The two categories that control unit display are the Power Conversion Options dropdown and the Display temperature values as Centigrade checkbox.

Power Unit Conversion Options​

The Power Conversion Options dropdown controls how power consumption values are displayed. The available options are:

  • Do not convert: Default. Displays power values exactly as returned via SNMP, without conversion.
  • Convert Amps to Watts: Converts and displays all power values in Watts.
  • Convert Watts to Amps: Converts and displays all power values in Amps.

Default Voltage​

The Default Voltage (integer required) setting lets you specify the default voltage for Device42 to use in calculations, only if a value is not returned via SNMP.

Display Temperature Values as Centigrade​

The Display temperature values as Centigrade checkbox controls the temperature display:

  • Checked: Converts all temperature values from Fahrenheit (°F) to Celsius (°C).
  • Unchecked: Default. Displays values in Fahrenheit (°F) with no conversion.
