Configuring Temperature and Humidity Sensors

Path: Environment > Temperature & Humidity

Through the

Temperature & Humidity

page, when you have a temperature or a

temperature and humidity sensor connected to the Rack PDU, you can set thresholds
for Warning and Critical alarm generation (see

Device status icons

for details on each

type of alarm).

For temperature:
• If the high temperature threshold is reached, the system generates a Warning alarm.
• If the maximum temperature threshold is reached, the system generates a Critical

alarm.

Similarly, for humidity:
• If the low humidity threshold is reached, the system generates a Warning alarm.
• If the minimum humidity threshold is reached, the system generates a Critical alarm.

To configure temperature and humidity sensors:
1. Enter values for minimum, maximum, high, and low thresholds.
2. Enter

Hysteresis

values. (See

Hysteresis

for details.)

3. Enable alarm generation as desired.
4. Click

Apply

.

Click the thermometer symbol in the upper right corner to toggle
between Fahrenheit and Celsius.
