The ACL Slave & Display units are powered through their respective R-BUS24V connectors. Additionally the ACL Slaves can also be powered through the incoming mains power on phase 1 (L1). Note: The maximum amount of Slaves allowed on the R-BUS24V bus of 1 Master: 32 The maximum amount of Displays allowed on the R-BUS24V bus of 1 Master: 7 The power supply in the ACL Master is capable of powering the amount of devices mentioned above. However, the actual amount of devices that can be powered is determined by the type, wire gauge and length of the RJ45 cables used to connect the R-BUS24V connectors of the devices on the bus. To increase the amount of devices that an ACL Master can power on its bus, either upgrade the cables used, or provide power on its Slaves phase 1 (L1) connection. For example, a typical setup using standard low-cost 2 meter cat5e patch cables will only be able to power 16 ACL Slave modules. ACL Master 1. Attach the supplied 2 pins 24V connector to an existing 24VDC power cable by using the screws. 2. Plug the power connector into the designated socket on the ACL Master. 3. The POWER LED (blue) adjacent to the connector will become active. ACL Slave 1. Attach the supplied 5 pins connector to an existing 100-240 VAC power cable by using the screws. AND/OR Plug the RJ45 cable coming from an R-BUS24V connector of a powered ACL Master, ACL Slave or ACL Display into either of the R-BUS24V connectors. 2. The POWER LED (blue) on the front panel will become active. ACL Display 1. Plug the RJ45 cable coming from an R-BUS24V connector of a powered ACL Master, ACL Slave or ACL Display into either of the R-BUS24V connectors. 2. The screen will light up. For more info on how to manage the devices on the bus see the Managing Slaves & Displays chapter. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 13/38 v 2015.9.1 Installing Transducers Specifications The ACL Slave has been designed to communicate with a wide range of transducers as long as they meet the following criteria: Output voltage: 330mV AC Note: The ACL Slave features a fixed list of predefined transducer models with a wide variety of current ranges. If you are uncertain that your preferred transducer is compatible with the ACL Slave, please contact Support prior to purchase. Note: As seen on the diagram on the front panel of the ACL Slave the intended transducer setup is as follows: The transducer connected to T1 measures L3 The transducer connected to T2 measures L2 The transducer connected to T3 measures L1 The transducer connected to T4 measures N Since the device assumes all wiring to be as described above, any other wiring schemes will return unexpected results. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 14/38 v 2015.9.1 Installation To receive all available read-outs and metrics both the transducer and its corresponding phase need to be connected and powered correctly. If certain metrics are missing for a specific transducer, please verify that there is an active phase for that transducer. To install a current transducer: Connect the 2 ends of the current transducer cable to the correct 2 pins of the 8 pins transducer connector (male) using a flathead screwdriver. The correct pin layout for the transducer connector is as follows (from left to right): o Pin 1 & 2: T1 (measuring L3) o Pin 3 & 4: T2 (measuring L2) o Pin 5 & 6: T3 (measuring L1) o Pin 7 & 8: T4 (measuring N) Connect the transducer connector (male) to the transducer connector on the ACL Slave (female). Open the core of the transducer; enclose the power cable that needs to be monitored and close the core again.

