3.3.2 PDU Explorer Overview

PDU Explorer is Web-based software that displays a hierarchical view of the system. The PDU

Explorer permits browsing components starting at the PDU level, through to the branches of the

PDU, and down to the receptacles of those branches. See 4.0 - Accessing an RPC2

Communications Module via the Web Interface for details on using PDU Explorer.

The available information depends on the type of MPH2; units that do not have branch or receptacle

management will not have information about those components (see Table 6).

The PDU Explorer home screen shows the System level. The tabs in the lower half of the screen

change depending on the level selected. When the Sensor level is selected in the navigation tree, for

instance, the Measurements tab is not shown.

3.3.3 Device Explorer Overview

Device Explorer is Web-based software that displays the user-assigned labels (names) of each

receptacle to provide a load-centric method to access status and metering information about the

associated load or connected device. To view information on a specific PDU, see 4.0 - Accessing an

RPC2 Communications Module via the Web Interface for detailed information on using Device

Explorer.

The RPC2 communications module presents only available data. If the MPH2 does not have branch

and receptacle management, the RPC2 will display grayed-out entries and that information will not

be shown (see Table 6).
