Dear customer,
Your StromPi 3 offers you various software-controlled options that can be executed by your
Raspberry Pi using separate scripts. We would like to introduce you to these in this manual.
Below you will find an overview of the available scripts, the setup and use of which will be
explained in detail later in this manual.
Therefore, open the serial console to configure the shutdown timer:
Enter the command "startstrompiconsole" to start the console.
Now set the duration of the shutdown timer:
Now activate the timer:

2.1 Function
Many Raspberry Pis applications, operations and functionalities are timed. In the event of a
power failure, the entire timeout is disrupted because, even if power is restored, the
Raspberry Pis system time may no longer match the real time.
The RTCSerial script automatically matches the real time clock time with the current system
time of the Raspberry Pis. If one of the two times differs, the more current time is
automatically set as the system time.