Global The Global section of the SNMP subtab contains the following settings: Allow SNMPv2c GET & SET o Toggles communication to and from the device using SNMPv2c Note: SNMPv2c Traps can still be used when this setting is disabled (see Traps chapter) Allow SNMPv3 GET & SET o Toggles communication to and from the device using SNMPv3 Note: SNMPv3 Traps can still be used when this setting is disabled (see Traps chapter) Write Protection (SNMP read-only) o With this setting enabled the device will not accept changes and SET requests over SNMPv2c or SNMPv3. GET, Walk, etc. requests are still allowed Enable SNMP Traps o When enabled, no SNMP Traps will be sent (even when all other SNMP settings are configured correctly) Heartbeat Interval o Defines the interval (in seconds) at which Heartbeat SNMP Traps will be sent to the configured receivers. Set to 0 to disable this feature Download MIB file o The MIB files for your device, more info in the Error! Reference source not ound. chapter Authentication Profiles The authentication profiles section is used to configure the available SNMP profiles for GET & SET access. At this time the following profiles are available: SNMPv2c o 1 profile available o Requires community strings (read, write and trap) SNMPv3 o 3 profiles available o The SNMPv3 profiles require all of the following parameters: USM User Authentication passphrase (auth): MD5 In text or hexadecimal format Privacy passphrase (priv): AES In text or hexadecimal format Note: Some SNMP monitoring tools will require the SNMPv3 Engine ID displayed in this section. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 29/38 v 2015.9.1 Traps In the Traps section up to 3 SNMP Trap receivers can be configured. Each receiver contains the following: Enable o Enable or disable this receiver IP Address o The IP address of the receiver Port o The network port on the receiver to use Authentication profile o The authentication profile used to authenticate with the Trap receiver Send test SNMP Trap o Sends a Heartbeat Trap to all configured SNMP Trap receivers Note: Save any changed settings before using the button Note: This button is disabled when SNMP Traps are disabled in the Global section Power Settings Path: Settings > Power Note: Use the module selection dropdown list to select the correct ACL Slave. The Power tab allows you to set the following for each managed ACL Slave: Energy Increment Mode The energy increment mode determines how the values on the ACL Slave > Energy tab are calculated o Always: All values will be incremented to calculate the energy o Only Positive: Only positive values will be incremented to calculate the energy o Only Negative: Only negative values will be incremented to calculate the energy Transducer Settings Select the correct transducer type from the dropdown list for each of the connected transducers (T1, T2, T3 and T4). The transducer type is printed on the model label of each transducer. Note: Selecting an incorrect type of transducer will return incorrect values on the ACL Slave tab. At the time of writing current sensors with the following Amp rating are available for purchase from Racktivity: 25A 600A 50A 800A 100A 1500A 200A 2000A 400A 3000A Please contact sales@racktivity.com for an updated list or more information. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 30/38 v 2015.9.1 Managing Slaves & Displays In order to fully use the ACL Slaves and ACL Displays they need to be managed by the ACL Master. 1. Make sure the ACL Slaves and ACL Displays are connected and powered correctly. Please refer to the Mounting the ACL Hardware chapter for more info. 2. On the ACL Master Web Interface, open the Management > ACL Slaves or ACL Displays tab. 3. Press the Scan for New Modules button. 4. After scanning has completed verify that the connected devices are listed in the table. 5. The management table shows basic info on each device allows you to locate and/or remove certain units. 6. All devices listed (for both ACL Slaves and ACL Displays) are now available on the Web Interface of this ACL Master, use the device selection dropdown list on the relevant tabs to switch devices (see the Layout chapter). Principles Whenever Slaves or Displays are added to the R-BUS24V and managed by the Master the addressing of that module will follow the rules below: 1. New modules will get the next available (unused) module address. 2. As long as a managed module is not explicitly removed (by pressing the corresponding Remove link on its management tab, or by performing a factory reset) that address will remain reserved for that module. Let’s say you start with the following setup: Q1: managed & connected Q2: managed & disconnected D3: managed & connected Q4: managed & connected Based on the 1st Principle, any new module that is connected and managed will be assigned address 5 (either Q5 or D5, depending on the type of module). Based on the 2nd Principle, if you however remove the disconnected module (Q2) first, and then connect and manage a new module it will be assigned address 2 (either Q2 or D2, depending on the type of module). Note that a module does not need to be disconnected before it can be removed. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 31/38 v 2015.9.1 Thresholds Thresholds can be configured and used so that you are notified through SNMP at certain events. Many of the ACL Series’ parameters have settable thresholds. To configure a specific threshold, open the tab where the appropriate parameter is shown. At least the following parameters have one or more settable thresholds: Voltage o Path: ACL Slaves > Voltage Current o Path: ACL Slaves > Current Power o Path: ACL Slaves > Power Dry Contacts o An SNMP notification will be sent whenever the Current State for that Contact changes. o Path: ACL Slaves > Contacts Ambient o Path: Environment > Ambient Depending on the parameter one or more of the following types of thresholds will be available: Low: High: When the measurement goes below this value an SNMP notification is sent When the measurement goes above this value an SNMP notification is sent To change a threshold enter the desired value into the appropriate input area and press the Save button. If the background of the input area turns red an incorrect value has been entered. Note: Most thresholds have corresponding SNMP checkboxes that enable/disable the notification. Please ensure that both the threshold and the appropriate SNMP notifications are set correctly. