3. Select a port and enter or view the following information:
Dev Port
Displays the number of the SLC port.
Device Port Name
Displays the name of the SLC port.
Curr Temp
Current temperature (degrees Celsius) on the device the sensor is monitoring.
Low Temp
Enter the temperature (degrees Celsius) permitted on the monitored device below
which the SLC 8000 advanced console manager sends a trap.
High Temp
Enter the temperature (degrees Celsius) permitted on the monitored device above
which the SLC unit sends a trap.
Use °F
Display and set the temperature for this device in degrees Fahrenheit, instead of
Celsius, which is the default.
Humidity (%)
Current relative humidity on the device the sensor is monitoring.
Low Humidity
Enter the relative humidity permitted on the device the sensor is monitoring below
which the sensor sends a trap to the SLC advanced console manager.
High Humidity
Enter the highest relative acceptable humidity permitted on the device above which
the sensor sends a trap to the SLC unit.
Contact
Displays the current contact closure status of the sensor, if supported by the
connected Sensorsoft device. If the Sensorsoft device does not report a contact
status, N/A will be displayed. If Traps are enabled for the Sensorsoft device, an
slcEventDevicePortDeviceContactChanged
trap will be sent when
the contact state changes from Open to Closed and from Closed to Open.
Traps
Select to indicate whether the SLC 8000 unit should send a trap or configured
Event Alert when the sensor detects an out-of-range configured threshold.
