1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
The intent of this user manual is to provide information about the product characteristics, setup, installation
instructions, operation and maintenance of the FUSION remote monitoring system. This manual contains active
cross references (shown in blue).
FUSION is a comprehensive system designed to perform remote monitoring of many different critical system
parameters found in Fixed and Mobile Communication Centers, Data Centers, Power Rooms and other critical
environments.
Combining a flexiblerange of I/O data acquisitions, software functions, and a host of local and remote network
interface, FUSION is capable of reporting and informing Engineering, Surveillance and Maintenance personnel
about real time status of equipment conditions.
The product is essentially built around Telecommunications Network Standard Practices. This product is built to meet
or exceed NEBS L3requirements. Please note that our products are continuously modified to improve performance
and reliability; therefore, accessories and components are subject to changes without notice. In that case, these
parts or accessories are replaced by equivalent products. Contact Multitel service for the list of available
accessories.
FUSION is an integral part of the Global Solution Offerings from Multitel. In an effort to enhance Power Network
reliability, safety and visibility, FUSION is entirely supported by FIRM SuiteTM, a comprehensive Enterprise Level
Management Software.
FIRM SuiteTM Compatibility
Together with FIRM SuiteTM FUSION provides an integrated, reliable telecommunications infrastructure
management solution, which will shorten response time during crisis situations and improve access to business
intelligence while enabling users to improve planning and asset management with a strategic , well-documented
and cost-effective process. It is an integral part of Multitel’s Global Network Management Solution.
1.2 PRODUCT APPLICATION
There are several application possibilities for FUSION, most of the time they are used in Telecom Centers, Data
Centers, Power Utility Substations and other locations of these types having critical infrastructure in place for the
monitoring of:

FUSION
INTRODUCTION

•Equipment alarms/failure (RTU)
•Energy Management (PUE, DCiE, Efficiency, etc...)
•DC Power Systems (Batteries, Rectifiers, Grounding, etc...)
•AC Power Systems (AC Mains, Generators, UPS)
•Environmental Monitoring
•HybridPower System (Solar, Wind, Batteries, etc...)
•Branch Monitoring (AC or DC Power Distribution feeders)
•OSP Cabinets and Huts Telemetry System
FUSION uses I/O channels to monitor and control critical equipment
behavior remotely from any location. Binary input channels are usedfor
equipment failure detection and alarms such as: doors open or any
change of state like the loss of AC power or generator start. Analog
channels are used to perform specificmeasurements that can be used in FUSION for arithmetic calculation to
provide real time key performance indicators. For equipment parameter measurements (such as voltage, current or
temperature etc.), a sensor/transducer may be required to sense and gather this information. Example: for
temperature measurement a transducer is required. However, other measurement channels (e.g. battery voltage
measurement) can be cabled directly into the FUSION device or transmitted through Modbus communication or
SNMPget modules.
Relay output channels are used to issue discrete alarmsto a local alarm system or can be used to remotely control
equipment such as turning on or off a rectifier, starting or stopping generators, etc. Data can be conveniently
imported and exported to and from FUSION by using application specific devices such as Energy Meters and
Power Quality meters etc. that can support MODBUS RTU and/or SNMP v1 orv2c protocols.
A whole set of software features are provided to improve various processes automation such as: HMI views for
global monitoring and control, statistic and history file recording and chart visualisation, groupsfor automation,
thresholds (pre-set warning levels), chronometers, watt-hour and PID functions for control and monitoring. Callouts
for alarm notification can also be quickly and easily configured either locally through dry contact outputs or remotely
through automatic callouts using a dial-up, Ethernet connection or SNMP trap.
A user-friendly HTTP(S) interface is used to access and operate the FUSION monitoring device. It provides an easy
way to gain access to real-time I/O channels and derived channels statuses, statistics, graphs, HMI views and
overall device configuration. The monitoring device can also be operated from: a local computer, a terminal
connected to the FUSION USB port, an RS-232 serial port, a 56k-modem, an Ethernet connection or even a
Cellular Modem connected to the Ethernet communication port.

1.3 QUICK REFERENCE INFORMATION
At Multitel we believe that the information contained in the User Manual is essential for a global understanding of
the FUSION device. However, as for many high-tech products, reference to the table of contents can be laborious
for users who do not require knowing everything related to the functionality of the product. Every FUSION is
shipped with a laminated quick reference sheet. This sheet displays a summary of software commands, references
to physical I/O connection points and other specific information. It is impossible to cover all important aspects of the
product and for this reason we have included the following quick reference table that answers the most frequently
asked questions addressed to our Customer Service Team.

*Automatic Backup Mode can be activated in the System Configuration Parameters. (See section 3.3) However,
Multitel recommends keeping the use of thismode to a minimum in order to reduce the number of times data is
written to the EEPROM memory.
The FUSION EEPROM memory stores the application specific configuration parameters. Increased memory activity
will reduce the expected lifespan. As the FUSION architecture makes dynamic changes during normal operations
there is a risk of data corruption when writing to the EEPROM. This may cause a complete re-initialisation of the
parameter file. For this reason, it is also recommended to always maintain a downloadable backup copy (in standard
Comma Separated Value (CSV) format) of the last configuration file.

2 FUSION COMPONENTS
2.1 INTERNAL MODULES
FUSION is built around a custom steel chassis. The chassis is protected with a high quality zinc finish in order to
maintain excellent conductivity and minimize ESD damaging effects. The system comesfrom thefactory calibrated
and tested. It is recommended that only qualified technicians from Multitel (or technicians assisted by Multitel) be
allowed to open the chassis for maintenance purposes. The system ispoweredvia the corresponding plug-in
connector located at the back (typically 48volts DC). Ground PEM is located at the back of the device and should be
firmly connected to Frame ground in accordance with the existing National, State or Province Electrical codes.
Figure 2 - FUSION Internal Overview
2.1.1 CPU module
The CPU module is the heart of FUSION. It is based on a MOTOROLA POWER PC microprocessor, a Real Time
Clock (RTC) circuit and a watchdog circuit. The RTC ensures that the system date and time are always well-
adjusted, even if the monitoring device is not powered up. The watchdog circuit ensures that the microprocessor
performs properly. If thecircuit detects a problem, the watchdog will reset the microprocessor. The operating
configuration parameters are stored in FLASH memory (non-volatile). The CPU Module also provides the range of
network interfaces for a local or remote access. The J5 connector (located on the back panel) provides A&B feed,
logic ground reference and Unit Fail Alarm Relay contact. For those who arefamiliar with Multitel monitoring device
products, this CPU module is based on the SYSTEMTM CPU III card.
2.1.2 EXP I/O cards
Multitel offers 4 different types of EXP I/O cards. Looking at Figure 2, we can see that only two EXP I/O cards can
be loaded into a FUSION (loaded at the factory by qualified personnel). The cards are named EXP1, EXP2, EXP3
and EXP4. When no EXP I/O card is installed, I/O aggregation is still possible. However, in this case it is performed
using the expansion shelf I/O cards, the expansion module 1U1S or MODBUS modules connected on the RS-485
subnet. Alternatively, the remote IP supporting devices via SNMPv1 and v2c can be used.
