6. Operation
As discussed in Section 5, the IPS offers two separate command interfaces;
the Web Browser Interface and the Text Interface. Note that Both interfaces
offer essentially the same command options and features, and that parameters
defined via the Web Interface will also apply when communicating via the Text
Interface (and vice versa.)
6.1. Operation via the Web Browser Interface
When using the Web Browser Interface, all switching commands are invoked
via the Plug Status Screen, which also displays the status of the IPS’s
switched outlets.
6.1.1. The Plug Status Screen - Web Browser Interface
When you login to the IPS command mode using the Web Browser Interface,
the first screen that is displayed is the Plug Status Screen (or "Switch Panel".)
The Plug Status Screen (Figure 6.1) lists the current On/Off status of the IPS’s
Switched Outlets and provides a series of "radio buttons" which are used to
control On/Off/Boot switching of the outlets.
To invoke On/Off/Boot commands or view plug status via the Web Browser
Interface, proceed as follows:
1. Access the IPS Command Mode as described in Section 5.2.1.
2. When the Plug Status Screen (Figure 6.1) appears, note that the screen
includes a status field and On/Off/Boot controls for each of the IPS’s
Switched AC Outlets.
Notes:
• When Boot/On/Off operations are initiated, Boot/Sequence Delay
times will be applied as described in Section 5.3.3.2.
• Users who login to command mode using a Plug password, will
only be allowed to issue commands to the plugs allowed by that
password.
