Using the Management Console, Administrators can view the ambient
temperature and humidity and set the EMD to automatically send alarms
progressively from warning levels to critical alerts.
Connecting the EMD
The Environmental Monitor Device (EMD) connects to any serial port on
the console server via a special EMD Adapter and standard CAT5 cable.
The EMD is powered over this serial connection and communicates using
a custom handshake protocol. It is not an RS232 device and should not
be connected without the adapter:

Plug the male RJ plug on the EMD Adapter into EMD and then connect
to the console server serial port using the provided UTP cable. If the
6 foot (2 meter) UTP cable provided with the EMD is not long enough
it can be replaced with a standard Cat5 UTP cable up to 33 feet (10
meters) in length
