When you have finished making your configuration settings, click Save.

Shutdown Method There are three choices for the Shutdown method. Drop down

the list to select a choice. The meaning of each choice is

described, below:

Wake on LAN: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart option. If

this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the PN7212 /

PN7320 first sends a message to the computer telling it to

prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the amount time set

in the Power Off Delay field to give the OS time to close down

before the computer is powered down to standby mode.

Likewise, when the Outlet is turned On, the PN7212 / PN7320

waits for the amount time set in the Power On Delay field,

then sends an Ethernet message to the computer connected

to the Outlet telling the computer to turn itself On.

Note: For Safe Shutdown and Restart, the computer must be

running Windows (98 or higher), or Linux, and the Safe

Shutdown program (available by download from our website),

must be installed and running on the computer.

System after AC Back: This is a Safe Shutdown and Restart

option. If this is selected, when an Outlet is turned Off, the

PN7212 / PN7320 first sends a message to the computer

telling it to prepare for a shutdown; it then waits for the

amount time set in the Power Off Delay field to give the OS

time to close down before the computer is powered down.

When the Outlet is turned On, the PN7212 / PN7320 waits for

the amount time set in the Power On Delay field, then sends

power to the server. When the server receives the power, it

turns itself on.

Note: For Safe Shutdown and Reboot, the computer must be

running Windows (98 or higher), or Linux, and the Safe

Shutdown program (available by download from our website),

must be installed and running on the computer.

Kill the Power: If this option is selected, the PN7212 / PN7320

waits for the amount time set in the Power Off Delay field, and

then turns the Outlet's power Off. Turning the power off

performs a cold (non-safe) shutdown.

MAC Address In order to use either of the Safe Shutdown and Restart

methods the MAC address of the computer connected to the

outlet must be filled in here.

Threshold Settings These fields are used to set the maximum, minimum, and

fluctuation current threshold settings. See Device Threshold

Settings, page 41 for a further explanation.

Server Diagnosis These fields are used to set up an ICMP ping command to

check if the outlet is functioning properly. See Server

Diagnosis, page 35 for a further explanation.
