1.Select Animated.

2.Select the sensor-type you want to appear. A window prompts you to wait while the necessary images load into the animation.

3.Select the date range (up to 30 days) for your animation. The default date represents the last 24 hours.

a.Open the calendar window for the Start time.

b.Select the month. Use either the forward or back arrows to change the month, or select the month from the menu.

c.Select the year from the menu.

d.Select the day from the calendar view.

e.Close the calendar window.

f.Repeat the previous steps for the End time.

4.Select Refresh to update the image or to change the animation after changing the sensor-type or date range.

When loading is complete, the application displays a color animation of the distribution of the current readings for the selected sensor type within the specified date range.

The animation plays at the rate of one frame per second, and lasts for a maximum of two minutes. A counter at the lower right provides the currently displayed image, total number of images selected for the animation, and the number of images available for the selected time period. It also displays the progression through the images.

Directly below and to the right of the image of the zone, the time stamps for each captured image appear as that image appears on the screen.

Animation controls appear on the bottom left of the page. As the animation plays, the slider on the progress bar moves to the right to show the progression of frames. When the animation ends, the slider returns to its starting position at the far left.

At any time while the animation is playing, or after it ends, the following animation control options are available:

•Select Play to begin the animation or restart the animation.

•Select Pause to freeze the animation.

•Select either Previous or Next to move forward or backward, respectively, in the animation.

•Select Stop to halt the animation and return to the first frame in the series.

•Position the mouse over the slider on the progress bar to drag the slider to the right or left. Release the slider to view a particular frame.

•Drag the slider quickly to play the animation quickly.

Data Center EnvIronmental Edge specifications

HP Data Center Environmental Edge is a cutting-edge solution designed to optimize the efficiency and sustainability of data center operations. In an era where data centers consume enormous power and generate significant carbon footprints, HP's Environmental Edge provides an innovative approach to managing these challenges.

One of the main features of the Environmental Edge is its advanced cooling solutions. Traditional cooling systems often operate inefficiently, leading to wasted energy and excessive costs. HP's system incorporates smart cooling technologies that adapt to the specific thermal demands of each data center room. By utilizing a combination of hot aisle/cold aisle containment and dynamic airflow management, the Environmental Edge ensures that cold air is effectively directed where it’s needed most, significantly reducing the amount of energy required to maintain optimal temperatures.

Another key characteristic of the HP Data Center Environmental Edge is its integration with IoT (Internet of Things) technologies. The solution employs a network of sensors that continuously monitor environmental conditions, including temperature, humidity, and air quality. This data is processed in real-time to provide actionable insights, allowing data center operators to make informed decisions regarding energy use and equipment deployment.

HP’s Environmental Edge also emphasizes modularity and scalability. As business needs evolve, data centers require flexible solutions that can grow with them. HP's approach incorporates modular components that can be easily integrated or upgraded, allowing businesses to expand their infrastructure without significant overhauls. This adaptability not only lowers upfront costs but also reduces waste, making it a more sustainable choice for organizations committed to environmental responsibility.

Sustainability is further enhanced through HP’s commitment to energy efficiency. The Environmental Edge utilizes advanced energy management software that calculates power consumption in real-time. This ensures that resources are used efficiently and helps organizations meet their green energy targets. Additionally, the system promotes the use of renewable energy sources, allowing data centers to minimize their reliance on fossil fuels.

In summary, the HP Data Center Environmental Edge stands out with its innovative cooling solutions, integration of IoT technologies, modular design, and energy efficiency initiatives. These features work together to create an intelligent, adaptive, and sustainable environment for data centers, addressing the pressing need for eco-friendly practices in the tech industry. As organizations navigate the complexities of modern data management, HP's Environmental Edge provides the tools needed to thrive in both performance and sustainability.
