Quick Start Guide
2. Test Switching Functions: You may wish to perform the following
tests in order to make certain that the RPS is responding to commands.
a) Reboot Outlet: If you are communicating with the unit via the Web
Browser Interface, select the button in the "Boot" column for Plug 1,
and then click on "Apply." If you are operating the unit via the Text
interface, type /BOOT 1 and press [Enter]. The status indicator
for Plug 1 should go off, pause for a moment, and then go back on,
indicating that the boot cycle has been successfully completed.
b) Switch Outlet Off: From the Web Browser Interface, select the
button in the "Off" column for Plug 1, and then click "Apply." From
the Text Interface, type /OFF 1 and press [Enter]. The status
indicator for Plug 1 should go "Off," indicating that the command
has been successfully completed. Leave Plug 1 in the Off state, and
then proceed to the next step.
c) Switch Outlet On: From the Web Browser Interface, select the
button in the "On" column for Plug 1, and then click "Apply."
From the Text Interface, type /ON 1 and press [Enter]. The status
indicator for Plug 1 should then go back On, indicating that the
command has been successfully completed.
3. Log Out: When you have finished communicating with the unit it is
important to always log off by issuing the appropriate RPS command,
rather than simply closing your Telnet or communications program.
When you log off using the proper RPS command, this ensures that the
unit has completely exited from command mode, and is not waiting for
the inactivity timeout to elapse before allowing additional connections.
a) Web Browser Interface: Click on the "Log Out" button.
b) Text Interface: Type
/X and press [Enter].
This completes the Quick Start Guide for the RPS Series Remote Power
