Missing Power Stats

Hiya Guys,

Something always handy is to get email alert when voltage levels drop. Usually indicates an AC failure.

On the WS-12-250-DC - I can see under Power tab an option to set a WARNING VOLTAGE

On the WS-12-DC - I can't see this option under POWER tab. Please could someone advise, as i'm stuck!

Thanks,

Guy

The WS-12-DC is supposed to be used with a "power supply" hopefully an isolated power supply so input voltage would and should be constant not vary at all.

But I suppose you could look at the 48 volt measurement as it is basically the voltage being sent to the board from the power supply.

But again the WS-12-DC is designed to be used with a constant voltage power supply.

Why do people use the WS-12-250-DC with a power supply and apparently your not using the WS-12-DC with a power supply.

WS-8-150-DC / WS-12-250-DC / WS-26-500-DC designed to hook directly to battery bank not a power supply or charging bypass controller.

WS-12-DC / WS-26-DC designed to be powered by a power supply preferably an ISOLATED power supply NOT hooked to batteries.

I have the WS-12-DC connected to a UBNT EDGE Power 150w, I note when the AC fails the voltage drops by around 1.5v - Be really handy if there was some email alert as typical Ubiquiti haven't finished the product and it has no email function at all!!

Is there any hard of connecting the 250 to a PSU like the EDGE POWER?
