4.3 Sending a Reboot Command
The firmware supports the rebooting of the device by sending a “REBOOT” API command.
The command itself is “c=99” and can be transmitted using one of three API interfaces:
CGI , TCP and UDP as explained below.
CGI Interface
Type in the browsers URL filed the IP of the device followed by “/rc.cgi?c=99” and hit the enter
key to submit the command. The device will reboot immediately.
This command uses the HTTP web server port (default: 80) . Supply the correct port number if
you change this setting.
TCP Interface
Send the command “c=99” followed by a „CR“ (Carriage Return) character in a TCP packet to
the device. The device will reboot immediately.
This command uses the TCP command port which is disabled by default (default: 0).
Enable the command port first and send the packet to the port number you have set.
UDP Interface
Send the command “c=99” followed by a „CR“ (Carriage Return) character in a UDP packet to
the device. The device will reboot immediately.
This command uses the UDP command port which is disabled by default (default: 0).
Enable the command port first and send the packet to the port number you have set.
4.4 Power-cycling the device
To reboot the Exstreamer P5 the voltage on the power supply connector
E
has to drop for
approximately one second before coming up again.
