IPS-800/IPS-1600 Series - User’s Guide
• Inactivity Timeout: Determines how long the IPS will wait for
additional commands during periods of inactivity. When the Timeout
Period elapses, the user will be disconnected from the IPS command
mode. (Default = 2 Minutes.)
• Command Confirmation: When enabled, the IPS will display a
confirmation prompt before executing certain commands. When
disabled, the prompt will be suppressed and commands will be executed
immediately. (Default = On/Enabled.)
• Automated Mode: When enabled, the IPS will execute On, Off, Boot,
and exit commands without displaying a confirmation prompt, status
screen or confirmation messages. For more information, please refer to
Section 6.4. (Default = Off.)
Note: When this option is enabled, security functions are suppressed,
and users are able to access configuration menus and control plugs
without entering a password. If security is a concern and the
Automated Mode is required, it is recommended to use the IP Security
feature (Section 5.3.4.1) to restrict access.
• Manual Switch Button: Enables and configures the Default Button’s
manual plug control function, but does not effect the Default Button’s
ability to reset parameters to default values. (Default = "On".)
▪ Off: Disables the manual plug control function.
▪ On: Enables manual plug control. When Default is pressed and held
for three seconds, all outlets will be toggled On or Off.
• Command Prompt: Allows the Text Interface command prompt to be
set to either "IPS", "NPS", or "NBB." (Default = IPS.)
