Power Output
The Power Output section lists each of the 9 on-board and any optional installed power distribution outputs
showing their Name, State (ON or OFF), and the Current that connected devices are drawing, and the Fuse status
of each (OK or BLOWN).
EventSensor Status
This status menu is
accessed by typing SENSORS or a “!” at the command prompt followed by <Enter>. It serves
as a quick-access menu to all of the EventSensors installed in your SiteBoss, and allows you to read their current
status. Configuration of these sensors must still be done in the appropriate setup menu. Below is a screenshot of a
SiteBoss 571 configuration. Your setup will likely differ significantly depending on installed sensors and slot cards.
