Setting the serial port timeout value:
The Set Port Timeout command sets the serial port inactivity timeout period. The timeout period defines the
maximum period of inactivity before automatically closing the Pass-Thru session.
The valid range for the timeout is 0 to 60 (in minutes). The default timeout is 5 minutes. The command can be used to
set individual ports by ID or name.
NOTES:
 Setting the timeout value to “0” disables the timer.
 Only a numeric value is accepted.
To set the serial port timeout value for an individual port:
At the Switched CDU: prompt, type set port timeout, followed by the port ID or name, followed by a timeout value
from 0 to 60 (in minutes), and press Enter.
Configuring the Bluetooth™ options:
If the PDU has been equipped for the mobile monitoring solution using Bluetooth
®
technology, several Bluetooth
parameters will be available for editing on the Serial Ports configuration page.
To set the Bluetooth™ module name:
The Bluetooth™ module name displays in the list of discovered modules on the Android device. The default is “ST
Eye”, and the module name cannot be blank.
At the Switched CDU: prompt, type set bluetooth name, followed by 1-31 characters of a descriptive name for the
module, and press Enter.
To set the Bluetooth™ discoverability:
Three discoverability settings determine the current status of the pushbutton on the Bluetooth module:
 Always - The Bluetooth module is discoverable, even without pressing the pushbutton.
 Limited (Default) - The pushbutton on the Bluetooth module must be pressed to make the module
discoverable for 60-seconds.
 Never - The Bluetooth module is never in discoverable mode.
At the Switched CDU: prompt, type set bluetooth discover, followed by always, limited, or never, and press Enter.
To set the Bluetooth™ pin code:
The pin code is available for legacy Bluetooth modules that require a pin to pair the module. Although not used in
current Bluetooth modules, the pin code is supported if needed. The default is 9611.
At the Switched CDU: prompt, type set bluetooth pincode, followed by 4-digits from 0000 to 9999, and press Enter.
To set the Bluetooth™ transmission power:
This setting is the designated transmission power (dbm) for the Bluetooth module. Note that lowering the
transmission power reduces the effective range of the module. Default is 0
At the Switched CDU: prompt, type set bluetooth transpwr, followed by a value from -6 to 4 (dbm), and press
Enter.
