6.4. The Default Command

The Default Command (/D) sets plugs to their default On/Off

status. The default status is set using the Plug Parameters menus

described in Section 5.5. To set plugs to defaults, type /D and

press [Enter].

Note:

·

When User Mode is active, this command will only

be applied to the plug owned by the User's

password. The command will not be applied to a

plug that is owned by another User Password.

·

When the System Mode is active, this command

will be applied to both plugs.

·

This command will always be applied to all owned

plugs. It cannot be directed only to a specific plug.

6.5. The Automated Mode

The Automated Mode allows the NPS-2HD to perform

On/Off/Boot/Default/Exit commands, without displaying menus

or generating response messages. Automated Mode is designed

to allow the NPS to be controlled by a computer (or another

automatic system) which can generate commands to control

power switching functions without human intervention.
When the Automated Mode is enabled, the /ON, /OFF, /BOOT,

/D and /X commands are executed without a "Sure?"

confirmation prompt and without command response messages;

the only reply to these commands is the "NPS>" prompt, which is

displayed when the command is complete.

Note: When Automated Mode is enabled, all NPS

password security functions are disabled, and users

are able to access System Level command functions

(including the configuration menus), and control

both plugs without entering a password. If you need

to enable the Automated Mode, but want to restrict

network access to NPS configuration menus, it is

recommended to enable and configure the IP

Security Function as described in Section 5.6.1.
