5.6.2 View Branch Data
The availability of branch information depends on the capabilities of the PDU. Branch information
and PDU information are the same for rack PDU’s without branch management; that information is
seen at the PDU view level.
To view data for a branch module:
• Select a branch in the bottom left corner. The selected letter will be highlighted.
• The screen displays information for the selected branch module. The example below shows data
for Branch A, one of two branches on PDU #1 that are communicating with the RPC BDM unit.
• See Table 16 for explanations of components that appear on the screen.
