Western Telematic IPS-15 - Manual (Page 30)

· Command Echo: Enables/Disables command echo. When
enabled, ASCII commands sent via the Text Interface to the IPS
will be echoed back, allowing keystrokes to be displayed. Note
that this feature applies primarily to the text interface, and has no
visible effect on the Web Browser Interface. (Default = On.)
· Inactivity Timeout: Determines how long the IPS will wait for
additional commands during periods of inactivity. When the
Timeout Period elapses, the user will be disconnected from the
IPS command mode. (Default = 2 Minutes.)
· Command Confirm: When enabled, the IPS will display a
confirmation prompt before switching, reboot, and default
commands when the unit is controlled via Text Interface. When
disabled, the prompt will be suppressed. (Default = On/Enabled.)
· Automated Mode: When enabled, the IPS will execute On, Off,
Boot, and exit commands without displaying a confirmation
prompt, status screen or confirmation messages. This allows the
IPS to be controlled by a device that generates commands to
control switching without human intervention. For more
information, please refer to Section 6.5. (Default = Off.)
Note: When this option is enabled, security functions
are suppressed, and users are able to access System
Level menus and control plugs without entering a
password. If security is a concern and the Automated
Mode is required, it is recommended to use the IP
Security feature (Section 5.3.3.1) to restrict access.
· Button Mode: Enables and configures the manual plug control
button. (Default = "One".)
m None: Disables the manual plug button.
m One: The manual plug button will only control the outlet on
the Master Unit; outlets on Satellite Units will not be effected
by the manual plug button.
m All: The manual plug button will control the outlet on the
Master Unit and all connected Satellite Units.
· Default Parameters: Resets the IPS to default parameters. All
menu selected parameters, including port names and passwords,
will be cleared. This option is only available via Text Interface.
Note: If the this function is invoked via Network Port,
the IP Address is not reset. If this function is invoked
via Console Port or Modem Port, the IP Address will
be reset.
