Polycom RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/2000/4000

Temperature Thresholds

On each RMX card or there are temperature sensors that are placed near specific components on the card. In the Hardware Monitor you can view the properties of each card together with their temperature statuses. By right clicking on any card and viewing the cards Properties, the Active Alarms tab displays all the card sensors, their statuses and lists each sensor’s temperature specifications. When the temperature on the cards initially rises, a fault could be triggered and can viewed in the System Alerts, Faults List. Load issues can arise when the system nears the maximum conference mark or high port capacity occurs on

an RMX resulting in Upper Major or Upper Critical faults.

With an Upper Major alarm activation it is recommended to perform the following checks: Fans/fan tray functions, Overall System Ventilation and Filter (top, bottom & sides free and no dust) and Room temperature (cool). When no apparent cause can be found, then contact your next level of support.

However, only when the Upper Critical threshold is passed does the RMX system as a precaution initiate a system shutdown.

With version 7.6.1, changes have made to fan’s RPM mechanism, enabling more effective responses to temperature changes on the RMX system. Upper Major and Upper Critical threshold values have sometimes also been altered, allowing for more efficient fan RPM and effective temperature management the RMX.
