Upgrade the Firmware and Refresh Web Pages
After the binary file is uploaded to the communications module, the final step is an automatic process that
upgrades the firmware and refreshes Web pages.
The communications module reboots and, in Bootloader mode, detects a new available image, checks validity
of this image, and launches the upgrade of the firmware and refresh the Web pages. As the upgrade processes,
the LCD display shows the completion status.
When completed, an upgrade message on the LCD displays F/W: 100%, and the communications module
reboots with the new firmware and refreshed Web pages.
Upgrading the Firmware with the USB Port
See “Settings Menu”and “USB Flash Mode Submenu” on page 52 for more information of upgrading with
the USB.
Active Alarms
The Eaton ePDUs have a rich set of alarms and events to notify you of up-to-date activity and operation status.
Both the local ePDU LCD interface and the remote Web interface provide active alarm
notifications when
alarms become active.
l
On the LCD interface, the existing LCD display is replaced by the Active Alarms screen and the backlight is
blinking red when an alarm is generated.
l
On the Web interface, two active alarm notifications are provided:
- In the menu hierarchy, the text for Active Alarms is red when alarms are active.
- In the bottom of the window (the refresh bar), a message displays, “Warning, some alarms fired, please
ref
er to the Active Alarms | Last Refresh: dd/mm/yyyy - hh:hh:ss.” The words “Active Alarms” in the
message are a link to the Active Alarms page.
NOTE The alarm and event list is subject to change.
