6.0 EXTERNAL COMMUNICATION—BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS, LIEBERT

SITESCAN

Liebert iCOM is capable of communicating with external monitoring systems, such as Building

Management Systems (BMS), Network Monitoring Systems (NMS), Liebert's SiteScan

Web and

others.

Each Liebert iCOM-controlled cooling unit is equipped with Liebert IntelliSlot

plug-in slots for use

with optional communication cards. Two hot-swappable cards are available to provide remote

communication to the Liebert iCOM.

The Liebert IntelliSlot

Unity

™

Card monitors and manages a range of operating parameters, alarms

and notifications. Liebert IntelliSlot Unity cards deliver:

• Emerson Protocol for Trellis

™

, Liebert SiteScan

™

and Liebert Nform

• Embedded LIFE

™

Technology for Remote Service Delivery

• SNMP (v1/v2c/v3) for Network Management Systems

• HTTP/HTTPS for Web page viewing

• SMTP for e-mail

• SMS for mobile messaging

• Modbus RTU-Modbus Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) communication protocol for Building

Management Systems over a RS-485 serial network (also called Modbus RTU RS-485)

• Modbus TCP-Modbus Transmission Control Protocol for Building Management Systems over an

Internet or LAN

• BACnet IP—BACnet over Internet Protocol for Building Management Systems over the Internet

or a LAN

• BACnet MSTP—BACnet Master-Slave/Token-Passing (MSTP) communication protocol for

Building Management Systems over an RS-485 serial network (also called BACnet MSTP RS-485)

The Liebert IntelliSlot Unity platform supports communication with up to two third-party protocols

simultaneously. Velocity V4 monitoring protocol is required to ensure monitoring connectivity with

the Liebert IntelliSlot IS-UNITY-DP. Velocity V4 protocol is standard in Liebert iCOM software

version PA1.04.033 and later.

Another communication option is the Liebert IntelliSlot SiteLink-E

Card (IS-485EXI), which

provides ground fault isolated connection to a Liebert SiteLink-E for monitoring and management.

The Liebert IS-485EXI is compatible with all Liebert iCOM software versions. See the Liebert Web

site for the latest supported protocols, monitoring reference information and SNMP MIBs:
