How PING Monitoring Works
This device sends out one ICMP echo request packet at the specified time interval (“PING Send
Interval (min)”) to the address set as the monitoring destination (“Monitoring”) and waits for a
response.
If there is no response from the address the set number of “NoAns” times within the “Send” times,
the address is determined to be NG.
When the number of addresses judged as NG reaches the “Target Number”, the outlet is judged as
NG and the set “Action” is executed.
If “Action” is set to “Reboot”, Reboot is executed the times configured in “Times” every time set in“Interval”.

Example) “Send”: 5
Response :“NoAns”: 3
OK → NG → OK → NG → OK → NG → NG → ……

“NG” is twice and is less than “NoAns”, so “Normal”
more than “NoAns”, so “Error”

If the unit receives partial response from the monitoring location, it will consider the outlet“Recovering.”

How to transmit commands by WEB

You can directly control the device via WEB commands.
Before using WEB commands, be sure that "Direct WEB Command" is enabled in the Network
Settings / Basic.
WEB commands are primarily for power control, and therefore not used to change settings on thedevice.
After "cmd.htm", enter the command according to the following format.

(HTTP Authentication Basic or Digest)?c= [used command](HTTP Authentication None)?i=[user ID] &p=[password] &c= [used command]

Example:User ID: admin / password: magic / command: por3

Ch. 7 Shutdown Script

Shutdown Script781. About Shutdown Scripts
This unit supports shut down scripts to safely shut down network devices.

(i) Shutdown Script Basics

1. Shutdown scripts are sent to target devices with the following conditions: Alive monitoring,scheduling, and power control.

2. The unit connects to the IP address and the port of the target device by means of TELNET.

3. Upon execution of the script, the outlet is turned off when one of the following conditions are met:-

If ping monitoring is enabled: When target device no longer responds to ping sent at
customized intervals, or when countdown exceeds that of the value set to shutdown delay time.

-

If ping monitoring is disabled: When countdown exceeds that of the value set to shutdown
delay time. (You may also customize shutdown conditions in the script)(ii) Shutdown Script Configuration

To modify shutdown script settings, please confirm the settings as detailed in “Chapter 4
Configure / Control with a Web Browser”.

Connect to the unit via TELNET to make modifications in the following parameters.
IP Address:

debOlShutdownAddr

Port Number:

debOlShutdownPort
If the value is set to 0, the unit will use the default TELNET port, 23.

Script Numebr:debOlShutdownScript

Enable / Disable Script:

debOlShutdownEnabledServer Name (ID):debOlShutdownName

Password:

debOlShutdownPassword

Ping Target:

debOlShutdownPingAddr
Pings target device to check if it has shutdown properly.
Configure IP Address or Domain Name.

Ping Interval:

Power OFF Condition:

debOlShutdownOffMax(iii) Log
1) Makes and entry in the log regarding whether or not the script was successfully executed.
The values of the following parameters are saved:
debOlShudownExit and debOlShutdownMsg(iv) Errors
When a connection cannot be establishedDuring shutdown delay, the unit will retry at an interval of a few seconds.
If the connection still cannot be established, attempts to reconnect are ended with error code 254.
If the connection is terminatedIf an established connection is terminated, the process will end with error code 253.

(v) Text Specifications

(vi) Confirmation by Ping-

When script execution is completed, Ping confirmation is executed regardless of the end code.

-

If the Ping execution destination (“Shutdown Ping Addr”) is specified, PING is sent at the
specified interval (“Shutdown Ping Interval”).
-

If there is no response for the specified number of times (“Shutdown Ping Count”),
Ping confirmation ends.

-

If Ping is sent the specified number of times (“Shutdown Ping Max”), Pingconfirmation ends.

-

If the Ping execution destination (“Shutdown Ping Addr”) is not specified, the Pingconfirmation immediately ends.

-

When the Ping confirmation is completed, the outlet power is turned off after the time delay
specified by the variable [debOlShutdownTime].
