Answer-and-Quiet Mode
After answerin , Power Mate
waits 10 seconds in quiet for a
control-code entry. If none is
received, the unit either rin s the
extension port or disconnects,
dependin on the security level.
Answer-and-Quiet Mode is
su ested if you want secure
power control and the shortest
time delay before the extension
is run or if you want to use your
modem’s wait-for-quiet answer
command.
Answer-and-Dial one Mode
Power Mate answers a call
and responds with 4 seconds of
dial tone followed by 6 seconds
of silence. If no control code is
entered durin the silence, the
unit either rin s the extension port
or disconnects, dependin upon
the security settin . This mode is
ood for automated access and
when you want to use your
modem’s wait-for-second-dial-
tone command.
Power Control
In any answer mode, Power
Mate waits durin the quiet part
of the sequence for either a
security code or “1” to be
entered, promptin it to respond
with the power status (one beep
for Off, two beeps for On). You can
then choose to chan e or reset
the power, to rin the extension
port, or to end the call.
To chan e the power settin ,
enter “#.” The Power Mate
switches from On to Off or vice
versa. The unit then responds
with the new status.
For Power Reset, enter “*.”
The unit will pulse the power for a
user-set interval (5 to 45 seconds).
The Power Mate reports the
power status at the start of the
pulse, then a ain after the preset
amount of time.
At any time after you enter the
control/ security code, you can
access the extension port by
enterin “0”. After this is done,
the Power Mate accepts no more
power-control commands but
continues to monitor the call. It
han s up the line upon call
completion.
Power Mate can be set to
automatically switch power to
Off after a user-preset delay (5 to
90 seconds) upon call completion.
This option is useful, for example,
for switchin a PC on before and
off after you use its modem on the
Power Mate’s extension port.
Your PC stays secure—it’s shut
down unless someone who
knows how to use the Power
Mate calls to access it. If power
is already set to Off when a call
is terminated, then this feature
is disabled.
Security Settings
Power Mate includes three
user-settable security levels:
Disabled, for power control only,
or for both power-control and
extension-port-rin in functions.
For the second and third options,
you set a one- to six-di it security
code that will be required when
callin to perform remote-control
operations.
The power-only security level
allows all callers unrestricted line
access but requires entry of the
security code for power control.
When security is set for power
and extension-port functions, a
security code must be entered by
all callers in order to use either
the Power Mate or the telephone
device attached to its extension
port.
Incorrect security-code
entries are answered with a low
error tone and a pause for a
second attempt. If the second
attempt is incorrect, Power Mate
either rin s the extension-port
device or disconnects the call,
dependin on the security-level
settin .
