Western Telematic NPS-2HD - Manual (Page 40)

6.7. Manual Operation
In addition to the command driven functions, the NPS's two
switched plugs can also be toggled On and Off manually. To
manually toggle a plug On or Off, press the appropriate Manual
Control Button, and hold it down for approximately one second;
the corresponding plug will be toggled On or Off. Note that if
desired, the Manual Control Buttons can also be disabled via the
General Parameters menu as described in Section 5.4.
6.8. Operating Tips
When connecting to the NPS-2HD via network, modem or
console port, the following factors should be kept in mind:
1. One Connection at a Time: Only one port can access the
command mode at a time. Therefore, it is recommended
that users should always disconnect using the /X command
when finished communicating with the unit. When a
command port is busy, the NPS-2HD will react as follows:
a) Network Port Busy: If a second user attempts to
connect via the Modem Port, the NPS will send a busy
message. If a second user attempts to connect via the
Console Port, the port will not wake.
b) Modem Port Busy: If a second user attempts to
connect via the Network Port, the connection will be
refused. If a second user attempts to connect via the
Console Port, the port will not wake.
c) Console Port Busy: If a second user attempts to
connect via the Network Port, the connection will be
refused. If a second user attempts to connect via the
Modem Port, the Console Port will disconnect and the
Modem Port will be granted access; the Modem Port
has priority over the Console Port.
2. Ping Packet Size: The NPS will not accept Ping Packets
larger than approximately 1000 bytes.
If you have any questions regarding configuration or operation of
the NPS, please contact WTI Technical Support as described in
