TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR MAC'S POWER!
With PowerKey® Pro Model 200, you can start your entire Macintosh system, including peripherals, with a single keystroke. Control your peripherals automatically at startup, or on demand with hot keys. Powerful scheduling features let your Mac perform complex tasks unattended. Phone ring startup lets you access your Mac while on the road. And the optional server crash detection lets you rest at night, knowing your server will stay up and running.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
AUTOMATICALLY SWITCHABLE OUTLETS
PowerKey Pro has six outlets. Four of them switch on and off as a group, and are useful for plugging in your computer and peripherals. One outlet switches independently; this outlet can be used to switch a device such as a modem or printer which you don't wish to run full time, or to switch your monitor off when you're not using it. The last outlet is unswitched; it is useful for a Mac with "soft power" (the ability to switch itself on and off), or as a convenience outlet.
ONE-TOUCH SYSTEM STARTUP
When you press your keyboard's "power on" key, PowerKey Pro starts up your computer and all your peripherals. It also automatically turns off your peripherals when you select "Shut Down."
PHONE RING POWER CONTROL
PowerKey Pro can be connected to any analog phone line. You can create Events to turn on your system after any desired number of phone rings. You can also shut the computer down when your fax or remote session is finished.
POWERFUL SCHEDULING CAPABILITIES
The PowerKey Pro software lets you easily create powerful Events to control your system. Each Event has a Trigger which can be based on time and date, hot key, system activity, telephone ringing or power failure. Each Event can initiate one or more Actions, to switch outlets, start up or restart your computer or perform system tasks such as executing AppleScripts or QuicKeys(TM), opening files, mounting SCSI hard disks, etc. You can also define your own custom Actions using any programming language. You can also combine Events, for example to start up when the phone rings, then shut down when the computer is idle (i.e.your session is complete).
AUTOMATIC POWER RESTORATION
If power fails to the PowerKey Pro, you can program it to automatically restart your system when power returns. In addition, you can run any programs you wish to check the condition of your system and then reload your applications.
OPTIONAL SERVER CRASH RESTARTING
The Server Restart Option is an upgrade which can help your server recover from crashes automatically. With this add-on installed, the PowerKey Pro hardware and software are able to stay in constant contact with each other while your computer is running. When the hardware loses communication with the software, it can restart your server by switching the server's outlet off, then back on. PowerKey Pro also provides application-level crash detection for a growing list of popular server applications. With this feature, PowerKey Pro offers a two-tiered defense against downtime.EASY INSTALLATION
Simply plug PowerKey Pro into a wall outlet and plug your computer and peripherals into the outlets you choose. Install the PowerKey software on your Mac OS-based computer and you are ready to go. If you wish to use the remote access capabilities of the PowerKey Pro Model 200, connect the included phone cable to your analog telephone line wall outlet. The case of PowerKey Pro has mounting holes to facilitate attaching it to a wall or desk, if you choose.
