APC NetBotz 320 Rack Appliance NBRK0320E Manuel D’Utilisation

The Basic View is primarily designed to provide you with a simple-to-use appliance monitoring 
interface that does not requiring the presence of the Advanced View application and Java Runtime 
Environment. The monitoring tasks that are available when using the Basic View are viewing sensor 
readings, viewing camera images, graphing collected sensor data, and viewing currently active and 
resolved alert conditions. 

You can use the Basic View to view the monitored value and alert status of any sensor that is 
currently connected to the appliance. Sensors are included in the Camera Pod 120 (camera motion, 
door switch, microphone plug, speaker plug) and Sensor Pod 120 (air flow, temperature, humidity, 
dew point, audio, as well as up to 4 external sensors). NetBotz 320 and 420 models camera feature an 
integrated camera and sensor pod and include camera motion, door switch, air flow, temperature, 
humidity, dew point, and audio sensors and can support up to 4 additional external sensors. 

Additionally, Basic Device Crawlers, add-on devices (such as RS232-based sensors) and add-on 
applications (such as Advanced Device Crawlers) provide additional items in the Navigation pane, 
with each monitored device providing additional sensor data. Finally, the current state of any relay-
based devices that are connected to your appliance (using a Output Relay Pod 120 or a Power Control 
Pod) are displayed when the device is selected from the Navigation pane.

To view sensor readings, simply select an item that includes sensors from the Navigation pane. The 
Sensor Data pane is automatically updated to display the current reading being reported by any 
sensors that are associated with the selected item, as well as the current alert status for each sensor. If 
the selected item features a large number of sensors, the sensors may be divided into sensor sets. To 
display all of the sensors included in the selected device select All Sensors from the Set drop-box. To 
view only the sensors associated with a sensor set, select the desired sensor set from the Set drop-
box. If a sensor is reporting an alert state, it’s table row will be colored red.

The air flow sensor, integrated in the Sensor Pod 120 and in NetBotz 320 and 420 
appliances, must accumulate up to 3 minutes of sensor data before it can provide 
accurate air flow sensor readings. After the Sensor Pod or appliance is powered 
on, air flow sensor data will appear as “N/A” until enough data has been collected.

• To view a graph of all data that has been collected by a sensor in the last 60 

minutes, click on the sensor’s current value in the Sensor Data pane. The 
Action/Information pane automatically switches to the Graph view and 
displays a graph of the data that has been collected from the selected sensor in 
the past hour.

• If you have selected an integrated camera, Camera Pod 120, or CCTV 

Adapter Pod 120 from the Navigation pane, you can quickly view the image 
being captured by that camera by clicking View Camera in the Sensor Data 
pane. The Action/Information pane automatically switches to the Camera 
View, with the selected camera pod image displayed.
