– Turn a Port Off
The off command is used to turn off a port or group of ports.
PDU 4/4> help off
Syntax: off <b> <p>
Description: Turn an outlet or group of outlets off.
<b> = (box # | all) <d> = disable <dly> = delay <e> = enable
<n> = name <t> = time <p> = (port # | name | all)
Ports and Boxes may be referred to by all, name (implying a group) or number.
Ranges of ports may be specified as 1-4 = 1,2,3,4. All may also be used.
Any port may be referred to by either Port Numbers or Port Names. All ports with identical port names will be turned off
together (as a Port Group)
 The keyword “all” is a valid argument
Examples:

Set Box 1, Ports 5 & 7 OFF off 1 5,7

Set all boxes, ports 1 through 5, OFF off 0 1-5

If Ports 1, 4 and 8 are named SUN in Box #2, then: off 2 SUN
set ports 1, 4 & 8 OFF in Box #2.
on
– Turn a Port On
The on command is used to turn on a port or group of ports. If multiple ports are turned on in one command, the turn
on times are staggered by an
“rbdelay” (reboot delay) value to each port.
PDU 4/4> help on
Syntax: on <b> <p>
Description: Turn an outlet or group of outlets on.
<b> = (box # | all) <d> = disable <dly> = delay <e> = enable
<n> = name <t> = time <p> = (port # | name | all)
Ports and Boxes may be referred to by all, name (implying a group) or number.
Ranges of ports may be specified as 1-4 = 1,2,3,4. All may also be used.
Any port may be referred to by either Port Numbers or Port Names. All ports with identical port names will be turned on
together (as a Port Group)
 The keyword “all” is a valid argument
Examples:

Set Box 1, Ports 5 & 7 ON on 1 5,7

Set all boxes, ports 1 through 5, ON on 0 1-5

If Ports 1, 4 and 8 are named SUN in Box #2, then: on 2 SUN
sets ports 1, 4 & 8 ON in Box #2.
Note: In order to limit current surges, each port is turned on at “rbdelay” intervals. The first port in a
sequence will turn on immediately and the next will wait until its “rbdelay” has expired before turning
on, etc.
