Question for UPAMD control
All,
Is there any way to control power to
multiple devices based on the activity of one device one device?
A handshake with the computer that indicates
it is going to sleep, or being shut off (even though a battery may be charging
in a laptop) would turn off the unneeded peripherals. A peripheral
manufacturer may design this in, or a user can choose from the list of
attached devices. The latter would be needed for a peripheral like
a WiFi enable printer can be selected for shutdown if unused by others,
or left on.
The same this would apply if UPAMD is
used for a home entertainment system (TV off, DVD player, surround sound,
etc. off, DVR remains on).
Taken to the extreme, an office or a
home could use UPAMD to control all its power (with UPAMD adapter modules
to control things requiring 240W and above).
A computer tied system has the advantage
of being able to use software control, other applications may not afford
a sophisticated control system.
Thanks,