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 32/38 v 2015.9.1 Resetting Measurements For many parameters the minimum, maximum and/or total is saved to give an easy overview of load activity. These values can be easily reset by pressing the Reset link for that value. The following parameters have resettable values: Voltage o Path: ACL Slaves > Voltage Current o Path: ACL Slaves > Current Power o Path: ACL Slaves > Power Energy o Note: The values in the Accumulated columns cannot be reset to 0. o Path: ACL Slaves > Energy Ambient o Path: Environment > Ambient Note: Clicking a Reset link in the column header will reset all values in that column. Network Time Protocol (NTP) Path: Settings > Device The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol for synchronizing the clocks of computer systems over networks. The ACL Master is equipped with an onboard clock that can be setup to sync with: pool.ntp.org (default) a custom NTP server date & time picker For more information regarding the configuration of the onboard clock please refer to the Device Settings chapter. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 33/38 v 2015.9.1 CLI Introduction The ACL Master has a built in Command Line Interface that can be accessed through Telnet or secure Telnet (Telnet-SSL). Commands are typically sent to the separate modules. An ACL Series setup consists of 1 Master module, up to 32 ACL Slaves, and up to 7 ACL Displays. Each device is designated as a specific type: M for the ACL Master Q for the ACL Slaves D for the ACL Displays The Master will always have address M1 while the Slaves will have address Q1 to Q32 (same for the Displays) Connecting Telnet Connect to the device IP on port 23 over Telnet using a 3rd party tool (i.e. Putty). Please note that only Telnet over SSL is enabled by default. This can be changed on the Settings > Network subtab on the Web Interface of the ACL Master. Telnet-SSL Connecting to Telnet over SSL can be achieved through several 3rd party tools. For example using stunnel (cross platform): Create a config file for stunnel called stunnel.conf containing the following: fips = no cert = stunnel .pem client = yes [pdu] accept = 127.0.0.1:23 connect = [DEVICE_IP]:992 sslVersion = SSLv3 (with [DEVICE_IP] being the IP address of the PDU) Start stunnel with this config: # stunnel stunnel.conf If you now Telnet to 127.0.0.1 on port 23, stunnel will tunnel the traffic over SSL to the specified IP. Once connected, you will be presented with a log-in screen. Use the admin credentials to gain full access. From here it is possible to access the majority of the devices’s functions. Execute the HELP command for more information. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 34/38 v 2015.9.1 Management Information Base (MIB) A Management Information Base (MIB) is a virtual database used for managing the entities in a communications network and is most often associated with the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The ACL Master features a built-in mib file which can be found at the following locations: By browsing to http://[DEVICE_IP]/RACKTIVITY-MIB.txt o with [DEVICE_IP] the IP of your ACL Master By clicking the "Download MIB file" link on the Settings > SNMP tab on the web portal. Use this file to translate the OIDs (Object IDentifiers) to a more human-readable state. For more information on how to use the MIB file, please refer to the documentation of your network monitoring software. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 35/38 v 2015.9.1 Upgrade Firmware Racktivity is always working on improving and fine-tuning its products. It is possible that a new firmware is available for your device. During a firmware update the device continues working as normal. Note: Make sure all active connections to the ACL Master - such as the web interface and Telnet - are closed before updating. Open connections might result in a failed update! Obtaining Files If you are unsure whether a firmware update is available for your device, have a look at http://www.racktivity.com/support or contact Racktivity Support (see Support chapter). If applicable the necessary files and instructions will be provided. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 36/38 v 2015.9.1 Troubleshooting Resetting Login Credentials In case of lost login credentials, resetting them can be done through the navigation buttons on the ACL Master front panel: Press and hold the UP and DOWN buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds until a notification is shown on the display. The credentials will now be reset to their default settings: User name Password Default login credentials admin 1234 Connecting to the Web Interface If you are unable to connect to the Web Interface please try one or more of the following options: Ping the device on its IP address. When unsuccessful, the ACL Master is most likely not on the same network as your PC, or communication is blocked by a network device. Connect the ACL Master directly to your computer (please note that for this both devices need to have a valid fixed IP). Try opening the Web Interface with another browser. Connect to the ACL Master using a different computer. Power cycle the ACL Master (if possible). Knowing your device’s IP address The IP address of your ACL Master is displayed on the main screen of its onboard display. Press any of the navigation buttons to activate the screen. © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 37/38 v 2015.9.1 Support Feel free to contact us if you need any support or have any other questions or remarks: Online www.racktivity.com/support E-mail support@racktivity.com Phone 003293242095 (GMT+1) © 2011 Racktivity NV Antwerpsesteenweg 19 - 9080 Lochristi - Belgium - www.racktivity.com 38/38 v 2015.9.1
