Chapter 2: Connecting External Equipment (Optional)
Connecting an External Beeper
The BCM2 supports the use of an external beeper for audio alarms.
External beepers that are supported include but may not be limited to
the following:
• Mallory Sonalert MODEL SNP2R
After having an external beeper connected, you can create event rules
for the BCM2 to switch on or off the external beeper when specific events
occur. See
Event Rules and Actions
(on page 230).
To connect an external beeper:
1. Connect a standard network patch cable to the FEATURE port of the
BCM2.
2. Plug the other end of the cable into the external beeper's RJ-45
socket.
The beeper can be located at a distance up to 330 feet (100 m) away
from the BCM2.
Connecting a Schroff LHX/SHX Heat Exchanger
To remotely monitor and administer the Schroff
®
LHX-20, LHX-40 and
SHX-30 heat exchangers through the BCM2 device, you must establish a
connection between the heat exchanger and the BCM2 device.
For more information on the LHX/SHX heat exchanger, see the user
documentation accompanying that product.
To establish a connection between the PDU and LHX/SHX heat exchanger,
an RJ-45 to RS-232 adapter cable provided by Schroff is required.
To connect an LHX or SHX heat exchanger:
1. Plug the RS-232 DB9 end of the adapter cable into the RS-232 port
on the Schroff LHX/SHX heat exchanger.
2. Plug the RJ-45 end of the cable into the port labeled FEATURE on
your BCM2 device.
To enable the support of the LHX/SHX heat exchanger, see
Miscellaneous
(on page 303).
