Eaton® Announces Power Xpert® Software – Foreseer Class v.4.3.

10
The ultimate in enterprise management for data centers and facilities the only alternative for
7x24x365 monitoring

Introduction
Power Xpert Software, Foreseer Class (4CR) is a comprehensive solution for system-level management of your
customers’ power infrastructure within a data center or facilities environment. Designed to extend the functionality
found in all of your communicating facility equipment to a central monitoring software, 4CR takes the complexity out
of managing multiple Eaton devices as well as other manufacturers, all using a single Web browser. Unlike other
monitoring software systems on the market, 4CR has the capability to monitor, via the Web, new devices such as
Eaton Powerware PDUs, RPPs, and RPMs communicating over SNMP, or competitors like APC through their own
proprietary protocol. 4CR provides a clear picture of what is happening at a component, device and system level for
each available monitored point on the system.

4CR removes the complexity of keeping track of multiple IP addresses from multiple power devices by displaying the
information in a customized view that is easy-to-navigate for any level of user. With a simple point and click, your
customers can drill down into device detail within seconds. Finally, by gathering, presenting and analyzing system-
wide data in detail, 4CR provides insight into energy consumption and downtime prevention within the entire data
center keeping your customers informed and assisting them to go GREEN.

Key Features:
- Distributed, Scalable, architecture tailored to meet organizational needs
- High performance trend analysis and forecasting tools to assess equipment performance through cause
analysis, impact analysis, capacity planning, preventative maintenance assessments and trending
- Extensive multi-vendor device-driven library interfaces to monitor a large number of different devices
from different vendors – Vendor neutral
- Customizable graphic user interface to depict any company or organizational topology in the initial
design
- Web browser access and remote notification for easy access into the system without the need for
additional client seat licenses
- Allows redundant server to be added to an existing system to be used in a hot standby mode where in
the event that the primary server goes offline for any reason, the back up continues to monitor
- Manager of Manager capabilities to connect multiple sites with multiple servers

New updates to Foreseer v.4.3.10 include:

- Zoom function in Web Views graphing displays High Resolution data
- Set point and tri-state control functionality is in Web Views (already had DC control)
- Full Statistical Data Analysis functionality is in Web Views graphing
