Introduction
Product Description
Features
The Schneider Electric InRow RD 100-series and InRow RD 200-series cooling units are modular cooling units that require only one-half the width of a standard enclosure and can be placed in a data center row. The InRow RD cooling unit provides full management capabilities over a network using Telnet, Secure SHell (SSH), HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP), HTTP over Secure Sockets Layer (HTTPS), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Secure CoPy (SCP), Modbus, and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) versions 1 and 3. The InRow RD cooling unit also provides the following features:
•Provides temperature monitoring and adapts its cooling output to rectify fluctuations in temperature
•Supports group control, which prevents demand-fighting and provides redundancy
•Enables you to shut down the cooling unit remotely over the network
•Provides output contact monitoring
•Provides the ability to export a user configuration (.ini) file from a configured card to one or more unconfigured cards
•Supports using a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or server to provide the network (TCP/ IP) values for the InRow RD cooling unit
•Supports using the Remote Monitoring Service (RMS)
•Provides data and event logs
•Enables you to configure notification through event logging (by the InRow RD cooling unit and Syslog), e-mail, and SNMP traps. You can configure notification for single events or groups of events, based on the severity level or category of events
•Provides a selection of security protocols for authentication and encryption
Initial setup
You must define three TCP/IP settings for the InRow RD cooling unit before it can operate on the network:
•IP address of the InRow RD cooling unit
•Subnet mask
•IP address of the default gateway
NOTE: Do not use the loopback address (127.0.0.1) as the default gateway. Doing so disables the card. You must then log on using a serial connection and reset TCP/IP settings to their defaults.
To configure the TCP/IP settings, see the InRow RD Installation Manual.
For detailed information on how to use a DHCP server to configure the TCP/IP settings at the InRow RD cooling unit, see “TCP/IP and Communication Settings” on page 30.

Internal Management Features
Overview
Use the Web interface or the control console interface to manage the InRow RD cooling unit.
For more information about the internal user interfaces, see “Web Interface” on page 13 and “Control Console” on page 7.
Access priority for logging on
Only one user at a time can log on to the InRow RD cooling unit. The priority for access, beginning with the highest priority, is as follows:
•Local access to the control console from a computer with a direct serial connection to the InRow RD cooling unit.
•Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH) access to the control console from a remote computer.
•Web access, either directly or through the StruxureWare Data Center Expert.
See “SNMP” on page 38 for information about how SNMP access to the InRow RD cooling unit is controlled.
Types of user accounts
The InRow RD cooling unit has three levels of access (Administrator, Device User, and Read-Only User), which are protected by user name and password requirements.
•An Administrator can use all the menus in the Web interface and control console. The default user name and password are both apc.
•A Device User can access only the following:
–In the Web interface, the menus on the Group and Unit tabs and the event and data logs, accessible under the Events and Data headings on the left navigation menu of the Logs tab.
–In the control console, the equivalent features and options.
The default user name is device, and the default password is apc.
•A Read-Only User has the following restricted access:
–Access through the Web interface only. You must use the Web interface to configure values for the Read-Only User.
–Access to the same tabs and menus as a Device User, but without the capability to change configurations, control devices, delete data, or use file transfer options. Links to configuration options are visible but disabled, and the event and data logs display no button to clear the log.
The default user name is readonly, and the default password is apc.
To set User Name and Password values for the three account types, see “Setting user access” on page 27.

How to Recover from a Lost Password
You can use a local computer, a computer that connects to the InRow RD cooling unit or other device through the serial port, to access the control console.
1.At the local computer, select a serial port, and disable any service that uses it.
2.Connect the provided serial cable from the selected port on the computer to the configuration port at the InRow RD cooling unit.
3.Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal®) and configure the selected port for 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
4.Press ENTER, repeatedly if necessary, to display the User Name prompt. If you are unable to display the User Name prompt, verify the following:
–The serial port is not in use by another application.
–The terminal settings are correct as specified in step 3.
–The correct cable is being used as specified in step 2.
5.Press the Reset button. The Status LED will flash alternately orange and green. Press the Reset button a second time immediately while the LED is flashing to reset the user name and password to their defaults temporarily.
6.Press ENTER as many times as necessary to redisplay the User Name prompt, then use the default, apc, for the user name and password. (If you take longer than 30 seconds to log on after the User Name prompt is redisplayed, you must repeat step 5 and log on again.)
7.From the Control Console menu, select System, then User Manager.
8.Select Administrator, and change the User Name and Password settings, both of which are now defined as apc.
9.Press CTRL+C, log off, reconnect any serial cable you disconnected, and restart any service you disabled.

