Asset Management
Configure the asset management settings only when an asset sensor is
physically connected to the EMX device.
Note: To set up an asset management system, see Connecting Asset
Management Sensors (on page 25).
Configuring the Asset Sensor
The EMX cannot detect how many rack units (tag ports) a connected
asset management sensor supports, so you must provide this
information manually.
When you add an asset management sensor, you name it. Additionally,
you can provide a description to identify each asset sensor.
The customized name is followed by the label in parentheses.
Note: In this context, the label refers to the port number where the asset
sensor is connected. In EMX, a Feature port is identified with a
combination of the name "Asset Strip" and the port number.
To configure an asset sensor:
1. Connect the asset sensor to the EMX if it is not already.
2. Expand the Feature Ports folder in the navigation tree.
3. Click the desired asset sensor in the left pane. The page specific to
that asset sensor opens in the right pane, showing the asset sensor
settings and information of all rack units (tag ports).
Note: You can also access this dialog by double-clicking the asset
sensor shown on the Dashboard page.
4. Click Setup in the Settings section. The Setup of Asset Strip dialog
appears.
5. Enter a name of the asset sensor.
6. In the "Number of Rack Units" field, type the total number of rack
units supported by the AMS. Default is 48.
7. Here, rack units are the number of asset management tag ports on
the asset management strip. For example, if the AMS has 48 asset
management tag ports, it supports up to 48 rack units on a cabinet.
8. Determine how to number all rack units on the asset sensor by
selecting an option in the Numbering Mode.

Top-Down: The rack units are numbered in the ascending order
from the highest to the lowest rack unit.
