Note that when defining plug parameters via the Web Browser Interface, the
desired plug is selected using the dropdown menu at the top of the page. When
defining plug parameters via the Text Interface, the plug is selected using the
/P n command (where n is the number or name of the desired plug.)
The Plug Parameters Menu allows the following parameters to be defined:
Plug Name: Assigns a name to the plug. (Up to 32 Characters,
Default = undefined.)
Note: The Plug name cannot begin with a number, the underscore
character (_), the slash character (/) or an asterisk (*).
Plug Password: Assigns a password to the corresponding plug. When
this password is entered at login, the user will be able to issue commands
to this plug, and any other RPS plug that shares the same password as
described in Section 5.3.3.1. Note that this password does not allow
access to configuration functions. (16 Characters,
Default = undefined.)
Note: Passwords cannot contain nonprintable characters, spaces,
colons (:), plus signs (+) or quotation marks.
Boot/Seq. Delay: When more than one plug is switched On/Off or
a reboot cycle is initiated, the Boot/Sequence delay determines how
much time will elapse between switching operations, as described in
Section 5.3.3.2. (Default = 0.5 Seconds.)
Power Up Default: Determines how this plug will react when the
Default command (/D) is invoked, or after power to the unit has been
interrupted and restored. When the Default command is invoked, or
power is restored, the RPS will automatically switch each plug On or Off
as specified by the Power-Up Default. (Default = On.)
Note: If you have accessed command mode using the System
password, the Default command will apply to all sixteen switched
plugs. If you have accessed command mode using a plug password,
then the command will only be applied to plugs that share the same
password entered at login.
