1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The above listed systems provide secure and versatile power reboot management access for communication equipment such as routers, switches, and network devices. They are also the ideal assistant devices for engineering development and test applications. Key features include:
Local Master Port access: offers data rates from 2400 to 115200 bits/second and optional hardware handshaking (CTS/RTS). There are two operation modes for the port: Console Transparent Mode and System Control Mode.
Three user privilege login levels: The Administration level manages system configuration and unconditional access to all power outlets and all serial ports. The User level allows each user to reserve and manage his/her own ports, as well as to change most of system configuration settings. Anonymous users are able to view all settings and operate unreserved power outlets and serial console ports.
User name and password for each port: Each port is user name and password protected.
Line commands or menu configuration controls: Menu table operation offers user-friendly operation methods that are used for changing system configurations, viewing run time statuses, and issuing controls. Line commands provide quick and easy operations.
Telnet access: Remote access the system over a TCP/IP network for configuration and control of the systems.
Out of band Modem access interfacing: Control and configure the system via a telephone line. Optional custom Modem AT command string to the Modem.
HTTP web access: Embedded web server provides secured user name and password authentication. The operations are easy and friendly, utilizing tables and graphical icons. Download SNMP MIB files for convenience, or view an online help manual.
SNMP MIB capability: An SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agent is integrated in the system for an exchange of management information between the system and network devices.
POP/SMTP Emailing with SMTP Authentication capability: A user can send control commands such as reboot power outlet via emails. Command execution reports are replied for each command email received. SMTP user name and password are protected through authentication process.
SNMP Trap for sending logging message: The Trap is used to asynchronously report events to the NMS. It forwards power reboot command execution information to the remote Trap logging receiver.
1.2 What you can do with the system:
Remote equipment power source management over TCP/IP networks, including rebooting user equipment, and
permanently turning on/off user power source. Schedule power reboots or power source on/off events monthly, weekly, daily or at any time an application requires. Reboot power source to equipment when a network connection is lost.
Monitoring AC Power Consumptions and sending warning messages when the aggregated AC draw from a system is crossed predefined threshold.
Remote control anywhere by emailing. Via emails, you are able to manage the systems or user communication equipment power sources when LAN access is impossible. Via emails, you can send user data to the NP control commands such as rebooting user power source. Reply emails are sent after the system intercepts incoming emails so that you are informed with the operation status.
AutoPing and reboot user equipment. Connect your system to a power outlet and assign the system network IP address or URL. The NP system will ping the user equipment periodically (in every 15 seconds). If the user

2.1 Safety Precautions
It is important that you read this section before attempting any of the hardware installation and maintenance procedures in this guide.
The following instructions are important for your safety and for the functioning of the unit. Read the instructions carefully before attempting the installation
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, never remove the cover of the unit. No user serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done by authorized service personnel only.
The unit should be installed in indoor with ambient temperature and sufficient airflow.
WARNING! Ensure that the hardware you are working with is disconnected from the power supply during installation. This means that the unit’s power cable and network cables must remain disconnected until you are instructed to make the connections. Follow the instructions in the procedures carefully.
This equipment is disconnected from the power supply by removing the power cord(s) from the power outlet. It is therefore important to locate the unit close to a power outlet that is easily accessible.
WARNING! When connecting a hardware unit to a power supply, for your safety you must always connect it to a grounded wall outlet.
2.2 Battery Replacement
A 3.0V Lithium battery is installed in the unit for internal Real­Time Clock and system data retention. The battery should last at least 10 years. If the battery needs to be replaced, please ask qualified personnel for the service. Here is the instruction for the replacement:
A) Use CR2032 type, 3.0V Lithium battery.
B) Remove the old battery from the battery holder,
C) Insert the new replacement to the holder with “+” facing up.
3.1 Factory Default Settings:
The system is shipped with Factory Default settings. The default settings for the Local Master serial port are: 9600, 8 data bits,
no parity, 1 stop bit, and no hardware handshaking (Flow Control). The default Administrator’s login name “admin” and
the default password is “admin”. All existing user accounts are erased if the system is recovered to the default settings. The default SNMP Community string for public, private and Trap access is “public”.
