Temperature probes are available as an accessory from your Eaton sales
representative.
Switched ePDUs have four RJ-45 ports on the face, one of which is labeled
“Temp J29”. This port supports three types of external probes:
S T1 probe (contains a temperature sensor wired to the Temperature 1 input)
S T1H1 probe (the same as T1 probe, plus a humidity sensor)
S T2 probe (contains a temperature sensor wired to the Temperature 2 input).
The T1 or T1H1 probe can be used simultaneously with a T2 probe by connecting
them to the Temp port through an RJ-45 “Y” adapter (also available from Eaton).
Contact your Eaton sales representative for more information.
After connecting a probe containing a temperature sensor, the sensor must be
enabled in the software. If a temperature sensor is enabled in the software, but an
actual sensor is not connected, a temperature reading of 249.9°F or 121.1°C displays.
Temperature sensors also have configurable thresholds and can be set up to control
outlets or groups based on the thresholds. To configure these settings, enter the
appropriate sensor number from the menu and follow the prompts.
Table 7. Temperature Sensor Configuration
Setting Description
Sensor Name A maximum of 20 characters.
The sensor name displays in the interface and logs.
Enabled A sensor must be enabled before the readings display.
High Threshold When the readings cross above this threshold, e-mail alerts and/or SNMP traps
may be sent, depending on the Log Manager and SNMP Settings configuration.
Set Fahrenheit or Celsius in Unit Configuration.
Low Threshold When the readings cross below this threshold, e-mail alerts and/or SNMP traps
may be sent, depending on the Log Manager and SNMP Settings configuration.
Set Fahrenheit or Celsius in Unit Configuration.
Control
Outlet/Group
If the sensor is to report only the temperature readings, set to No. If set to Yes, this
prompt continues with an opportunity to select an outlet or group to control.
NOTE If an outlet or group name is later changed, control from the sensors or
switches do not work until they are reconfigured with the new name.
State On or Off.
If the setting is On, the outlet or group turns on when the temperature is above the
upper threshold or below the lower threshold; the outlet or group turns off when
the temperature is between the upper and lower thresholds.
If the setting is Off, the outlet or group turns off when the temperature is above the
upper threshold or below the lower threshold; the outlet or group turns on when
the temperature is between the upper and lower thresholds.
