PowerNode White

The White power nodes (most recent version 1.08) are an improved version of the PowerNodeNG.

See these pages for manuals for each of these machines. Or this pages for everything on Access nodes.

General Use

To start the machine - swipe your card. You should hear a beeb when the card is scanned. And a second short beeb when it is accepted. They may almost coincide if the network is fast that day.

To stop the machine - press the normal stop button on the machine if it has a SafetyRelay - or press the small button next to 'OFF' on the node itself when the machine does not have a SafetyRelay.

Accessing logging and trouble shooting

Use the right button labeled 'MORE' button (only accessible when the machine is not powered on) to access an extra set of menu's:

1. Page 1 -- a QR code with a URL to a wiki page with documentation.
2. Page 2 -- a QR code with an HTTP URL that will show the logging (you need to be physically at the space for this.
3. Page 3 -- a page with the IP address and other details. You can 'telnet' to this IP address directly to see the (serial) log.

There may be additional pages on some nodes. Exist this by pressing the left button or waiting for a few seconds.

Hardware options

The boards allow for various extra `options'

Pushbutton and LED connectors

Normal two-pin XH 2.54 connector for the LED and for each of the push-buttons (inside the footprint). Same type as often used for fans on PCs.
