Telemetry Tile Description

Usage:

UPS 250 APZ
Note: The telemetry tile explanations are a sampling of the many and varied tiles that may be shown when using UPS View. The number and types of telemetry tiles will vary from product to product.

Telemetry Tile Description

The following explanations describe the different telemetry tiles for a service level user name and password. The telemetry tile explanations are in order in which the tiles appear in a typical UPS View display configuration.

A typical telemetry tile is shown in three possible configurations.



Illustration 1g01148654
Three Tile Formats

A numeric tile shows up-to-date telemetry values. The data color indicates the status of that specific telemetry channel. Green shows that the telemetry is OK, yellow is a notice condition, and red is an alarm condition.

Note: The telemetry values are updated two times per second.

Select the upper-left button, callout (1), on the numeric tile to expand the numeric tile into a bar graph. Refer to illustration 1. The bar graph will display the same telemetry values as the numeric tile, but in a vertical bar graph format. To return to the numeric tile, select the upper left button, callout (1), again.

Select the upper-right button, callout (2), on the bar graph to expand the bar graph into a line graph. To return to the bar graph, select the upper right button, callout (2), again. The line and bar graphs are combined in the expanded tile. The line graph displays 2 minutes of parameter history. All line graphs are accessible to the crosshairs.

Note: Normal operating range is identified with green numeric or bar representations in the tile. Telemetry that exceeds limits appears in red. Yellow ranges indicate system telemetry is near an upper or lower limit.
