iBootBar – Precision Version

Frequent Outlet Control

In its factory default usage, which allows the iBootBar to remember the last state of the outlets when power is
restored to the device will result in a shortened product lifespan for customers who make frequent outlet changes.
Each outlet change results in status being written to non-volatile memory, which has a write cycle maximum.
Users in applications such as automated product test, life cycle and stress testing are encouraged to change from
the default setting to one that will not have these consequences.
For each outlet use the CLI command
set outlet <n> initial.state <last/on/off>
Set for either on or off to improve product life expectancy. for example:
set outlet 1 initial.state on
set outlet 4 initial.state off
Multi Outlet Control Command
This command is used to operate all eight outlets simultaneously.
set outlets <nnnnnnnn>
Where n is either 0 for off, or 1 for on.
The command once typed, reads from outlet eight to outlet 1 (most significant to least significant)
set outlets <8 status ,7 status ,6 status ,5 status ,4 status ,3 status ,2 status ,1 status>
Examples:
set outlets 00000001 .................................................. outlet 1 on and 2-8 off
set outlets 10000000 .................................................. outlet 8 on and 7-1 off
set outlets 10101010 .................................................. outlets 2,4,6,8 on and 1,3,5,7 off
set outlets 01010101 .................................................. outlets 1,3,5,7 on and 2,4,6,8 off
set outlets 11110000 .................................................. outlets 5-8 on and 1-4 off
set outlets 11111111 .................................................. outlets 1-8 on
All eight positions must be included in this command, or an error will result.
This control command will not write to memory, even when the set outlet initial state is set to last
