Environmental Monitoring Probe (EMP) Installation and Connection Quick Start
Installation and Connection Quick Start
The optional environmental monitoring probe (EMP) is a connectivity device that enables you to collect temperature and
humidity readings in the environment and monitor the environmental data remotely. You can also collect and retrieve the
status of two contact devices.
You can monitor readings remotely using a standard Web browser. This provides greater power management control
and flexible monitoring options.
The EMP device is delivered with a screw, Velcro fasteners, tie wraps, and a connection cable. You can install the
device anywhere near by Network Management Card (NMC). To attach the EMP, use either the Velcro fasteners or
mount the EMP on the supplied screw. The EMP also has a universal slot on the back for mounting easily on a screw
and in any direction.
For detailed information about using the EMP, refer to the Network Management Card (NMC) User’s Guide.
Features
The environmental monitoring probe has the following features:
DANGER:Electrical current from power, telephone, and communication cables is hazardous. Do not connect or
disconnect any cables or perform installation, maintenance, or reconfiguration of this product during an electrical
storm.
DANGER:When possible, use one hand only to connect or disconnect signal cables.
The hot-swap feature simplifies installation by enabling you to install the probe safely without turning off power to the
UPS or to the loads that are connected to it.
The EMP monitors temperature and humidity information of any environment that you want to protect your critical
equipment. The EMP measures temperatures from 0°C to 70°C with an accuracy of ±2°C.
The EMP measures relative humidity from 10% to 90% with an accuracy of ±5%.
It can be located away from the NMC with a CAT5 network cable up to 2m (65.6 ft) long.
DANGER:Never turn on any equipment when there is evidence of fire, water, or structural damage.
The EMP monitors the status of the two user-provided contact devices.
DANGER:Disconnect the attached power cords, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems before you
open the device covers, unless instructed otherwise in the installation and configuration procedures.
Temperature, humidity, and cont act closure status can be displayed through a Web browser.
CAUTION:When possible, use one hand only to connect or disconnect signal cables.
User-selectable alarm thresholds enable you to define acceptable temperature or humidity limits.
E-mail notification through Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), using e-mail client software when acceptable alarm
limits are exceeded or contact status changes.
CAUTION:Never turn on any equipment when there is evidence of fire, water, or structural damage.
Changes in external contact status are logged in the NMC event history log.
CAUTION:Disconnect the attached power cords, telecommunications systems, networks, and modems before you
open the device covers, unless instructed otherwise in the installation and configuration procedures.
When temperature and humidity values exceed user-selectable limits, the event is logged in the NMC event history log.

Unpacking and Inspecting the Equipment
Connecting the Optional EMP to the NMC
The EMP is an optional accessory that is packaged separately from the NMC. Use proper lifting and carrying techniques
when unpacking and moving the EMP packing carton and components.
You can install the EMP either before or after NMC installation and startup. An EMP can be installed without turning off
power to the NMC or the devices connected to it.
Inspect the product before installation. If the product is damaged in any way, see the Service and Support section for more
information.
To install the optional EMP:
Service and Support
For questions or problems, please call your local distributor and have the following information ready when you contact
for a service support: Model number, serial number, symptoms of failure or problem, customer return address, and contact
information.
Units damaged in shipment as a result of improper packaging are not covered under warranty. A replacement unit will be
shipped, freight prepaid for all units under warranty.

If you plan to monitor one or two external contact devices, connect the external contact closure inputs to the screw
terminals on the EMP.
NOTE: External contact devices can be normally open or normally closed.

Locate the Ethernet cable (supplied). Connect one end of the cable to the RJ-45 connector on the EMP, then connect
the other end of the cable to the RS-232 connector on the NMC(see Figure 2).
NOTE: If the supplied cable is not long enough for your installation, you can use another Ethernet cable up to a length of 20m (65.6 ft).

Use either the supplied screw or Velcro straps to mount the EMP in a convenient location anywhere on the rack as
follows:

To mount the NMC UPS within the enclosure environment, attach one Velcro fastener to the NMC UPS and the other
Velcro fastener to an enclosure rail post. Press the two Velcro strips together to secure the EMP to the rail post.
The EMP has a universal slot on the rear for easy mounting on a screw in any direction. Use the supplied screw
to wall mount the EMP.
Use the supplied tie wraps to secure the Ethernet cable out of the way as needed.
