The Power Management form (Monitor > Monitoring > Power Management)
lets you monitor the operation of the PMU. You can:
Check the voltage of the battery and the current that the PMU outputs to
the PA.
See whether the base station is running on battery or mains power.
Check the status of the PMU's inputs and outputs.
This form has a gauge displaying the battery voltage and another displaying the
output current. Boxes represent different PMU submodules and LEDs indicate
the status of power inputs and outputs. A box is disabled if the equivalent
submodule is not installed.
The first box in the form displays the name of the module: power management
unit.
The Alarm status box indicates whether there is a current alarm. If the LED is
red and the box displays 'Alarms active', one or more PMU alarms have been
triggered. Select Monitor > Alarms > Current Status to see which alarms are
active.
The battery voltage gauge indicates the voltage of the DC power supply to the
PMU (whether or not it is currently being used).
Power inputs
LEDs in the boxes in the middle of the form indicate the status of the different
power inputs.
