RACKPDU

From HSYCO
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The APC by Schneider Electric Rack Power Distribution Unit (PDU) may be used as a stand-alone, network- manageable power distribution device or up to four devices can be connected together using one network connection. The Rack PDU provides real-time remote monitoring of connected loads.

The HSYCO RACKPDU driver supports the AP88XX and AP78XXB Metered models.

PDU Configuration

In order to be able to control the device with HSYCO SERVER, remote access to the command line interface via SSH must be enabled.

HSYCO Configuration

Add a RACKPDU I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:

Communication

  • IP Address: the IP address of the device
  • IP Port: TCP/IP port to use (defaults to 22)
  • User: the SSH user (defaults to "apc")
  • Password: the SSH password (defaults to "apc").


High Availability

  • Shutdown when inactive: defaults to false.

Options

ID Default Values Description
gui false true enable support for the UISET actions
false disable UI support
altitude 0 integer number the station's installation altitude above mean sea level.

This optional parameter is used to convert the measured local atmospheric pressure to mean sea level pressure (MSLP).

The conversion function takes into account the altitude and local temperature.

If this paramter is not set or set to 0, the measured pressure value will be returned unmodified.

Datapoints

All measured values returned as datapoints use the units as set in the WXT520. The unit is not returned in the datapoint value.
