Shown Element Type 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).
Default Voltage Number field
The nominal input voltage feeding the power device.
NOTE: Some power devices do not have the capability to read the
real input voltage using proper voltage sensors.
Power Factor Number field
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 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
Overcurrent
Protection
Checkbox
Set whether overcurrent protection is off or on. When it is on,
exceeding the high critical threshold will prevent the PDU from
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.
