simply recording the report in a log. These sensors can be either internal
or environmental sensors as listed below.

Inlet sensors, including RMS current, RMS voltage, active power,
apparent power, power factor and active energy.

Outlet sensors, including RMS current, RMS voltage, active power,
apparent power, power factor, active energy and outlet state (for
outlet-switching capable PDUs only).

Peripheral device sensors, which can be any Raritan environmental
sensor packages connected to the PX3, such as temperature or
humidity sensors.
