Intelligent Power Module (IPM) - 110vAC model The Intelligent Power Module houses an el ectronic relay that will switch power to your computer, or any AC powered device, on and off. The module is activated (powered ON) via a signal from the Power On/Off +Aux control unit. Compare your module now to the illustration below and familiarize yourself wi[...]

Power On/Off +Aux Control Unit The desktop portion of Rem ote Power On/Off is t he Power On/Off +Aux control unit. Thi s unit moni tors the telephone line for RING, OFF-HOOK, and ON-HOOK conditions and signals the IPM to power the computer and peripherals on and off accordingly. TM O N /O FF S TA T US ON/OFF Master Power Switch - thi s square mom e[...]

L INE port - the incomi ng telephone line, from the wall-jack, connects to t his RJ11 port. M ODEM port - a telephone cable connects out from t his RJ11 port to the m odem' s line-in port. . A UX port - a facsimil e machine, answering m achine, or other device sharing t he same phone line connects t o this RJ11 port. IPM P ORT - the signal cab[...]

A sample session, Power-ON Mode: 1 The user makes a m odem call to t he phone number of the line attached t o the Power On/Off +Aux control unit. 2 The Power On/Off +Aux unit detects the i ncoming RINGs and counts t hem. After the first ring, the Power On/Off +Aux signals the IPM to power-ON the host PC and peripherals. 3 The line continues to ring[...]

Installation This section covers the in itial installation and testing o f the Power On/Off +Aux control unit and the Inte lligent Power Module (110vAC version). For additional i nstallation i nformation rega rding the Windows 95/98/M E and Windows NT/2000/XP ShutDown/ RE BOOT versions refer to Appendix B and Appendix C respectively. For the 220VAC[...]

NOTE: UPS users must attach the wal l-mount power suppl y to a second backed-up outlet provided on t he back of the battery back-up. If not, a power outage will result in the PC power ing off because the IPM w ill switch off if the Power On/Off +Aux unit looses power.

Operating Modes and Options Remote Power On/Off offers three exclusive Operating Modes with several selectable op tions for each m ode. Operating modes and options are determined by the Power On/Off +Aux control unit's DIP-switch settings. The two common Operating Modes are the Power-ON Mode (next page) and the RE BOOT Mode (begins page 20). T[...]

Power-ON Mode The default operating mode for the Remote Power On/Off system is the Power-ON Mode . This mode all ows a PC and peripherals to be turned-ON by an incomi ng telephone call and autom aticall y turned-OFF after the call i s complet ed. In this mode, the Power On/Off +Aux control unit monitors the telephone line for th ree conditions know[...]

Note: These Power-OFF Delay Time settings are usef ul to support post-connection operations, such as host so ftware "Call-Back" services. The recommended selection for this option is two minutes. This will allow time for a re-dial in cases where the firs t connect fails (usually because the hos t PC takes too long to fully bootup), as wel[...]

RE BOOT Mode The second operating mode is the RE BOOT Mode. This m ode is used to rem otely reboot a device by temporari ly interrupti ng its power source. The RE BOOT Mode provides a full col dboot, practical for resetting remo te network equipm ent, comm unications or fax servers, individual PCs, or any di stributed device in a lock-up or error s[...]

No Answer RE BOOT With the No Answer RE BOOT method, the Power On/Off +Aux control unit will count incom ing RINGs and only initiate a reboot when a selected Ring-Count occurs and the call is not answered . If the call is answered (off-hook is detected) at anytime, ei ther before or after the selected Ring-C ount, the reboot is canceled. The minim [...]

This On-Hook RE BOOT m ethod does not require any changes to t he host PC configuration (the m odem can answer on any ring number desired). For exam ple, the system will operate as follows (Ring-Count set to 8): A call placed to the host PC is answ ered, the modem connection is made, and the session is successful. When finished, the caller disconne[...]

Off-Hook (busy) RE BOOT Option The one condition that can block you fro m initiating an im mediate reboot with Remote Power On/Off is an endless busied-out line. If the Power On/Off +Aux unit is on the same line as the host modem, as is generally intended, an d the modem refuses to hang-up, the line will rem ain constantly 'busy' and rem [...]

Infinite-On/Off Mode The Power-ON Mode allows a device to be turned on, rem ain on fo r the duration of the call, b ut always automatically turned back off up to 1 hour after the call is ended. On t he other hand, the RE BOOT Mode all ows a device to be powered off, but only tem porarily; power switches back on autom atically aft er 30 seconds. Alt[...]

DIP Switch Configuration The following outlines th e DIP switch positions for the Infin ite-On/Off Mode. When the Infin ite-On/Off option is enabled, the 15 Ring Turn-OFF and +Aux Feat ure must also be enable d. Power can then be switched ON by 1, 5, or 10 RINGs and switched OFF with 15 RINGs. In all cases, th e unit must first be 'prim ed&apo[...]

+Aux Feature The +Aux feature allows a single tel ephone line to be shared by a m odem, the Power On/Off +Aux syst em, and one other t elephone device, such as a facsimile machin e or answering m achine - wh ich is attached to the A UX port. This feature also provides (with or wit hout an auxiliary device attached) a uniqu e level of security for t[...]

Sharing a Single Phone Line The Power On/Off +Aux control unit, usi ng relays, achieves li ne-sharing by controlli ng when the L INE port is cont inuous to the M ODEM and A UX ports. With the +Aux Feature enabled, all normal or routine incoming cal ls are ignored (with respect to power control) and e ffectively routed to only the A UX device. To re[...]

Modem Priority Option The +Aux Feature has been designed to optionall y allow priority to be given to the modem whenever the PC is full y booted and ready to answer calls. It al lows you to choos e whether or not the modem should be disguised when the system is already ON and fully booted. If the system is off, the two-call method m u st always be [...]
