Introduction
The MSNSwitch from Mega System Technologies, Inc ("MegaTec") is designed to automatically power-cycle any
AC powered device when Internet connectivity is lost. Either of its AC power outlets can also be reset manually
or via scheduled actions.
There are 7 ways to access and control the functionality of the MSNSwitch:
1. The MSNSwitch’s internal web server screens
2. ezDevice smartphone app
3. Cloud4UIS.com web service
4. Skype
5. Google Hangouts
6. A REST-ful API for HTTP commands
7. The Netility utility software
IMPORTANT NOTE
Support for the ezDevice app
and Cloud4UIS.com web service
was added in MSNSwitch
firmware version MNT.9319
(04/24/2019). MSNSwitchS
running older firmware must be
updated - see Updating
Firmware on page 16.
Support for the ezDevice app
and Cloud4UIS service is
Disabled in the MSNSwitch by
default.
You must use the MSNSwitch’s
internal web server to enable
this function under the Network
menu.
