Device Start-up

The ‘current’ set of Start-up Parameter values on a cluster server are those used in the start-up procedure, which can be remotely initiated from a cluster client using the function eCLD_CommissioningCommandRestartDeviceSend(). This function sends a Restart Device command to the remote device hosting the cluster server. This command provides a number of options concerning the timing of the restart:

• Without delay: The start-up procedure is invoked as soon as the command is received. This option requires both the delay and jitter to be specified as zero.

• **With delay:**The start-up procedure is invoked after a specified delay (in seconds). If no delay is required, the delay period must be specified as zero.

• With delay and jitter: The start-up procedure is invoked after a specified delay (in seconds) with a random jitter period added. It is necessary to indicate a maximum jitter period but the actual period will be randomly generated. If no jitter is required, the maximum jitter period must be specified as zero.

Note: If only jitter is required, the delay period must be specified as zero and the maximum jitter period must be non-zero.

In all of the above cases, it is possible to configure the start-up procedure to begin either without any further delay or at a ‘convenient’ moment (when there are no pending actions that should be completed before the restart).

The above options are configured in the command payload (see Section 43.9.2).

The cluster server will send a Restart Device Response to the requesting client before invoking the start-up procedure or starting the countdown (for the delay).
