Protection tab
Use this tab to set the thresholds and alarms that provide disaster prevention and other recovery
functions for each port.
• Port : Port name and status
• Grey background : Port is powered OFF
• Green background : Port is powered ON
• Current : Real time current in milliampère
• Maximum : Maximum current in milliampère since the last reset
• Reset : Resets the Maximum value. Hover your mouse over this value to see a timestamp
that indicates when the maximum value was measured.

Warning Level: When this threshold (in milliampère) is exceeded an SNMP Trap is sent (if
the SNMP checkbox for this port is checked)
• Off Level : when this threshold (in milliampère) is exceeded the port is automatically
powered off and an SNMP trap is sent (if the SNMP checkbox for this port is checked)
• Temp Off : When this temperature threshold (in °C) is exceeded by the internal
temperature sensor the port is automatically powered off and an SNMP trap is sent (if
the SNMP checkbox for this port is checked)
• SNMP : When checked SNMP Traps are enabled for this port
• Priority
o
The PDU looks at the thresholds of each port before checking the SUM. So, if a port
exceeds its Off Level threshold that port is powered off, followed by a check of the
"SUM" Off Level threshold.
o
When the Off threshold in the "SUM" row is exceeded, the device looks at the
individual port priority settings to determine which port to power down first,
second,... even when it wasn't that port that caused the threshold to be exceeded. A
lower number means a higher priority (1 is the highest priority, 8 the lowest).
o
If 2 ports have the same priority level, the PDU will determine which port had the
highest current increase and will power off that port. If no current increase is found,
the port that was powered on last is powered off.
• Delay On : sets the startup delay (in seconds) after the PDU has been powered off and
back on (Toggling a port's state manually ignores this setting).
Voltage table
• Value : Current voltage measured
• Warning Min : When the measured voltage goes below this threshold an SNMP trap is
sent (with SNMP checked)
• Warning Max : When the measured voltage exceeds this threshold an SNMP trap is sent
(with SNMP checked)
• SNMP : When checked, SNMP traps are sent when the measured voltage is below the
minimum or above the maximum threshold
After editing the settings on the Protection tab, press the Save Data button. A pop-up will appear
after the changes have been successfully saved.
