The HP Modular Cooling System has a management module with a web interface that analyzes, queries, and
manages various measurements and warning and alarm messages from the MCS unit.
The management module analyzes measurements provided by the cooling unit, generates any necessary
warning or alarm messages, and sends the messages to the web interface.
When a new warning or alarm occurs, the following events occur:
•
The warning and alarm messages (on page

Alarms menu and Alarm History menu (on page
