POWER CONTROL


The A/C power is controlled by a few simple codes sent to Pal. In all cases, Pal responds with tones to
confirm commands and to report the current status of the power. If invalid codes are sent, Pal responds
with a low ‘Error’ tone. Power can only be controlled on calls placed to Pal. During outgoing calls, Pal is
totally transparent, allowing any phone numbers to be dialed without risk of accidental power control.


Select Outlet

Once PowerPal EXP is ready, it will send a “Ready” prompt (three short beeps). The caller has 10

seconds to enter a

1

or

2

to select the desired outlet.

Pal will respond with the current power status:

One Beep = Power OFF
Two Beeps = Power ON

Once the current status is reported the caller can control the power. Power can either be changed On or
Off, or a Power Reset can be done.

The caller can switch any time between Outlets 1 and 2. Each time

1

or

2

is selected, the current

status of the outlet is reported.

To Change Power

This Toggles power from On to Off or Off to On. Pal will respond with the new status. Power On (Two

necessary.

Power Cycle

Enter:


Power Cycle will change the power status for a preset time. The length of the Cycle is user
programmable (5-45 sec.). When Power Reset is commanded, Pal first reports status at the start of the
pulse, then again after the preset time. This feature can be used to do a power reset (from On to Off to
On) or a momentary On (Off to On to Off).

EXTENSION RING


The Extension Port can be accessed at any time after Pal gives the “Ready” prompt by simply pressing

the

key. This will cause the Pal to ring the Extension Port. If the device on the extension does not

answer, Pal will terminate the call. The number of rings Pal allows to the extension is user programmable
(1-6 rings).
