Description

Sensor Name

Configure the name of a sensor (or device) with up to 15 characters.

Set Point

The threshold of a sensor (Temperature or Humidity) will trigger an

alarm, whenever the measurement is over (high) or under (low) the

set point. If the checkbox is not filled, the threshold is disabled and

the alarm will not be triggered. The valid range for the Temperature

threshold setting is 5 to 65, and 5 to 95 for Humidity.

Calibration Offset

If the measurement value of a sensor doesn't, for whatever reason,

comply with the actual environment, the 'Calibration Offset' setting

can be configured to adjust the final value of the sensor. For example,

if a sensor reports 43% humidity for a 45% humidity environment, the

user can configure the humidity offset as 2% so the sensor can then

adjust its final value to 45%.

Alarm Type

If an alarm sensor (water leak, security, etc) is connected to the IP

Power Manager, the user can configure the alarm as 'Disabled',

'Normal Open', or 'Normal Close'. A 'Disabled' setting will mean the

alarm is inactive. 'Normal Open' and 'Normal Close' are used for a

two-wire detector that will emulate an open/close state. When the

wires are closed to 'loop-back' (the signal for the sensor), the sensor

will detect the state as closed. The sensor will NOT activate the alarm

for 'Normal Close' in this case, although the alarm will be activated if

configured as 'Normal Open'.

EMD Status

The EMD can be configured as 'Disabled' or 'Auto'. The setup should

be configured as 'Disabled' if an EMD is not attached to the port. The

EMD type will be auto detected by the IP Power Manager if

configured as 'Auto' and if the EMD is plugged into the port.
