Configuration > System > Cords
The Cords page configures the single input power cord in the PDU hardware architecture that reports infeed data
for the unit, allowing the cord name, and the setting of multiple cord nominal voltage, current capacity, SNMP
trap notifications, and SNMP email notifications.
The value for nominal voltage – the point where an alert is received – is established on the Cords page.
For dynamic monitoring of cord status, related power data, and out-of-balance levels, see the separate
Monitoring > Cords page.
To configure cord settings:
1. In the Cord Name field, provide a descriptive text name, from 0-32 characters. The ID (such as AA, AB) is a
system-assigned internal name and cannot be changed.
2. View the reported type of inlet displayed for the cord.
3. In the Nominal Voltage field, set the value (in Volts) to be the mid-point of the Monitoring graphs, so that
nominal voltage is the point where you are alerted for an alarm. Range is 0-max (max is factory nominal
voltage) in the show cords command.
4. Set the current load for the cord in the Current Capacity field. Range is 0-max (max is factory current
capacity) in the show cords command.
5. For each cord listed, check (or uncheck) SNMP Trap Notifications and/or Email Notifications to
enable/disable notifications for cord events.
6. Click Apply.
