IMediaChassis Series
12
HARDWARE FEATURES
ALARM RESET, LAST GASP, AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The iMediaChassis series supports modular power supply modules, so that worn
parts can be replaced without having to send an entire unit in for repair. Keeping
fans functional ensures that the modules will operate within their temperature
specifications.
ALARM RESET BUTTON
When one power supply module malfunctions, an audible alarm sounds
indicating the loss of the power supply module. The alarm can be silenced by
pressing the Alarm Reset Button, located next to the power connector on the
power supply module. If this occurs, remove and replace the power supply
module immediately. (LEDs on the Management Module and the power supply
itself also indicate power supply failures.) After stopping the alarm, remove the
power supply and replace the power supply module.
LAST GASP ALARM
The iMediaChassis series includes the Last Gasp trap feature, “Remote Chassis
Down”, which sends a Trap when the following occurs:
• Both power supply modules malfunction
• Both power supply modules are powered down
• When the AC line fails
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The iMediaChassis/6 includes a temperature monitoring gauge with a heat
sensor on the backplane of the chassis. Users define a threshold for chassis
temperature via SNMP. If the chassis’ temperature rises above the specified
level, the SNMP agent sends a trap (configured in iView²) to the administrator.
There is also an LED indicator on the SNMP Management Module for chassis
temperature.
