8.5. The Current Metering Status Screen
The Current Metering Status screen is used to display up-to-date readings for Amps,
Watts, Voltage and temperature for the MPC unit as well as any optional AUX MPC units
that may be connected.
To view the Current Metering Log screen, access the MPC command mode and then
proceed as follows:
• Text Interface: Type /M and press [Enter].
• Web Browser Interface: Place the cursor over the "Current Metering" link on the
left hand side of the screen. When the fly-out menu appears, click on the "Current
Metering Status" link.
The Current Metering Status screen lists the following parameters for your local MPC
unit, as well as any attached AUX/Remote MPC units:
• Current A: The total current consumption, in Amps, for power circuit A.
• Voltage A: The total voltage for power circuit A.
• Power A: The total power consumption, in Watts, for power circuit A.
• Current B: The total current consumption, in Amps, for power circuit B (if present.)
• Voltage B: The total voltage for power circuit B (if present.)
• Power B: The total power consumption, in Watts, for power circuit B (if present.)
• Current C: The total current consumption, in Amps, for power circuit C (if present.)
• Voltage C: The total voltage for power circuit C (if present.)
• Power C: The total power consumption, in Watts, for power circuit C (if present.)
• Current D: The total current consumption, in Amps, for power circuit D (if present.)
• Voltage D: The total voltage for power circuit D (if present.)
• Power D: The total power consumption, in Watts, for power circuit D (if present.)
• Temperature: The rack temperature(s) currently detected by the MPC unit(s).
• Total Current: The total current, in Amps, for both power circuits.
• Total Power: The total power, in Watts, for both power circuits.
• Over Temperature: Lists the values for the Initial Threshold and Critical Threshold
for the Over Temperature Alarms. Note that when the Current Metering Status
Screen is viewed via the Web Browser Interface, Over Temperature Alarm settings
are not listed. To view Over Temperature Alarm settings via the Web Browser
Interface, please use the Current History Screen as described in Section 8.6. For
more information on the Over Temperature Alarms, please refer to Section 7.2.
• Over Current: Lists the values (as a percentage) for the Initial Threshold and
Critical Threshold for the Over Current Alarms. For more information on the Over
Current Alarms, please refer to Section 7.1.
• Power Factor: The user-defined Power Factor value.
• Power Efficiency: The user-defined Power Efficiency value.
