Setting the IP address using CLI
Connect to the iBootBar for initial setup using the Command Line Interface (CLI) to set the IP Address. You will need to be on the
same local subnet (192.168.0.xxx) to perform the initial configuration.
These are the basic commands to set the network parameters. After setting these parameters, the iBootBar will need to be rebooted
for the settings to take effect. Any command that requires rebooting of the iBootBar will provide a prompt to do so. All commands
may be entered as required before rebooting.
Example: Telnet to default IP address 192.168.0.254

Serial Port
The iBootBar has a 9 pin D subminiature connector for RS-232
serial control. The connector is configured as DCE for direct
connection to a laptop or other terminal device. Default serial
parameters are 115,200 bps, 8 data, no parity, 1 stop bit
(115200,8,n,1). Flow control is not used.
Web Browser Control
The iBootBar web interface provides the easiest
means of operating the outlets and monitoring the
current status of the units. One or more outlets can
be simultaneously controlled with a few mouse clicks.
In cluster configurations, all 128 outlets can be
managed from the web pages.
To Control any of the outlets, Click on the checkbox
next to one or more outlets, then click the desired
new status, On Off or Cycle.
When Cycle is selected, the outlet(s) will cycle for
the amount of time set in the Cycle box. When mor
e than one outlet is controlled to turn on, there will
be a delay between outlets turning on, as set by the
Delay box.

7. This product should be operated only from the type of power source
indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power
supply to your home, consult your dealer or local power company.
8. This product is equipped with a three wire grounding type plug, a plug
having a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding type
power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug
into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding type plug. Do not use a 3-
to-2 prong adapter at the receptacle; use of this type adapter may result in
risk of electrical shock and/or damage to this product.
9. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord. Do not locate this product

touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a risk
of fire or electrical shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
12. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not disassemble this product, but
take it to a qualified serviceman when some service or repair work is
required. Opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous
