This unit is rack-mountable and is Worldwide voltage adaptable. General Description The CMC is a rack-mounted device intended to monitor and control the environment within a single-rack or multiple-rack suites. The system consists of a CMC, several sensors, and the Compaq Intelligent Rack Manager Lite software. With the software, you can easily configure the CMC, remotely receive system status and alerts, and initiate planned actions. Optional sensor kits are available to expand the capabilities of the CMC and include additional temperature, humidity, vibration and intrusion sensors, as well as smoke detection and electronic door locks. A number of sensors can be connected to the CMC to monitor temperature, humidity, smoke, mechanical shock/vibration, and security. With the proper setup, the system can: Monitor voltage within the rack. Monitor temperature within the rack Monitor humidity levels in the rack. Detect whether rack doors are open or closed. Detect someone tampering with the rack. Detect smoke within the rack. Remotely lock and unlock the rack doors. The system can be programmed with thresholds for the sensors to trigger alarms, and programmed to take action on those alarms. For example, from the Console, the CMC can be programmed to turn the rack fans on when the rack temperature is too warm or turn the rack fan assemblies off if smoke is detected. Should an unauthorized person attempt to enter the rack, the system may sound an audible alarm, send an alert message to the Console, send an e-mail, send a page, or activate an alarm relay switch connected to some device set up by the user, such as a siren, or rotating light.

203039-B21. This unit is rack-mountable and is Worldwide voltage adaptable.
General Description
The CMC is a rack-mounted device

kits are available to expand the capabilities of the CMC and include additional
temperature, humidity, vibration and intrusion sensors, as well as smoke
