Send Sensor Report
You may set the Legrand PDU so that it automatically reports the latest readings or states of one or multiple
sensors by sending a message or email or simply recording the report in a log. These sensors can be either
internal or environmental sensors listed below.
Inlet sensors, including RMS current, RMS voltage, active power, apparent power, power factor and
active energy.
Outlet state sensors, which are available on outlet-switching capable PDUs only.
Overcurrent protector sensors, including RMS current and tripping state.
Peripheral device sensors, which can be any Raritan environmental sensor packages connected to the
Legrand PDU, such as temperature or humidity sensors.
