 Every 10 minutes, the ezeio will power up for a few seconds to collect a new data sample and then automatically power down again. When one hour has passed since the hibernation command was issued, the ezeio will power up normally and connect to the servers and upload the collected data. This completes a hibernation cycle.
-To continue hibernating, the server must issue a new hibernation command to the ezeio. This server-driven strategy is design to avoid any system failure or misconfiguration that would cause the ezeio to become unavailable by continuously hibernating.
+To continue hibernating, the server must issue a new hibernation command to the ezeio. This server-driven strategy is design to avoid any system failure or misconfiguration that would cause the ezeio to become unavailable by continuously hibernating. Note that the ezeio must be able to reliably communicate for hibernation to work. If the ezeio can't connect at least once every hour, it will exit hibernation and continue to run normally.

+The following hibernation modes are available
 | Normal Mode | No hibernation commands are sent. If already in a hibernation cycle, the ezeio should connect normally within 1 hour. |

+Default setting is 502 on both server and client. This is the standard port number established by Modbus.org. To disable the Modbus/TCP server, set the server port to 0 (zero).

 **IP**
+The local IP of this ezeio device. Leave blank to use DHCP automatic assignment.
 **DNS**
+Only significant if the IP is set. This should be the IP address of a valid DNS server.
+This can be left blank if the ezeio should only use the Ethernet port for LAN communication (Modbus/TCP) and not for server communication.

+For Modbus/TCP, only /24 or smaller networks are supported. The last octet is used in the driver section to address the Modbus/TCP servers.
-=== Delete ezeio ===
+=== Unregister ezeio ===
-The delete ezeio button removes an ezeio from the account it is registered to. It can then be added to another account. Since an ezeio can be moved between groups within an account, by simply dragging and dropping, this feature is only needed when the new location desired is outside of the current account. Deleting the ezeio has no effect on its configuration or services. Links to dashboard Widgets and reports in the group will be broken.

 Once deleted, you will need the serial number and registration code to add the ezeio to another account. These are located on the left side of the ezeio and also in the Identity section of the System information.
