Description

ID:

Heading

Static heading shows current IPDU name and port assignment.

Model:

Heading

Shows the make and model of IPDU at the designated port.

ID

Text field

Enter whatever name you wish for this IPDU.

Polling Rate

Number field

Enter the polling time (how often the console server accesses the

IPDU for updates) in milliseconds. Default is 30000ms.

 

 

Power Cycle Interval

Number field

Set the Power Cycle Interval in seconds. This interval is the time the

PDU is turned off during a power cycle.

 

 

Enable Syslog

Checkbox

Click this checkbox to enable/disable syslog logging (Cyclades

IPDUs only).

 

 

Enable Buzzer

Checkbox

Click this checkbox to enable/disable IPDU alarm buzzer (Cyclades

IPDUs only).

 

 

 

 

The nominal input voltage feeding the power device.

Default Voltage

Number field

NOTE: Some power devices do not have the capability to read the

 

 

 

 

real input voltage using proper voltage sensors.

 

 

The ratio of the real power to the apparent power; a number

 

 

between 0 and 1 that is frequently expressed as a percentage. Real

Power Factor

Number field

power is the capacity of the circuit for performing work in a particular

 

 

time. Apparent power is the product of the current and voltage of the

 

 

circuit.

Display

Dropdown

Set up the display orientation: Normal/Current or Inverted/Current.

Display Cycle

Number field

Set the display cycle in seconds.

PDU Thresholds

Number field

Enter the current threshold for IPDU: High Critical, High Warning,

Low Warning and Low Critical.

 

 

Software

 

Set whether overcurrent protection is off or on. When it is on,

Overcurrent

Checkbox

exceeding the high critical threshold will prevent the PDU from

Protection

 

turning on outlets until the problem is corrected.

Cold Start Delay

Number field

Enter the time in seconds a PDU waits to turn on outlets after the

PDU receives power.

 

 

Banks thresholds

Number field

Enter for each bank the current threshold: High Critical, High

Warning, Low Warning and Low Critical.
