Ⅰ. NPM Introduction
NPM can monitor, control and manage the power supply of many equipments in cabinets in data room all over
the world through LAN or WAN. For meeting with the restrictions and requirements in different environment,
NPM supplies many connection methods; can be connected through RJ45 in the LAN and WAN; can be accessed
and controlled through standard network management station.
Ⅱ. Function Description
1. Monitoring function: by the cooperation of LED screen and knob on NPM, user can monitor the total load
current, voltage, individual load current (exclude NPM A and C series), power on/off state of individual outlet
(exclude NPM A and B series), temperature/humidity, smoke, water logging, door opening/closing state. User can
also monitor through LAN or WAN.
2. Controlling function (for NPM C and D series): turn on/off individual outlet, set the interval of sequential
power on/off, set the time for outlet power on/off.
3. Keeping the original state (for NPM C and D series): keep the original state of each outlet when resetting.
4. User-defined alarming: the limit of total load current, individual load current (for NPM B and D series) and
temperature/humidity.
5. System default alarming: system alarming when total load current, individual load current beyond the limit (for
NPM B and D series), individual outlet breaks down, smoke appears, water logging or door opening.
6. Alarming methods: problem information show on LED screen and NPM buzzer alarms, the problem value
flashes on web interface and PC buzzer alarms, automatically send e-mail to system administrator, SNMP
sends alarm information, wireless telecommunication report to administrator.
7. KwH maturement: measure the total Kilowatt per hour
8. Daisy-chain: can daisy-chain at most 9 pcs NPM.
9. Alarming record: record and save the alarming information which can be checked and exported. (Note: record
can only be checked in order. Record information concludes overload, temperature/humidity beyond the limit,
smoke appears, water logging, door opening/closing, outlet breaks down and the insert and pull out of the
sensors)
10. User management: User right configuration
11. Safe mode turn-off: remote soft turn off the NPM
12. Access method: Web, through IE, SNMP (V1/V2/V3) or Telnet, SSH to access and control.
13. Support multi-user operation system and software upgrade.

. Hardware IntroductionⅥ
1. Power on & Self-check
The buzzer makes a sound when NPM is connected with AC power source, LED screen lightening and
sequentially display 8.8.8. 8.8.8. (it means digitron is normal, any different display means fault), software
version number (for example U0.0 1.01), baud rate (for example9 600), NPM default address (For example
ABC DEF), NPM series (for example310 1-d), socket quantity(for example OU7 08), finally display the
value of which OUTLET No.1 pointing to (for example A1 0.0), and RUN indicator flashes. M/S indicator on
means this NPM is master while off means slave NPM.
2. Current, voltage, temperature & humidity Monitoring
OUTLET No.1 and OUTLET No.2 are together used to monitor the relative outlet value (OUTLET No.2 has the
function of plus 8 port or minus 8 port).
3. Water logging & Smoke Monitoring
3.1 When the water logging sensor monitoring the water, NPM LED screen displays and the buzzer
alarms at the same time.
3.2 When the smoke sensor monitoring the smoke, NPM LED screen displays ，and the buzzer alarms at
the same time.
4. Outlet Fault Monitoring
When one outlet breaks down (For example: A1), the NPM LED screen will display relative fault (for example:
A1 Err）, and the buzzer alarms at the same time.
5. Individual current, total current, voltage, temperature & humidity over the Limit monitoring
5.1 When individual load current, total load current, voltage, temperature & humidity value are lower than the
Min., the NPM screen displays as A.1 (that means the load current of outlet No. 1 is lower than the Min. value)
5.2 When individual load current, total load current, voltage, temperature & humidity value are higher than the
5

NPMUserManual
Max., the NPM screen displays as A.1.. (that means the load current of outlet No.1 is higher than the Max. value)
6. Self-checking Parameter Monitoring
Make the OUTLET N0.1 display - - - - - -, then press reset button, the NPM LED screen sequentially display
the NPM self-checking parameter for one minute.
7. Stopping alarming
Click the RESET button to stop alarming for one minute (When NPM3100 has alarm information, OUTLET
No.1 has no function, you have to stop the alarming for one minute then you can check other information. But it
will continue alarming after one minute until you have modified the fault.)
8. Master / Slave NPM Configuration
Press the RESET button for 10-13 seconds, the indicator of M/S on indicates the NPM is the master NPM; Press
the RESET button for 5-8 seconds, the indicator of M/S off indicates the NPM is the slave NPM. Account the
time please refer to the RUN indicator (T= 2S)
9. Daisy-chain Connection Method
9.1 Each NPM owns the sole default address which is different from others. The address has been locked before
leaving factory and can not be changed.
9.2 Set one NPM as master and the others as slaves. One master can daisy-chain 9pcs NPM slave at most.
9.3 One end of the network wire connects to the LINK port of the master NPM, the other end connects to the
SER port of the first slave NPM, then use one end of another wire connects to the LINK port of the first slave
NPM, the other end connects to the SER port of the next slave NPM. Use the same way to connect other slave
NPM.
9.4 One end of the network wire connects to the net port of the PC; the other end connects to the NET port of the
NPM, then through IE to access. (Details please refers to the software introduction)
10. Radialized Connection Method

NPMUserManual
10.1 Set one NPM as master and the others as slaves. One master can link 9pcs NPM slave at most
10.2 One end of the network wire connects to the net port of the PC; the other end connects to the NET port of
the NPM
10.3 One end of the network wire connects to the LINK port of the master NPM, the other end connects to the
RJ45 port of the HUB (special HUB for NPM link from CLEVER)
10.4 Use the end of another network wire connects to another in/out port of the HUB, the other end connects to
the SER port of the slave. Each in/out port of HUB connects to the SER port of one slave NPM, can link 9pcs
slave at most.
