6.2.2.1. Applying Commands to Several Outlets - Text Interface
As described below, switching and reboot commands can be applied to only one Switched AC Outlet, or to several outlets.
Note: When switching and reboot operations are initiated, Boot/ Sequence Delay times will be applied as described in Section 5.5.5.1.
1.Several Outlets: To apply a command to several plugs, enter the numbers or names for the outlets, separated by a "plus sign" (+). For example to switch outlets 1, 3, and 4 Off, enter the following:
/OFF 1+3+4 [Enter]
2.Series of Outlets: To apply a command to a series of outlets, enter the number for the outlets that mark the beginning and end of the series, separated by a colon. For example, to switch outlets 1 through 3 On, enter the following:
/ON 1:3 [Enter]
4.All Outlets: To apply a command to all outlets, enter an asterisk in place of the name or number. For example, to Boot all outlets, enter the following:
/BO * [Enter]
6.2.3.Connections Between RS232 Ports - Text Interface
Two different types of connections can be made between
•Resident Connections: Your resident port issues a /C command to connect to a second port. For example, Port 4 issues the /C command to connect to Port 5.
•Third Party Connections: (Supervisor Mode Only) Your resident port issues a /C command to create a connection between two other ports. For example, Port 1 is your resident port, and Port 1 issues a command to connect Port 2 to Port 3.
Notes:
•Third Party Connections can only be initiated when the Supervisor Mode is active.
•The Serial RS232 Ports cannot employ the /C command to initiate a connection to the Network Port.
•You can only create connections to the ports that are allowed by the password entered at login.
•The Web Browser Interface cannot be used to initiate port connections. The Text Interface is always used to create connections between ports.
