When you have finished making your configuration settings, click Save .
Power Off Delay Sets the amount of time the PN5212 / PN5320 waits after the
Power Button is clicked (see
Manual Power Management ,
page 25), before it turns off the computer attached to the
corresponding outlet.
For the
System after AC Back option (see below), after the
delay time expires, the PN5212 / PN5320 waits another fifteen
seconds, then shuts the computer down.
The default delay time is 15 seconds. The maximum delay time
is 999 seconds.
Shutdown Method There are three choices for the Shutdown method. Drop down
the list to select a choice. The meaning of each choice is
described, below:
Wake on LAN: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart option. If
this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the PN5212 /
PN5320 first sends a message to the computer telling it to
prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the amount time set
in the
Power Off Delay field to give the OS time to close down
before the computer is powered down to standby mode.
Likewise, when the Outlet is turned On, the PN5212 / PN5320
waits for the amount time set in the
Power On Delay field,
then sends an Ethernet message to the computer connected
to the Outlet telling the computer to turn itself On.
Note: For Safe Shutdown and Restart, the computer must be running
Windows (Windows 98 or higher), and the Safe Shutdown program
(available by download from our website), must be installed and
running on the computer.
System after AC Back: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart
option. If this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the
PN5212 / PN5320 first sends a message to the computer
telling it to prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the
amount time set in the
Power Off Delay field to give the OS
time to close down before the computer is powered down.
When the Outlet is turned On, the PN5212 / PN5320 waits for
the amount time set in the
Power On Delay field, then sends
power to the server. When the server receives the power, it
turns itself on.
Note: For Safe Shutdown and Reboot, the computer must be running
Windows (Windows 98 or higher), and the Safe Shutdown program
(available by download from our website), must be installed and
running on the computer.
Kill the Power: If this option is selected, the PN5212 / PN5320
waits for the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field, and
then turns the Outlet's power Off. Turning the power off
performs a cold (non-safe) shutdown.
MAC Address In order to use either of the Safe Shutdown and Restart
methods the MAC address of the computer connected to the
outlet must be filled in here.
Server Diagnosis These fields are used to set up an ICMP ping command to
check if the outlet is functioning properly. See
Server
Diagnosis , page 31 for a further explanation.
