NetBotz Rack Monitor 200 Installation and Quick Configuration Manual

Introduction

Product Description

The American Power Conversion (APC®) NetBotz Rack Monitor 200 is a central hardware appliance for an APC environmental monitoring and control system. The rack-mountable Rack Monitor 200 includes six universal sensor ports for connecting temperature and humidity sensors, door switch sensors, and third-party dry contact sensors. Using other ports on the Rack Monitor 200, you can connect up to eight temperature and humidity sensors with digital display. To expand your system, you can connect up to twelve NetBotz Rack Sensor Pod 150s, which include six universal sensor ports each. The Rack Monitor 200 also includes ports that provide power to or allow control over other devices. And you can connect the Rack Monitor 200 to your building management system. Once installed, you monitor and control your system using a network or serial connection. (The Rack Monitor 200 cannot be connected to—or networked with—any other NetBotz appliances. It uses unique software that is not compatible with other NetBotz products.)

information.

 

Switched Outlet

Provides power to a device at a total maximum amperage of 10 A. Activates a connected

 

 

device when configured events occur. (For example, a fan may be connected to this outlet,

 

 

and the outlet may be configured to turn on when a high threshold violation occurs for a

 

 

temperature sensor.)

 

Voltage Output

Provides 12 Vdc or 24 Vdc (75 mA) to a connected device.

 

Relay Output

Used for connecting relay-controlled external devices.

 

Peripheral Port

Not used.

 

Universal sensor

Used for connecting APC sensors and third-party dry contact sensors. (See “How to

 

ports

Connect Sensors to Universal Sensor Ports” on page 10 for a list of applicable APC

 

 

sensors.) Third-party dry contact sensors require a NetBotz Dry Contact Cable

 

 

(NBES0304).

How to Install the Rack Monitor 200

Note: Install the Rack Monitor 200 in an environment compatible with the environmental specifications on page 23.

Note: When you install the Rack Monitor 200 in the rack, do not create a hazardous condition due to uneven mechanical loading. For example, do not use the Rack Monitor 200 as a shelf.

You can install the Rack Monitor 200 in the front or the rear of the rack using the rack-mount option, which requires 1 U of rack space. If using an APC NetShelter® VX or SX rack, you also have the option to use the toolless peg-mounts, which do not use any U-spaces.

Toolless peg-mount installation

Note: The toolless peg-mount installation is only available with a NetShelter VX or SX rack or enclosure.

Caution: To avoid equipment damage, use only the hardware provided when installing the power cord retainer bracket.

1. Install the power cord retainer bracket as shown.
