Dear friends,
I am using K3 for remote operation. Recently we experience the increase  of power failures here in Ukraine.
Despite of having 7AH battery as a PS buffer, sometimes when the electricity is off for a long time, K3 is switched OFF.
This requires the trip to the remote site.
Is there an easy way to remotely switch K3 on and OFF through the serial port? Does a software exists that is dealing with this.

I was trying to find the K3 menu item that will enable switching K3 back ON when electricity is restored (like in all computer motherboards)  but could not.
Would appreciate the assistance.
