Or, https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13015 use the POE to turn it on From: Jeremy Sent: Sunday, November 25, 2018 1:42 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject: [AFMUG] Simple way to power cycle AC power remotely? This is actually a issue with my boiler, but I know that we as WISPs have been coming up with creative ways to power cycle devices for as long as electronic gear has locked up (since the beginning). So, I have a boiler for my hydronic heat system which is intermittently locking up due to issues with the pressure in the propane system (the underground main is 3/8" soft copper.....another project for next Spring). When it locks up it needs to be reset in order to restart or the remote location gets cold and pipes can potentially freeze. The boiler has an app and a router deal that will notify me when the boiler errors out, but it is lacking the 'reset' functionality that is available on the local panel. I have Ethernet to the boiler, and a Netonix in the same room. I thought about using the Netonix POE to trigger a relay to cycle the AC, but I'm not sure what relay to use or if this is even the best bet. Perhaps there is a simple network-connected din-mount device or something that works well for this also. I could throw in a Tripp-Lite power controller, but I'd prefer something smaller, and the AC is currently connected inside of a junction box. I don't really want to bring the power out of the box to install an outlet and to put a power end on the cable, so I am looking for a way to connect a device in-line that can interrupt the AC main in the junction box. Anyone have any ideas for something like this? I imagine that you have all done this a hundred different ways, so let's hear 'em!
