CHLEIFENBAUER
DATABUS
:
WHAT
IS
IT
?
The intelligence of Schleifenbauer PDUs (and DPM
energy meters) makes it possible to read and manage
devices remotely over IP. It's possible for example to
access the databus via the web interface, MODBUS and
SNMP.
The databus provides a wide range of options: it has
adequate support for custom configurations that are
desired by the user.
Databus and power distribution are separated in the
Schleifenbauer PDU. All operations on the databus do
NOT interfere with the distribution of power to the
connected equipment in the racks.
Advantages of the databus:
●
easy to build: Pick a PDU and connect it to a
local area network, daisy chain the rest of the
PDUs and a databus is created.
●
remote updating of the firmware.
Explanation of the image:
●
the PDU/DPM-energy meter that is connected
to the LAN must be in “
BRIDGE
” mode; this is
the MASTER device.
●
all “daisy chained” devices must be in
“
HYBRID
” mode; these are the BRIDGED
devices.
