AUTO – REBOOT USING PING OPTION — NETWORK
Tier 3 Version Only !
|
Click to Enlarge |
|
The NETWORK configuration option allows you to configure AUTO-REBOOT based on a network PING test. This is available on the Tier 3 Version of the RPS-SP4L unit only.
Detect: This check box will allow you to enable the ping test for the configured IP address.
Equipment Network Address: The IP Address of the device you want to monitor. This usually is the device plugged into this specific power port of the remote power switch.
PING Interval Time: The interval time to send a ping to the connected equipment.
Detect Times: When the Ping fails this number of times, a warning message will be sent by email.
Reboot: If checked, when the Ping test fails greater than the set number of times, the equipment will be
rebooted ( Power Off/On ).
Re-detect Time: When the equipment is rebooted, this is the time delay before restarting the Ping Test to
allow the device to fully reboot.
NOTE: The IP Addresses used in the Equipment Network Address must be unique. Do not use the same IP Address on different ports. Use an extension cord plugged into a router and a modem if you need to reboot both items when failure occurs. The individual port limit is 6 amps.

Power Control by Temperature
|
Click to Enlarge |
Power Shutdown: When the temperature of the RPS-SPL4 is over this set temperature and then exceeds the ‘Continuous Time’ given in the next configuration point, the power to this port will be shut OFF automatically.
Continuous Time: When the temperature is over the Power Shutdown Temperature above for this amount of time the power will be shut OFF.
Power Start: If the power has been shut off because of the two conditions above being met, the unit will turn the power ON when the temperature falls below this set temperature.
PLEASE NOTE: This is the temperature of the actual RPS-SPL4 unit as shown on the main menu screen in the above image only. This option can be used to shut down attached equipment to allow cooling of the environment or the actual RPS-SPL4 unit due to excess current draw or other reason. The temperature entered here is approx and we assume no liablity for failure to perform as desired. Use this option at your own
risk. It is recommended that you run your own testing to determine suitablity for your purpose.
