Description
The F3400/F1000 monitoring system is a comprehensive system which provides additional 
equipment protection by monitoring critical operating parameters in enterprises, remote 
network facilities, communication rooms, remote and unmanned facilities, and critical support 
systems. The F3400/F1000 is a stand alone system. It operates via an embedded Web server 
that handles all data collection, alarm reporting, and multiple concurrent communication 
mediums.
The F3400/F1000 typically monitors analog and dry contact outputs from devices such as 
temperature sensors, humidity sensors, thermistors, gas detectors, smoke detectors, fire 
suppression systems, surveillance products (e.g., IP cameras), leak detection systems, power 
monitoring systems, uninterruptible power supplies (UPSs), power distribution units (PDUs), 
generators, DC power plants, commercial power, HVAC units, ATS and TVSs.
The F3400/F1000 performs internal diagnostics that check the Flash Program code, serial ports, 
RAM, non-volatile RAM, real-time clock, internal power supplies, relay drivers, analog to 
digital converter (ADC), and modem. During operation, the F3400/F1000 monitors its status 
and uses several LED indicators to report its condition.
The F3400/F1000’s embedded firmware enables system configuration, I/O setup, status 
inquiries, alarm reports, data logs, and troubleshooting. The F3400/F1000 is menu driven and 
operates with any Web browser, ASCII terminal or terminal emulation application such as 
HyperTerminal.
