In addition to performing reboot cycles in response to commands, the MPC can also be configured to automatically reboot outlets when an attached device does not respond to a Ping command (Ping-No-Answer Reboot) or according to a user defined schedule (Scheduled Reboot.)

Ping-No-Answer Reboot: When the Ping-No-Answer feature is enabled, the MPC will Ping a user selected IP address at regular intervals. If the IP address does not respond to the Ping command, the MPC will reboot one or more user selected outlet(s). Typically, this feature is used to reboot devices when they cease to respond to the Ping command.

Scheduled Reboot: A scheduled reboot is used to initiate a reboot cycle at a user selected time and day of the week. When properly configured and enabled, the MPC will reboot one or more outlets on a daily or weekly basis. The Scheduled Reboot feature can also be used to switch outlet(s) Off at a user selected time, and then switch them back On again at a later, user selected time.

This section describes the procedure for configuring and enabling Ping-No-Answer Reboots and Scheduled Reboots.

Note: When defining parameters via the Text Interface, make certain to press the [Esc] key to completely exit from the configuration menus and save newly defined parameters. When parameters are defined via the Text Interface, newly defined parameters will not be saved until the "Saving Configuration" message is displayed.