Watchdog Features
Overview
To detect internal problems and recover from unanticipated inputs, the InRow RD cooling unit uses internal, system-wide watchdog mechanisms. When it restarts to recover from an internal problem, a System: Warmstart event is recorded in the event log.
Network interface watchdog mechanism
The InRow RD cooling unit implements internal watchdog mechanisms to protect itself from becoming inaccessible over the network. For example, if the InRow RD cooling unit does not receive any network traffic for 9.5 minutes (either direct traffic, such as SNMP, or broadcast traffic, such as an Address Resolution Protocol [ARP] request), it assumes that there is a problem with its network interface and restarts.
Resetting the network timer
To ensure that the InRow RD cooling unit does not restart if the network is quiet for 9.5 minutes, the InRow RD cooling unit attempts to contact the default gateway every 4.5 minutes. If the gateway is present, it responds to the InRow RD cooling unit, and that response restarts the 9.5-minute timer. If your application does not require or have a gateway, specify the IP address of a computer that is running on the network most of the time and is on the same subnet. The network traffic of that computer will restart the 9.5-minute timer frequently enough to prevent the InRow RD cooling unit from restarting.

Control Console
How To Log On
Overview
You can use either a local (serial) connection, or a remote (Telnet or SSH) connection with a computer on the same network (LAN) as the InRow RD cooling unit to access the control console.
Use case-sensitive user name and password entries to log on (by default, apc and apc for an Administrator, or device and apc for a Device User). A Read-Only User has no access to the control console.
If you cannot remember your user name or password, see “How to Recover from a Lost Password” on page 4.
Remote access to the control console
You can access the control console through Telnet or Secure SHell (SSH). Telnet is enabled by default. Enabling SSH disables Telnet.
To enable or disable these access methods:
•In the Web interface, on the Administration tab, select Network on the top menu bar, and then the access option under Console on the left navigation menu.
•In the control console, use the Telnet/SSH option of the Network menu.
Telnet for basic access Telnet provides the basic security of authentication by user name and password, but not the high-security benefits of encryption.
To use Telnet to access the control console:
1.From a computer on the same network as the InRow RD cooling unit, at a command prompt, type telnet and the System IP address for the InRow RD cooling unit (for example, telnet 139.225.6.133, when the InRow RD cooling unit uses the default Telnet port of 23), and press ENTER.
If the InRow RD cooling unit uses a non-default port number (from 5000 to 32768), you must include a colon or a space, depending on your Telnet client, between the IP address (or DNS name) and the port number.
2.Enter the user name and password (by default, apc and apc for an Administrator, or device and apc for a Device User).
SSH for high-security access: If you use the high security of SSL for the Web interface, use Secure SHell (SSH) for access to the control console. SSH encrypts user names, passwords and transmitted data. The interface, user accounts, and user access rights are the same whether you access the control console through SSH or Telnet, but to use SSH, you must first configure SSH and have an SSH client program installed on your computer.

Local access to the control console
For local access, use a computer that connects to the InRow RD cooling unit or other device through the serial port, to access the control console:
1.Select a serial port at the computer and disable any service that uses the port.
2.Connect the provided serial cable from the selected port on the computer to the configuration port at the InRow RD cooling unit.
3.Run a terminal program (e.g., HyperTerminal), and configure the selected port for 9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
4.Press ENTER, and at the prompts, enter your user name and password.

Control console structure
For menus not specific to the InRow RD cooling unit but shared among Schneider Electric network-enabled devices, names and locations of options differ from those of the Web interface. The menu structure in the control console is retained from earlier firmware versions for compatibility with scripts and programs that rely on that structure.
Main menu
Use the main Control Console menu to access the control console management features:
1- Device Manager
2- Network
3- System
4- Logout
NOTE: When you log on as Device Manager (equivalent to Device User in the Web interface), you can access only the Device Manager menus and the Logout menu.

Web Interface
Introduction
Overview
The Web interface provides options to manage the InRow RD cooling unit.
See “Web” on page 34 for information on how to select, enable, and disable the protocols that control access to the Web interface and to define the Web-server ports for the protocols.
Supported Web browsers
You can use Microsoft® Internet Explorer® (IE) 5.5 and higher (on Windows operating systems only) or Mozilla® Firefox® 1.x or higher (on all operating systems) to access the InRow RD cooling unit through its Web interface. Other commonly available browsers may work but have not been fully tested by Schneider Electric.
The InRow RD cooling unit cannot work with a proxy server. Therefore, before you can use a Web browser to access its Web interface, you must do one of the following:
•Configure the Web browser to disable the use of a proxy server for the InRow RD cooling unit.
•Configure the proxy server so that it does not proxy the specific IP address of the InRow RD cooling unit.
How to Log On
Overview
You can use the DNS name or System IP address of the InRow RD cooling unit for the URL address of the Web interface. Use your case-sensitive user name and password to log on. The default user name differs by account type:
•apc for an Administrator
•device for a Device User
•readonly for a Read-Only User
The default password is apc for all three account types.
NOTE: If you are using HTTPS (SSL/TSL) as your access protocol, your logon credentials are compared with information in a server certificate. If the certificate was created with the Schneider Electric Security Wizard, and an IP address was specified as the common name in the certificate, you must use an IP address to log on to the InRow RD cooling unit. If a DNS name was specified as the common name on the certificate, you must use a DNS name to log on.
