Specifying the Device Altitude
This command specifies your PX device's altitude above sea level (in
meters). You must specify the PX device's altitude above sea level if a
Raritan differential air pressure sensor is attached. This is because the
device's altitude is associated with the altitude correction factor. See
Altitude Correction Factors
(on page 645).
config:# pdu deviceAltitude <altitude>
Variables:
 <altitude> is an integer between 1 and 3000 meters.
Setting the Z Coordinate Format for Environmental Sensors
This command enables or disables the use of rack units for specifying
the height (Z coordinate) of environmental sensors.
config:# pdu externalSensorsZCoordinateFormat <option>
Variables:
 <option> is one of the options:
rackUnits
or
freeForm
.
Option Description
rackUnits The height of the Z coordinate is measured in
standard rack units. When this is selected, you
can type a numeric value in the rack unit to
describe the Z coordinate of any environmental
sensors or actuators.
freeForm Any alphanumeric string can be used for
specifying the Z coordinate.
Note: After determining the format for the Z coordinate, you can set a
value for it. See
Setting the Z Coordinate (on page 460).
