Power Cycle
Times
Upon triggering, iBoot-DC will cycle the power. If Power Cycle does not
result in the ping response the iBoot-DC can cycle again. The number of
times the iBoot-DC will cycle is set by the Times setting. To have the iBoot
cycle power 3 times to get the system to respond again, set the Times to 3.
Wait: This is the length of time the iBoot-DC+ allows for a response to a ping.
With AutoPing operational, the main iBoot-DC page will display the current status of this feature. The
status will be OK to indicate that iBoot-DC is receiving responses to the ping, or that the fail counter has
not yet been exceeded.
If the fail count has been exceeded, the status will change to FAIL. The Trigger Counter indicates the
number of times the AutoPing action has been triggered. A counter reset button is provided.
Note: All of the AutoPing Settings require a reboot of the iBoot-DC, after clicking Save. A Reboot button
will appear at the bottom of the page. The new settings will not take effect until the unit is
rebooted. Reboot will not affect the power position of the iBoot-DC. Upon Clicking Reboot, the
Goodbye page is displayed with a link to re-login.
