Application Notes

  • Alert Notifications Sent via Email, LEDs, Web Page, Network Management (SNMP), and SMS Messages
    Loading image...
    The ENVIROMUX™ Server Environment Monitoring System gives total security to IT centers by providing early warnings about potential problems via email, LEDs, web page, network management (SNMP), and SMS messages (via external GSM modem).
  • Send Email Alerts from a Private Network to a Public Mail Relay Server
    Loading image...

    The ENVIROMUX-SEMS-16 present on a private 10.x.x.x network is capable of sending email alerts to a public 153.x.x.x mail relay server.

    Note: To use a DSL type router in this set up, set a gateway in the network settings of the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-16 to allow traffic to be sent to the 153.x.x.x network. The IP address of the router on the private 10.x.x.x network is the gateway.

  • Monitor Telect™ GMT Fuse Panels with Relay Outputs.
    Loading image...
    The ENVIROMUX™ Server Environment Monitoring System monitors Telect™ GMT fuse panel relay outputs and sends alerts in case of power loss, fuse break, or bay alarms. Configure digital inputs as "normally open" for proper operation.
  • Accessing Sensor Data using HTTP Requests
    Loading image...

    Sensor data can be retrieved from the ENVIROMUX® Server Environment Monitoring System using the HTTP requests shown in the table below. The value for "s" is the value of the sensor. For example, to access the current value for External Sensor number 1 you can use:

    http://[ip address of the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-16 to access]/ext_sens_val.html?s=1

    Type
    External Sensor ext_sens_val.html?s=0 ext_sens_stat.html?s=0

  • "I'd like take this opportunity to thank you for the outstanding level of service I have received from you. Our ENVIROMUX-SEMS-16 has been installed and is the fit that we were looking for to monitor potential environmental threats. The interface is very user friendly. We will be purchasing additional sensors as the need arises and would highly recommend your product."

  • "NTI's ENVIROMUX-MINI has allowed our federal agency to monitor temperature in critical areas should the building's HVAC fail. I was so impressed by it that we upgraded our main server room from the ENVIROMUX-MINI to the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-16, which will allow us to send cellular messages during power failures that affect our demarc. As the Network Engineer responsible for monitoring the agency's network faults and environmental variables, I can fulfill my duties knowing that NTI's products will alert me of a potential failure long before anyone becomes affected by it."

    Philip Hutinet
    Washington, DC, USA
  • "While shopping for environment monitoring equipment for our remote facilities, I came across NTI's website. One call got me all the information I needed on the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-16. After sharing the information with everyone, we couldn't believe the flexibility of these units. NTI allowed us to demo one of the units for 30 days. The quality and flexibility of the product is great, plus NTI has a sensor for most anything you want to monitor. We placed another call to order two more units and all the sensors we needed. Now we can completely monitor and protect our remote sites just by logging in through a web browser."

    Patrick Beard

  • "Between myself and my assistant, we are responsible for approximately 360 network devices at 4 different facilities. Several of these 360+ devices are wireless access points, routers, switches and our biggest nemeses, network based IP time clocks which are used for time and attendance purposes as well as logging on and off of jobs to track time.

    "Being able to ping for up status of the non PC network IP devices through the ENVIROMUX-SEMS-16 allows my assistant and I to attack a down device before it becomes a crisis."

    Michael Wagner
    Metal Technologies, Inc.
