Panel Configuration
Configure the branch metering settings for each circuit breaker on
the distribution panel, or configure both panels simultaneously.
To configure a circuit breaker, select the range that includes the
circuit breaker. The selections on the top line on the screen apply
to the top distribution circuit breaker panel on the PDU. The selections on the bottom line apply to the
bottom distribution circuit breaker panel on the PDU. The panel position numbers on the screen
correspond to the numbers on the distribution panel. (Odd numbers are on the left; even numbers are
on the right.) Once you have selected the correct range, configure the settings for each circuit breaker
in the range:
Pos: The panel positions in the selected range.
Breaker: Two configurable items:
• The circuit breaker rating, in amps
• The circuit breaker tie indicator: Define the number of panel positions tied (i.e., associated).
You can associate positions with circuit breakers, which enables you to view status information
about each circuit breaker and receive an alarm notification when any of a circuit breaker’s
poles are above or below the configured branch circuit limit. You can also tie together panel
positions that are logically associated. For example, you can tie together panel positions for
three separate circuit breakers that are connected to the same PDU power cord and that feed
power to the same equipment enclosure.
To configure the values on this screen:
1. From the first column, use the arrow keys to scroll up or down to the pole position you want to
configure.
2. Press the
E
NTER
key to move to the item you want to configure in the third column (the circuit
breaker rating or the circuit breaker tie indicator).
3. Scroll again to select the value you want for the circuit breaker rating or the circuit breaker tie
indicator. To associate one panel position with the next position in the list, choose the +
character as the tie indicator immediately following the circuit breaker rating. To indicate that
the position is not associated with (tied to) the next panel position in the list, choose the
]
character as the tie indicator immediately following the circuit breaker rating. When you change
the
+
or
]
character that follows the circuit breaker rating in one row, the
+
or
[
character before
the circuit breaker rating in the next row also changes to indicate the changed association
between the panel positions.
For example, this screen shows three, single-pole, 20A, tied
circuit breakers occupying positions 08, 10, and 12 on the
top right distribution panel.
