IPS Internet Power Switch; User's Guide
1. Introduction
Electronic equipment sometimes "locks-up," requiring a service call
just to flip the power switch to perform a simple reboot. The IPS-15
Internet Power Switch gives you the ability to perform this function
from anywhere, just point your browser to the IPS's IP address, enter
the secure user name and password, and you're just a click away
from remote power On, Off or Reboot!
Intelligent Power Control
In addition to web browser access, the IPS can also communicate
over any TCP/IP network using standard Telnet, or out-of-band
using an external modem and basic VT100 type terminal emulation.
Expandable
The Main IPS unit can be linked to four additional low cost satellite
units for a total of five individually controlled outlets. If Satellite
Units are addressed in a gang configuration (multiple units assigned
to each address), then up to 16 Satellite Units can be linked together.
Flexible mounting options are also available. A Zero U rack bracket
lets you mount the IPS on the outside of a standard 19 inch rack rail.
A 1U rack tray allows mounting one main unit and two satellite units
in a 19 inch rack.
Security Features
To assure security, web browser access requires the user to enter an
assigned user name and password. The IPS provides two levels of
operational passwords; the System Administrator Level, which
allows access to all configuration and switching functions, and the
User Level, which only allows switching of assigned plugs.
1-1
Easy to Configure, Easy to Use
The IPS can be configured over the network, via modem, or locally
via the IPS console port. Easy to use commands let you assign a
location name, set system parameters and view plug status. Outlets
can be switched On, Off, or booted using plug numbers or names.
Reliability and Support
The IPS is built in the USA and backed by a two year warranty.
NetReach products are installed in thousands of network sites world
wide. Our customers know they can depend on WTI for superior
quality and reliability for their most mission-critical operations.
Typographic Conventions
Throughout this manual, typefaces and characters have been used to
denote the following:
COURIER FONT Indicates characters typed on the keyboard.
For example, /ON 3 or /OFF 5.
[Bold Font] Text set in bold face and enclosed in
square brackets indicates a specific key.
For example, [Enter] or [Esc].

ÁConsole Port: A DB9, RS232 serial port (DTE), for
connection to a local terminal or external modem, as
described in Section 4.3.
ÂNetwork Port: An RJ45 Ethernet Port for connection to your
TCP/IP network. The default IP Address is 192.168.168.168,
for more information, please refer to Section 5.3.1 and
Section 4.4.
ÃACT Indicator: Flashes to indicate activity at the Network
Port.
ÄPWR Indicator: Lights when Power is Applied to the
Master Unit. Note that this LED does not indicate the On/Off
status of the Master Unit's switched AC outlet.

Figure 2.1: IPS-15 Master Unit - Front Panel
ÆPlug Indicator and Manual Control Button: An On/Off
Indicator and Manual Control Button for the Master Unit's
switched plug. To manually switch the plug "On" or "Off",
press and hold the control button for one second.
Note: If desired, the Manual Control Button can also
be disabled, set to control only the plug on the Master
Unit, or set to control the Master Unit plus all
connected Satellite Units as described in Section 5.3.1.
2.1.2. Master Unit Back Panel
The Back Panel of the IPS-15 Master Unit includes a master power
switch, the switched AC outlet, a power inlet, and a circuit breaker
as described below.
ÀMaster Power Switch: This switch must be "On" in order for
the IPS-15 to function. Note that this switch is not used to set
the On/Off status of the switched outlets.
ÁSwitched AC Outlet: A 115 VAC outlet, that can switch up
to 15 Amps. If more than one switched outlet is required,
optional IPS-15 Satellite Units can be easily added to provide
control of up to 17 outlets.
ÂPower Inlet: A 115 VAC inlet that supplies power for the
IPS's command functions and the switched plug.
ÃCircuit Breaker: 115 VAC, 15 Amps.

2.2. The Optional Satellite Unit
The optional, IPS-15 Satellite Unit allows you to add switched
outlets whenever you need them. Satellite Units can be switched
On, Off, or rebooted in response to commands issued at the
IPS-15 Master Unit.
2.2.1. Satellite Unit Front Panel
The front panel of the IPS-15 Satellite Unit includes two link ports,
an address selector switch, and power indicator lights.
ÀLink Ports: Two RJ11 jacks used to connect the Satellite
Unit to the IPS-15 Master Unit, and/or to other IPS Satellite
Units. Switching commands are sent from the Master Unit to
the Satellite Unit(s) via the Link Ports.
ÁAddress Selector Switch: A four position slider switch,
which is used to select the address for each IPS Satellite Unit.
Note that the address for the Master Unit is always "1." For
more information, please refer to Section 4.5.
ÂPWR Indicator: Lights when power is applied to the
Satellite Unit. Note that the PWR LED does not indicate the
On/Off status of the Satellite Unit's switched AC outlet.
