Mass Configuration: Sensor and Alert Settings

112 InfraStruXure Central 4.0 User’s Reference

Whenever you start a Mass Configuration task, the first window that is displayed shows a table of devices

on which the selected task can be performed. This table features a Status column, in which the current

status of each device is displayed. If a device is currently in an offline state the Status field for the device

will read “Offline,” but you will still be able to enact Mass Configuration tasks on the device, just as if the

device were online. When a Mass Configuration task is enacted against an offline device, the Status field

will show that the task did not complete and is being retired automatically, and a small image of a clock is

displayed to indicate that the configuration request against this device is currently in a pending state.

If InfraStruXure Central is unable to carry out a mass configuration task because a device is in an Offline

state, it adds the task to the Pending Requests list (“Management Device Job Control” on page 88).

Managing BotzWare Version 1.x Devices

The Pod Sharing task enables you to use NetBotz 500 devices to receive data from legacy NetBotz

devices running BotzWare 1.x (including RackBotz and WallBotz 300, 303, 310, 400, and 410 devices).

Once a NetBotz 500 is configured to access these legacy models they are treated exactly like other shared

pods or devices, providing alert and sensor data exactly as if they were directly connected to the NetBotz

500. For more information on Pod Sharing, see “Pod Sharing” on page 203.

About Sensor and Alert Settings Tasks

The majority of tasks that are available from the Sensor & Alert Settings pane enable you to configure the

sensors that are built into or connected to your NetBotz devices. Each sensor threshold configuration task

is named for the type of sensor with which the sensor will be used (temperature, air flow, humidity, and so

forth).

The sensors used by your devices fall into two categories: Numeric sensors and state sensors. Numeric

sensors report sensor readings as a current value within a broad range of potential values defined by a

minimum and maximum value, such as temperature or humidity readings. State sensors, on the other

hand, report sensor readings as one of two mutually exclusive states, such as a door being “open” or

“closed” or motion being “detected” or “not detected.” Due to the differences in the kind of data reported

by these two sensor types, the thresholds that can be applied to each sensor type differ greatly.

Each sensor threshold configuration task is named either a) for the type of sensor with which the sensor

will be used (temperature, air flow, humidity, and so forth) or b) with a general name that describes the

sort of sensor that is configured using the task. The sensor configuration tasks are:

• Air Flow Settings (to configure air flow sensors integrated with your devices)

• Amp Detector Settings (to configure amp detector sensors connected your devices)

• Audio Settings (to configure audio sensors integrated with your devices)

• Dew Point Settings (to configure dew point sensors integrated with your devices)

• Door Settings (to configure door switch sensors connected to your devices)

• Dry Contact Settings (to configure dry contact sensors connected to your devices)

• Humidity Settings (to configure humidity sensors integrated with or connected to your devices)

• Motion Sensor Settings (to configure the camera motion sensors integrated with your devices)

• Power (VA) Settings: Use the Power (VA) Settings to configure thresholds for your device volt

amperage sensors.

• Power (Volts) Settings: Use the Power (Volts) Settings to configure thresholds for your device

voltage sensors.
