GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MultiPAL Remote Controlled
Power Strip, models MP-415 and
MP-420 allow an operator with a
tone dial telephone to access,
interrogate and control four A/C
power outlets. (Except were noted
both models will be refered to as
the MP-415 in this manual) Each of
the four outlets on the MP-415 can
be independently turned on, off or
pulsed for power-on reset. The
unique MultiPAL controller allows
the switch to be placed in series with any normal telephony device (phone, fax, modem, etc.). Normal
calls can pass transparently through MP-415; only when you enter a DTMF (touch tone) code, will the MP-
415 respond and allow switch control.
To operate the MP-415, place a telephone call to the dial line connected to the unit. The MP-415 provides
three call answer modes and several security options. When the call is validated, MP-415 will read off the
current status of the switch and then prompt the caller to change the switch position. When a change is
made, the new status is repeated and additional changes can be made. When no more changes are
required, the caller can hang-up, or send an additional code to access any extension device connected to
the MP-415.
