Chapter 9: Using the Command Line Interface
Actuator Control Operations
702
An actuator, which is connected to a dry contact signal channel of a Raritan
sensor package, can control a mechanism or system. You can switch on or off
that mechanism or system through the actuator control command in the CLI.
Perform these commands in the administrator or user mode. See
Modes and Prompts
(on page 527).
Switching On an Actuator
This command syntax turns on one actuator.
#
control actuator <n> on
To quicken the operation, you can add the parameter "/y" to the end of the
command, which confirms the operation.
#
control actuator <n> on /y
Variables:
•
<n> is an actuator's ID number.
The ID number is available in the PX3TS web interface or using the show
command in the CLI. It is an integer starting at 1.
If you entered the command without "/y", a message appears, prompting you
to confirm the operation. Then:
▪
Type y to confirm the operation, OR
▪
Type n to abort the operation
