Rittal's latest CMC (Computer Multi Control) now features enhancements to its SNMP enclosure monitoring and access device.

The latest standard units are now available with 512kB flash memory to allow for future software upgrades, with the addition of extension card driver programmes.

Originally conceived as a 1 unit per enclosure device, for certain applications e.g pure temperature monitoring, the addition of I2C bus extension cards can permit the monitoring of up to a total of 20 enclosures from just 1 single CMC.

Access control of up to 5 enclosures may be controlled via a single CMC unit vastly reducing the cost per enclosure of monitoring/access.

Rittal's CMC is also no longer totally reliant on an Ethernet connection being present, with a new ISDN extension card offering dial-up facilities and SMS messaging.

Rittal's CMC can now be attached directly to sensors via a useful Plug and Play unit occupying the same 1U of rack space at the rear of the rack, still allowing airflow up through the centre.

For custom applications an additional cable management module is available.
