Settings on Just Add Power alter the behavior of the device upon start-up. Settings that are changed will not be active immediately; they will be applied upon the next start-up. Many settings should be altered according to the unique situation present in each installation and are not recommended as blanket settings for all systems.
All Settings should be entered via the Command Line Interface accessible via:
All Settings are case-sensitive.
astparam dump
astparam g [parameter]
astparam s [parameter] [value]
astparam save
sleep 1
reboot
astparam s [parameter]
Multiple commands can be chained together to be applied simultaneously. Separate each command with a semicolon (;). Recommend adding Delay 1 Second after Save to ensure that the device has time needed to commit changes to permanent memory.
astparam s ip_mode static;astparam s ipaddr 10.0.0.2;astparam s netmask 255.0.0.0;astparam s gatewayip 10.0.0.2;astparam save;sleep 1;reboot
