SITEMANAGER 6 Configuration
For this configuration step, open the following menu:
The SITEMANAGER 6 offers a significant difference to the CS141 with its optional modules. Due to the connection, the UPS
interface COM1 is a MINI-DIN connection, the serial 9-pin SUB-D connection is used internally elsewhere to map the additional
functionality.
Sensors are important for SITEMANAGER 6 because they provide a lot of information about the environment, which can be
relevant for the operation of systems. This includes, among other things, humidity, air pressure, temperatures, etc: If electrical
devices are operated outside the regular operating environments, they can be damaged or, in the worst case, destroyed. With
sensors, the SITEMANAGER 6 is capable to trigger countermeasures before these devices are harmed by environmental
conditions.
To do this task, one of the special features of the SITEMANAGER 6 is the possibility to manage up to 8 sensors,
analogue and digital inputs and to assign specific system events to them. Furthermore, the SITEMANAGER 6 is the only device
in the CS141 family that offers 4 output relays for switching external systems or defining switching states for target devices.
Connecting a sensor
Connecting a sensor is similar to the GENEREX sensor manager - on the back of the SITEMANAGER, you will find the
corresponding connection ports to the left of the terminal strip.
When connecting the sensors, do not confuse the sensor inputs with the input sockets of the BACS-BUS - the plugs of the
sensor cables are assembled differently and can therefore mechanically damage the BACS - Bus - sockets.
In total, you can connect up to 8 sensors - 2 channels are assigned to each sensor input. Basically, you can distinguish between
two different sensors:
-
The Single Sensor
This sensor provides a second port to connect a second sensor.
-
Der Combined sensor
This sensor consists of two different sensors which are housed together in one housing. In this case, both channels
are assigned to a sensor input for the sensor.
When connecting, please ensure that the sensors are connected correctly in series to avoid running into a "missing sensor" -
issue during configuration.
