IMS-4840 External Power Sensor

Installation Instructions

Introduction

The IMS-4840 External Power Sensor lets you monitor

power anywhere within your infrastructure. It reports any

loss of power and measures the current voltage in the

circuit, allowing you to know the status of each server

rack and even of your remote UPS. Any failed generator

starts are reported to you immediately. The IMS-4840 can

monitor voltage from 0–250VAC 50/60Hz.

Package Contents
(1) IMS-4840 Power Sensor
(2) Plastic drywall anchors
(2) #6 Metal tapping screws
(4) Rubber feet

Cabling

The Power Sensor connects to the IMS-4000 Host or Node via an RJ-45 cable (e.g. CAT5 cable).

The connection from the sensor to the Host or Node can utilize your existing network wiring infra-

structure. For example, the sensor may be installed in another room or another floor. Connect the

sensor to your structured wiring network via an RJ-45 jack. At the other end, connect a patch cable

from your structured wiring patch panel directly to the Host or Node environment input.

!

Caution:

The IMS sensors are not TCP/IP devices and therefore should not be connected

directly to any wiring infrastructure that is connected to network equipment such as a

hub, router, or switch. Sensors use RJ-45 plugs and cables similar to those used with

Ethernet devices.
