User Manual

Power (Watts) W and kW
Settings for sensors that
measure power as total watts
(W) or kilowatts (kW).
Temperature °F (-40.0 - 122.0)/ °C (-40.0 -
50.0)
Settings for sensors that
measure temperature as
degrees Fahrenheit (°F) or
Celsius (°C).
Voltage V
Settings for sensors that
measure either AC or DC
voltage as total volts (V).
Numerical threshold types:
Setting Description
Minimum Value Threshold
An alarm occurs when the sensor's value is
below the Minimum setting.
Maximum Value Threshold
An alarm occurs when the sensor's value is
above the Maximum setting.
Range Threshold
An alarm occurs when the sensor's value is
outside the range defined by the Minimum and
Maximum settings.
Below Value for Time Threshold An alarm occurs if the sensor value is below the
Minimum setting for longer than the delay in
the Time Allowed Below Minimum setting.
Above Value for Time Threshold
An alarm occurs if the sensor value is above
the Maximum setting for longer than the delay
in the Time Allowed Above Maximum setting.
Rate of Increase Threshold
An alarm occurs if the sensor value increases by
more than the Maximum Increase setting since
the last time the sensor value was sampled. For
example, at a sensor that measures amps, 1
would result in an alarm when the amps
measured by the sensor increases by one amp.
Rate of Decrease Threshold
An alarm occurs if the sensor value decreases by
more than the Maximum Decrease setting since
the last time the sensor value was sampled. For
example, at a sensor that measures total watts
(W), 100 would result in an alarm when the watts
measured by that sensor goes down 100 watts.
Other numeric thresholds
The Other Numeric Sensors option allows you to set thresholds for numeric sensors that
monitor values not covered by the nine threshold-specific numeric options.
The following lists identify some common examples of numeric sensors you can configure
using the Other Numeric Sensors option. The actual sensors will depend on the device
types managed by the StruxureWare Central server.
Note: You can configure multiple sensors discovered for the Other Numeric Sensors
option, when the sensors you select can all use the same threshold settings. For example,
battery and UPS age sensors use the same units of measure, and can be configured at the
same time, as can utility, input, and output voltage sensors.
