10/100 and Uplink/Downlink. A Link LED next to each indicates when the connection to the network is properly established. The built-in hub allows one cable from the wiring closet to be used for both iBoot and the device it is powering (or any other device). This greatly simplifies installation. Use of both network jacks is optional.

Page 16: Auto-Ping
Use Auto-Ping Locally: Put iBoot next to the device to be monitored and reboot it automatically when it no longer responds. Use Auto-Ping Remotely: Put iBoot at a central facility to monitor a remote system and power up an alert when the remote device no longer responds.
Page 17: Auto Ping
Power Cycle Power Cycle Once Power On – Latch: Upon loss of ping response, iBoot will power on and remain so until changed via the web, ibootctl.exe or direct messaging. Power On – Follow: Upon loss of ping response, iBoot will power on. When the ping response returns, iBoot will power off.
Page 18: Heartbeat Monitor
Like Auto-Ping, the Heartbeat monitor allows iBoot to monitor one or more devices and take action when these devices fail. With the Heartbeat monitor enabled, iBoot will expect a network message on a regular interval. When it misses a user defined number of intervals, it will perform its programmed action.
Page 19 Power Cycle Power Cycle Once Power On – Latch: Upon loss of heartbeat, iBoot will power on and remain so until changed via the web, ibootctl.exe or direct messaging. Power On – Follow: Upon loss of heartbeat, iBoot will power on. When the heartbeat returns, iBoot will power off.
Page 20 Using the Heartbeat Program Download the Heartbeat program at www.dataprobe.com/power/iboottools.html This program will generate heartbeats to one iBoot at regular intervals. It will also monitor a response back from iBoot to insure proper communication. Run the program. To begin use, first click Setup.
