SetActivePointers

Use SetActivePointers to make inactive access point segments active, but only immediately before rebooting. The variable’s format is:

File>sdvars set setactivepointers <nonebootdataboth>

The default value is “none.” Setting the value to “boot” or “data” affects only the given segment. Setting the value to “both” changes both segments. When the NextPowerUpTime variable counts down to zero, this field is checked to see if any inactive segments should be made active. This value resets to its default of “none” whenever the access point reboots.

NextPowerUpTime

NextPowerUpTime is a relative time at which to reboot the access point. The variable’s format is:

File>sdvars set nextpoweruptime <dd:hh:mm:ss>

The value of this variable is how long into the future the access point should reboot itself. If you do not want to reboot the access point after setting this variable, you can set this variable to zero.

As long as the NextPowerUpTime variable has not counted to zero on its own, the access point does not reboot. When the timer does count down to zero, it checks the value of the SetActivePointers variable, takes the appropriate action as described above, and then reboots the access point.
