Battery Status

OID

.1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.2.1

Description

The indication of the capacity remaining in the UPS system's batteries. A value of batteryNormal indicates that the remaining run-time is greater than upsConfigLowBattTime. A value of batteryLow indicates that the remaining battery run-time is less than or equal to upsConfigLowBattTime. A value of batteryDepleted indicates that the UPS will be unable to sustain the present load when and if the utility power is lost (including the possibility that the utility power is currently absent and the UPS is unable to sustain the output).

Functionality

• Trigger a warning if states are between 0 and 1
• Trigger an alarm if states are between 3 and 4
• Poll every 60 minutes

Ouput Load

OID

.1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.4.4.1.5

For 3 phase systems its respectively .1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.4.4.1.5.1
.1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.4.4.1.5.2
.1.3.6.1.2.1.33.1.4.4.1.5.3

Description

The percentage of the UPS power capacity presently being used on this output line, i.e., the greater of the percent load of true power capacity and the percent load of VA.

"/MASAI/SENTRY8/UPS_OutputLoad_128_251/type" = { REPLACE = "SNMPPolling" },

Functionality

Trigger alarm when load is over 80%

Note

With three phase systems you have three parameters (entries), f.e. OutputLoad1, OutputLoad2, OutputLoad3)
