       This program cannot modify the internal schedule of the device.

       Configuration file is a table of devices. Each device is described on a separate  line;  fields  on  each
       line are separated by tabs or spaces.  Lines starting with '#' are comments, blank lines are ignored.

       Thefirstfield
              Name of device. It is a string that will be used to address the device in the utility commands. It
              is not necessary to be the same as Servername in the web interface.

       Thesecondfield
              Protocol. Supported protocols are: pms20 and pms21.Thethirdfield
              IP address of device.

       Thefourthfield
              TCP port of device.  (PowerManagerclientport in the web interface).

egctl  is a program to control the state of EnerGenie Programmable surge protector with LAN interface. It
       uses native EG-PMS-LAN data exchange protocol version 2.0 or 2.1, not HTTP. When executed with  the  only
       argument  it dumps the state of the specified device. If all five arguments are specified, it changes the
       state of the device and dumps the new state.

       Suppose a user has two EG-PMS-LAN devices configured as follows:

              1. 192.168.0.10, port 5000, password hackme
              2. 192.168.10.10, port 5001, password hackmesoftly

       In  order  to  control  them  using  the  utility  the user needs to create a configuration file like the
       following:

              eg1 pms20 192.168.0.10  5000 hackme
              eg2 pms20 192.168.10.10 5001 hackmesoftly

       Now she can get the status of the devices with commands

              egctleg1egctleg2

       and switch the state of the AC power sockets with a command like

              egctleg1onleftleftoff

~/.egtab
              user's configuration file

       /etc/egtab
              system-wide configuration file

       egctl - EnerGenie EG-PMS-LAN control utility
