REMOTE POWER CARD - PHONE VERSION



This is a 1/4 slot card for the PC or SBC which allows the computer to be 
powered up or down with a telephone call.  Used with a modem, the RPCP can
be used to retrieve files or actually log in and use the computer from a
remote location.  Unattended FAX and/or BBS transfers are also possible. 
It is not necessary to leave the computer on all the time which wastes
power and reduces the life of the hardware.  

A special dialing sequence is used so the RPCP coexists with answering
machines, FAX, and voice.  To access the computer remotely let the line
ring once then hang up for 40 seconds and dial again.  The computer will be
powered up and can then answer the phone with a FAX, modem, or voice mail
card.  A 1 is then written to the Turn-on Register (default=180h) to
prevent subsequent phone calls from having any effect.  When the program is
done the computer is shut off again by writing to the Shut-down Register
(default=181h).

Other AC appliances can be controlled instead of the computer if needed. 
DC voltages and relays can also be controlled via on-board sink and source
transistors.  The power can be jumpered to turn on or turn off at terminal
count.  

                 REMOTE POWER CARD - TIMER VERSION

This card is similar to the RPCP but instead of controlling power with a
phone call, a timer is used.  Late night modem downloads and shutting the
computer off after a lengthy backup procedure are typical applications. 
Another use involves stretching battery life in datalogging systems by
powering up periodically to take a reading then shutting down.  Time delays
are programmable as follows:
                                                  4m=22-14 30-29

  jumpers are the same     8s=22-18 28-29        16h=22-12 30-29
  as for the RPCP card.   16s=22-12 28-29        32h=22-13 30-29
  The 34 pin connector    32s=22-13 28-29        64h=22-10 30-29
  has the same pinout.    64s=22-10 28-29       128h=22-17 30-29
