1.4 Remote sensors
This window shows the list of remote sensors associated with the SNMP adapter connected to the UPS. Up to 6 different types of remote
sensor can be associated with an SNMP adapter using the serial port (see sensor cable wiring specifications). The remote sensors are
divided into three categories:
a. Temperature sensors that measure the environmental temperature around the sensor. Alarms can be set to
indicate when high or low temperature thresholds are exceeded so that certain actions can be taken (sending an
SMS or an e-mail or system shutdown).
b. Temperature and humidity sensors that measure the environmental temperature and humidity around the sensor.
Alarms can be set to indicate when high or low temperature thresholds are exceeded so that certain actions can
be taken (sending an SMS or e-mail or system shutdown).
c. Temperature and digital I/O sensors that measure the environmental temperature around the sensor and have
two contacts – an Input and an Output. Alarms can be set to indicate when high or low temperature thresholds
are exceeded so that certain actions can be taken (sending an SMS or e-mail or system shutdown). It is also
possible to set parameters for the Input contact so that certain actions are taken (sending an SMS or e-mail or
system shutdown) whenever the contact opens (or closes),
One of the actions that can be taken is the closing of the Output contact of the digital I/O sensors. This can be set to signal a general
alarm condition on the UPS (e.g. AC Failure), or a general alarm condition on a sensor (e.g. high temperature).
Up to 32 remote sensors can be configured. Given that a maximum of 32 UPS systems can be controlled, it is evident that if each UPS
has 6 sensors, it will not be possible to monitor all the sensors. It is up to the user to choose which of the 32 sensors he intends to
monitor.
It is possible to add, delete or modify the sensors listed.
