13. AUTO RESET 

 

The auto reset function enables the HomePNA Switch to automatically 

reset the switch & ports or the whole unit periodically. By default, Auto Reset 
function is off, to enable Auto Reset simple issue the “RSP” command on the 
ICD command interface.   

 

Example 1: 
Set unit to auto reset switch and ports every 8 hours 

RSP S,8 

 

Example 2: 
Set unit to reboot unit every 8 hours 

RSP U,8 

 

Example 3: 
Turn off Auto Reset 

RSP F 

 

You may view the Auto Reset status in the Unit Information through the “U” 

command at ICD Command Interface. When the unit is restored to its factory 
defaults using the RSW command, Auto Reset is off. 

 
 

14. HIGH/LOW POWER MODE   

 
The HomePNA Switch contains two power modes for transmission:  

low power, and high power. This setting was integrated within the switch for 
installations that contain some long distance HomePNA port installations of 
500 ft and 1000 ft. Power modes are adjustable on a per port basis, but with 
the following side effects: 

 

I. 

High Power Mode will cause much more Cross Talk within the line of 
the port modified. 

 

II. 

Data Rate may be slightly affected by raising the power mode, resulting 
in slower transmission. 

 

The command to change the power mode must be obtained from your 

vendor.
