Room Alert 32W Configuration And Setup Screens
Internal Power Sensor
The Internal Power Sensor will automatically trigger an alert when main power is lost. The Room Alert 32W has
a built-in UPS and will remain on long enough to send alert notifications if a main power failure should occur.
NOTE: The Room Alert 32W monitor has a built-in battery backup system (i.e. UPS) that will keep the Room Alert 32W monitor
powered long enough to send alert notifications indicating power failure. To enable the battery backup feature, simply push in or
depress the red button next to the power jack.
Digital Sensors
The alert thresholds for Digital Sensors are entered in the ‘Sensor # Alarm Configuration’ sections with
‘#’ representing the digital port number the sensor is connected to. The sensor label for that corresponding
sensor can be updated in the field below the ‘Sensor Label’. High and low thresholds for the temperature
are entered in the ‘High’ and ‘Low’ columns. Temperature thresholds must be entered in the temperature
scale (i.e. Fahrenheit or Celsius) selected on the ‘Advanced’ tab. If the sensor readings differ from a known
temperature at the sensor location, the display value can be calibrated using the ‘Adjust’ column.
Digital sensors provide real-time variable status values that can be used to obtain a more definitive
understanding of a current sensor’s status, allowing products like Device ManageR and other monitoring
software to monitor at multiple thresholds and be logged for historical reference. These values are included
within alert messages for a clearer understanding by recipients and used for trending or manipulation into
graphs or charts via other applications. These sensors attach to various AVTECH hardware to the External
Environment Sensor Channels via an RJ-11 connection. Current sensors providing real-time values include
the Digital Temperature Sensor, Digital Outdoor Temperature Sensor, Digital Fluid Temperature Sensor and
Digital Temperature & Humidity Sensor.
