Introduction
In this manual, we’ll cover the main features and basic configuration of the SP2+ and the setup of
notifications and the explanation of events will be in another manual.
What is the SP2+ and Thermal Map?
The SP2+ is a high speed, accurate, intelligent monitoring device, featuring a completely embedded
host and operating system. The
SP2+ is a complete redesign of the world’s best-selling
environmental monitoring platform, 3 years in the making with all new hardware and software.
We’ve combined the low cost and simplicity of use of the SP2, along with many advanced features of
our securityProbe platform.
The thermal map combines 4 sensors into one sensor port on the SP2+, specially designed to
monitor the air entering and leaving a computer rack. The Thermal Rack Map is performed from the
AKCess Pro Server using the Thermal Sensor connected to the SP2+. The Thermal Map Sensors
monitor the temperature and humidity at different points of the rack.
