Temporarily set the ignition power delay

By default, the TX64 device automatically powers on when it detects power on the ignition sensor, and powers off when it detects that there is no power on the ignition sensor.

You can temporarily set the device's ignition power off delay without changing the device configuration by using the system power ignition off_delay command. This allows for one-time maintenance activities, such as a firmware update, to occur after the ignition is switched off.

Once the device has powered off, the temporary power off delay will no longer apply and the device will use the previously configured power off delay when it restarts.

 

  Command line

  1. Select the device in Remote Manager and click Actions > Open Console, or log into the TX64 local command line as a user with full Admin access rights.

    Depending on your device configuration, you may be presented with an Access selection menu. Type admin to access the Admin CLI.

  2. To temporarily override the configured ignition power on delay:
    > system power ignition off_delay OFF_DELAY

    where OFF_DELAY is any number of hours, minutes, or seconds, and takes the format number{h|m|s}.

    For example, to set the ignition power on delay to ten minutes, enter either 10m or 600s:

    (config)> system power ignition on_delay 600s
    (config)> 

    The maximum value is 18h.

  3. Type exit to exit the Admin CLI.

    Depending on your device configuration, you may be presented with an Access selection menu. Type quit to disconnect from the device.
