Connect external sensors

To install an external sensor, plug the sensor into an available External Port on any Sensor Pod 150, Sensor Pod 155, or Sensor Pod 120.

Note: When connecting a sensor to a Sensor Pod 120, be sure to note both the sensor pod serial number, located on the back of the pod, and the number of the External Port on the pod when you connect the cable. You will need this information when you use the sensor pod task to configure your appliance. The External Port number is printed above the port on the pod.

The female connectors on the NetBotz 120 Sensor Pod units are Version 2, NetBotz DIN standard connectors and can only accept male, Version 2, NetBotz DIN Sensor Cables. The new Version 3 products use standard RJ-45 connectors.

If the external sensor cable is not long enough, use an Extension Cable for External Sensors, available in 15 m (50 ft) and 30 m (100 ft) lengths from your APC reseller, to lengthen the cable.

When you have finished installing external sensors, use the Sensor Pods task to configure the appliance to use the external sensor. Once you configure your appliance, an additional temperature sensor appears in the Sensor Data pane when the pod to which the temperature sensor is connected is selected from the Navigation pane. Use the Advanced View Sensor Pods task to specify thresholds for this external sensor.
