Introduction
The HP Modular Cooling System G2 has a management module with a web interface that analyzes,
queries, and manages various measurements and warning and alarm messages from the MCS G2 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
) appear on the operator display and the web
interface Alarms menu and Alarm History menu (on page
•

•
An alarm relay is also activated (if enabled).
•

Modular Cooling System G2 User Guide.
Various system values can be set through the web interface and sent to the management module. The