There are two ways to restore the system to the Factory Default settings. The first method is to press a push-button switch located on the front panel for 1 second. The second method
is to select "Reload Factory Defaults" from the Main Menu. The Main Menu can be viewed by running a terminal emulation program such as Window’s Hyper Terminal or Telnet.
Upon the system startup, the terminal screen displays the following screen, as shown in the Figure 6.
If you do not see the screen as shown in the Figure 6, it is likely that the system is not in the default state. Otherwise, your connection to the Local Master port is established.
2 IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3 ACCESS TO THE SYSTEM
4
3.2 User Privileges and Port Reservations:
All user levels, including anonymous (visitor), are able to access the system via a serial connection from your work station to the Local Master port, or via a Telnet session from your work station.
Administration Login: There is only one Administration account on the system. The default name is “admin” and default password is also “admin”. The default name and password may be changed. If you login at Administration level, you are able to remove or change existing user accounts, take over power outlets or user serial console ports and change system settings.
User Login: At user login level, you are able to reserve power or console ports for your applications if they are “open”, as well as make system configuration changes. At this login level, you are not able to change power outlet operation status for other reserved power outlets.
Anonymous(Visitor) Access: If you have no account established on the system (as an anonymous user), you are only able to view the system configuration settings and operate unreserved power outlets.
3.3 Local Master Port Access:
To access and configure the system from the master port, you need to connect a RS232 port from your work station to the Local Master Serial Port. Then run a terminal emulation program (such as Window’s Hyper Terminal) on your computer.
1) Connect the system’s Local Master Port (DCE) with a straight
DB-9 type cable, if your work station is equipped with a DTE part.
2) Connect the system’s Ethernet port to your LAN, if you intend
to use the network port.
3) Turn the system power on.
4) At the terminal emulation program, type the “setup”
command to start the system setup process. Type “help” for help information.
5) The system has DHCP enabled, as a default setting. Network
connectivity parameters are displayed at the startup screen. If the system does not get a DHCP offer, the system falls back to default static network settings. You can alter the default network settings to fit your need.
6) Use the command “ping” to verify your connection. If a
network connection is established, you are able to use Telnet, Web Browsing, Emailing and SMNP.
3.4 External Modem Access:
With this access method, an RS232 port on an external Modem device is connected to the Local Master Port. Typically, a Modem device is equipped with a DCE (Data Communication Equipment) terminal connector. Since the system’s Local Master Port and Modem device ports are not complementary (both are DCE ports); you need to use a NULL Modem cable with both male connectors.
3.5 Telnet Access:
Operation of on a Telnet terminal is almost identical to the access method via Local Master Serial Port. You need to make sure that Telnet access is enabled, as a default setting. If the access is not enabled, please refer to Section “Using Configuration Menu” to change the setting.
Before you start the Telnet application, you need to obtain the actual IP address for the system. The system displays network connectivity information at system startup terminal when your workstation is connected to the system’s Local Master Serial Port. Please refer to “TCP/IP Network Configuration” section of this document for information on how to setup the network parameters.
Once the network connection is established, at your workstation prompt, you need to enter:
telnet ip_addr
You need to set a Telnet session on your workstation to Local Echo Off mode.
Telnet session permits an anonymous user who may only to view the system settings and operate unreserved power outlets and user serial console ports. Please refer to section 2.2 “User privileges and Port Reservations” for further information.
• Only one Telnet session may be active at the time. Telnet sessions will be refused by the system if it already has a Telnet session active.
• A Telnet session remains active for 10 minutes if it is in idle state.
• Telnet access methods can be enabled or disabled using the System Access Setup Menu.
• To terminate an active Telnet session, use the command “logout” at the terminal. If you are at a serial port terminal and notice that the terminal is disabled because it is taken over by a remote Telnet session, use the command “telnetend” at the serial console terminal to terminate the Telnet if you need to do so.
