC >). The RPC responds:

 

Turn On Outlet 3 (Y/N)?

 

Responding “Y” for yes turns “On” Outlet 3.

 

Observe that the status of Outlet 3 has

 

changed to On in the status menu:
