3. Identify each sensor and actuator. See
Identifying Environmental
Sensors and Actuators
(on page 240).
4. The EMX should automatically manage the detected sensors and
actuators. Verify whether detected sensors and actuators are
managed. If not, have them managed. See
Managing
Environmental Sensors or Actuators
(on page 244).
5. Configure the sensors and actuators. See
Configuring
Environmental Sensors or Actuators
(on page 246). The steps
include:
a. Name the sensor or actuator.
b. If the connected sensor is a Raritan contact closure sensor,
specify an appropriate sensor type.
c. Mark the sensor or actuator's physical location on the rack or in
the room.
d. For a numeric sensor, configure the sensor's threshold,
hysteresis and assertion timeout settings.
Note: Numeric sensors show both numeric readings and sensor states to
indicate environmental or internal conditions while discrete (on/off)
sensors show sensor states only to indicate state changes. Only numeric
sensors have threshold settings. As for actuators, they are used to
control a device or system so they show state changes only.
Identifying Environmental Sensors and Actuators
Raritan has developed four types of environmental sensor packages -
DPX, DPX2, DPX3 and DX series. The ways to identify each type of
environmental sensor packages in the web interface are different.

DPX series: This type of environmental sensor package can be
identified through its serial number.

DPX2, DPX3 and DX series: This type of environmental sensor
package can be identified either through its serial number or through
its chain position, which consists of the sensor port and its location in
the daisy chain.
See
Matching the Serial Number
(on page 241) and
Matching the
Position
(on page 242) in the EMX User Guide.
Note: For detailed information on each sensor package, refer to the
Environmental Sensors Guide or Online Help on the Raritan website's
Support page ( http://www.raritan.com/support/ ).
