Configuration Options
•
Temperature Calibration:
Used to calibrate the unit's internal temperature sensing
abilities. To calibrate the temperature, place a thermometer inside your equipment
rack, in a location that usually experiences the highest temperature. After a few
minutes, take a reading from the thermometer, and then key the reading into the
configuration menu. In the Web Browser Interface, the temperature is entered
at the System Parameters menu, in the Temperature Calibration field; in the Text
Interface, the temperature is entered in a submenu of the System Parameters menu,
accessed via the Temperature Calibration item. (Default = undefined.)
•
Log Configuration:
Configures the Audit Log, Alarm Log, Temperature Log and
Current Metering Log. For more information on the VMR/NPS's event logging
functions, please refer to Section 6.2.3. (Defaults: Audit Log = On without Syslog,
Alarm Log = On without Syslog, Temperature Log = On, Current Metering
Log = On.)
Notes:
• The Current Log is not available on NPS units; NPS units do not support
current monitoring.
• The Temperature Log is not available on VMR units; instead, temperature
values for the VMR unit can be displayed in the Text Interface via the Current
Metering Log or in the Web Browser Interface via the Current Metering
Status Screen.
• The Audit Log will create a record of all port connection/disconnection and
login/logout activity at the VMR/NPS unit.
• The Alarm Log will create a record of each instance where the Invalid Access
Alarm is triggered or cleared at the VMR/NPS unit.
• The Temperature Log will create a record of ambient rack temperature
over time.
•
Callback Security:
Enables / configures the Callback Security Function as
described in Section 6.2.4. In order for this feature to function, a Callback number
must also be defined for each desired user account as described in Section 6.4.

Notes:
• In the Text Interface, Callback Security Parameters are defined via a submenu
of the Systems Parameters Menu, which is accessed via the Callback
Security item.
• In the Web Browser Interface, Callback Security Parameters are defined via
the "Callback Security" link in the General Parameters fly-out menu.
•
Front Panel Buttons:
