Advanced View: Monitoring Your Environment

Use Advanced View to view sensor readings, view camera images, graph collected sensor data, and view active and resolved alert conditions. You can also create, view, and delete maps for use in the Map view.

Viewing Sensor Readings and Status

To view sensor readings, select a device that includes sensors from the Navigation pane. The Sensor Data pane automatically updates with sensor information for the device you selected. Any sensors with an alert status have a background color of red.

If the device has a large number of sensors, the sensors are divided into sensor sets. If the sensors are divided into sets, you have the following options:

To display all of the sensors for the selected device, select All Sensors from the Set drop-down list.

To view only the sensors in a sensor set, select the sensor set from the Set drop-down list.

Note: For an air flow sensor, data must be accumulated for 15 to 30 minutes before accurate air flow readings are available. After power is applied to the device, air flow sensor data appears as N/A until enough data is collected.

Alerting Sensors

Selecting the Alerting Sensors entry in the Navigation pane provides a list of all local or pod-shared sensors that are currently generating an alert. The alerting sensors are listed in the Sensor Data pane.

Security Sensors

Selecting the Security Sensors entry in the Navigation pane provides a list of all security-related sensors that are currently generating an alert in the Sensor Data pane. Security sensors include all Door sensors, Handle sensors, and Lock sensors connected to a Rack Access Pod 170, as well as any Door, Handle, or Lock sensors connected to a pod-shared Rack Access PX-HID appliance.

Controlling Rack Access sensors

If you have an SP170 Rack Access Pod connected to your appliance, you can lock and unlock rack locks and enable or disable card reader hardware using the Web Client or Advanced View. The user account must have “Sensor” or “Administrator” privileges in order to access this functionality.

To lock or unlock a rack lock in Advanced View:

1.From the Navigation pane, select a Rack Access Pod.

2.Right-click a lock sensor in the Sensor Data pane.

3.Select Lock (n): Set to “Unlocked”. The reading will change to Unlocked and the menu item

will read Lock (n): Set to ‘Locked’. The lock will automatically relock in 10 seconds by default. This setting can be changed in the Rack Access Settings configuration dialog.
