SERVLINK™ POWER MANAGEMENT MODULE
5.4 Reset Options
When you select “Reset Options” from the Other menu, the dialog box shown in
Figure 5-7 appears.
Figure 5-7. The Reset (Reboot) Options dialog box.
Use this option if you have a Power Management Module controlling power to the
ServLINK itself. (If you don’t, this box is irrelevant.) This Module should be
attached to the ServLINK’s modem through the ServLINK’s Access Control Card,
as described in
Section 3.1 . The one and only function of this Module is to reboot
the ServLINK (by cutting power and then restoring it after a preset delay—see
Section 5.2 ) when it receives a call with the characteristics specified here.
Two of these characteristics are mutually interdependent—either they both have
to be enabled or both disabled:
• Click the “Enable Reboot When Less Than” box to trigger a reboot on a call
with just a few rings. The default value is fewer than 3 rings; available values are
3 to 9 rings. This is the preferred reboot method.
• Click the “Enable Reboot When More Than” box to trigger a reboot on a call
that rings many times—the default value is more than 6 rings; available values
are 5 to 14 rings. The ServLINK’s modem is set to answer calls on the fourth
ring; if the few-rings reboot doesn’t work, and the modem fails to answer,
letting the call ring for the number of times specified here should trigger a
reboot anyway.
This brings up an interesting feature: Even though pcANYWHERE hangs up
after the tenth ring, this option can be set to more than 10 rings. This allows
you to effectively disable the “reboot on many rings” option if you ever find
that badly mistaken or malicious people are dialing up the ServLINK, crashing
the modem, and then rebooting the ServLINK by calling back and letting it
ring.
