I have some Cellular appliances that hang up twice or three times a week. They are in a remote location, attached to a PC running Debian, to which I have access. Phisically reset is done by going to the site (a mere 50 km away!) and shutting off/on the power socket. I'll try your circuit to shut off and then on the mains to the cellular phones, every time they hang up. I owe You a virtual beer!!! Thanks a lot!

Use the command *B to read the status. <img src="http://www.alfersoft.com.ar/files/usocket/pictures/mod.png" alt="Prototype" width="450" height="375" /> Here is a modification to read the current relay state:
