Serial Interface Operation

alarm command

Use this command to retrieve critical alarm thresholds for individual phases and a total of all phases. Also use
this command to set the critical alarm threshold value for individual phases (L1, L2, and L3) or for a total of all
phase lines on the rPDU.

Usage

<rPDU>alarm
<rPDU>alarm [<threshold>]]
<rPDU>alarm [<threshold> X|Y|Z]] (for three-phase models)

where:

<threshold> = 1 to the maximum current, entered as a whole number, reported as Amperage

100 to the maximum watt rating, entered as a whole number, reported as wattage

X = Phase L1
Y = Phase L2
Z = Phase L3

Retrieve the current critical alarm threshold settings for one or all rPDU phase lines

<rPDU>alarm

Example

rPDU>alarm
Alarm threshold on rPDU is 2000W
Alarm threshold on rPDU phase X is 24.0A
Alarm threshold on rPDU phase Y is 24.0A
Alarm threshold on rPDU phase Z is 24.0A

Set the threshold for the alarm level of a total of all phases on the rPDU

rPDU>alarm [<threshold>]

NOTE:

The threshold value you set should be between 1A and the maximum current on the rPDU, or between 100W and

maximum watt rating rPDU. Enter the value as a whole number.

Example

rPDU>alarm 3000
Setting alarm threshold on rPDU to 3000W

Set the threshold for the alarm level of specific phases on the rPDU
(Three-phase rPDUs only)

rPDU>alarm [<threshold> X|Y|Z]]

Example

rPDU>alarm 20 X
Setting alarm threshold on rPDU phase X to 20.0A
