WebRelay Users Manual
Relay Description
This text is used to describe the function of the relay on the control page. This text will not appear if the
‘Display Relay Status’ is set to
No
, and ‘ON/OFF’ buttons are not displayed which allow relay control.
This field can be up to 20 characters in length.
The following settings are used to set up the way the relay status is displayed.
Note: Be aware that when the WebRelay is used for re-boot purposes, the relay status may or may not
be the same as the device status. When the WebRelay is used to assert the a reset signal on the
motherboard of a server, for example, the relay will be ‘OFF’ most of the time even though the server is
‘ON’ most of the time. The specific re-boot method used should be considered when assigning text and
color to the relay status.
