AKCPro Server is a central monitoring and management software for use with AKCP devices and sensors. The software can be used to send email alerts to defined distribution lists. Third-party devices can be integrated into AKCPro via Modbus, SNMP and for compatible IP cameras using ONVIF. The software can be accessed on a smartphone, tablet, or PC. Access is operating system independent, viewable through a HTML5 user interface on any web browser with Google Chrome and Firefox recommended.

New Features in AKCPro Server version 16 (V16.0)

  • Data Centre Design Wizard: a quick way to draw up a data centre floor plan, including the number of aisles and number of racks per aisle with automatic sequential naming (rack 1, aisle 1 etc)
  • ASHRAE Standard Colour Scale: threshold colours are shown on floorplans shaded as per the AHSRAE recommended thresholds
  • 3D Mapping and Visualization: of your server room or data centre
  • sensorCFD™ Airflow Modelling: support for Computational Fluid Dynamics airflow modelling
  • Digital Twin: create a data centre digital twin and use this to compare real time performance to your design concept, model changes, identify potential cooling and enery usage savings
  • Asset Maintenance Log: export as a CSV file for further analysis
  • Asset duplication assets: can be duplicated so you don’t need to repeat work making new assets each time
  • Asset Import/Export: import assets that have been created in another ACKPRo Server instance
  • Import/Export rack maps: if you have already setup a rack map for a specific rack configuration you can import it to other APS or duplicate it to another rack map
  • Map marker search: to find a specific sensor
  • New rearm calculator: adjusted the way the re-arm for the sensor status works, where it must move by a certain value before the sensor will re-arm its status
  • Configure each desktop timezone
  • Set timezone for user
  • Import/export floor plans

Local Area Network (LAN) Installation or Cloud Operation

AKCPro Server can be installed locally on a LAN or run as a Cloud-based service.

Data Centre Infrastructure Management (DCIM)

AKCPro Server is a world-class software package for Data Centre Infrastructure Management. Dashboards can be configured to display the data needed with drill down mapping from data centre wide views to individual server cabinets with thermal maps form the top, middle, bottom, front and rear of the cabinets and differential temperatures, and RFID swing handle lock control and monitoring.

Environmental Monitoring

AKCPro Server can be used to monitor all connected sensors including temperature, humidity, airflow, water leak and other connected sensors.

Power Monitoring

AKCPro Server can be used to monitor single-phase and three-phase, generators, and UPS battery sets. The software calculates live Power Usage effectiveness (PUE) to provide a complete overview of the server room or data centre power supply.

Custom Desktops, Graphing and Drill Down Mapping

AKCPro Server can display and monitor data from the connected sensors in a variety of ways. Desktops can be customised, with different users able to save their own configuration. Graphs, maps, rack maps, video feeds, sensor status and logs can be added to desktops and a selection of gauges can be used to display sensor data.

Security Monitoring

AKCPro Server can be used to secure a server room or data centre at the room and cabinet levels to protect critical IT infrastructure. Audible and visual alarms can be configured and managed through custom desktops.

Access Control

AKCPro Server can administrate access control rights and schedules for doors into server rooms and data centres and into server cabinets using RFID Cabinet Locks.

Video Monitoring

ONVIF compatible IP camera video feeds can be viewed within AKCPro Software and synchronised with sensor events. AKCPro Server is compatible with AKCP, Axis, Avtech, and HIKvision cameras (please check on a model-by-model basis).

AKCPRo Server Setup

The software can be downloaded from the AKCP website at: https://www.akcp.com/akcp-products/akcpro-server/ or run as a Cloud based application.

Dual-Factor Authentification

The graphical user interface of an AKCP sensorProbe+ device can be accessed by multiple users within an organisation. Administrators can create user accounts and set privileges for those users. Using Dual Factor Authentication, an additional layer of security is added for those users logging in. When enabled, as well as entering their usual password, a one-time password (OTP) is generated, sent to their email and must be entered to gain access. This form of multi-factor authentificaiton provides a secure login method, if required.

Enabling Two Factor Authentication on your AKCP sensorProbe+ is as easy as selecting the user account and password settings, entering the SMTP mail server settings, email address to which the OTP should be sent, and time frame for expiration of the OTP.

If you are using a sensorProbe+ base unit with a built-in 4G cellular data modem, the OTP can also be sent via SMS message to the account holder’s mobile phone number. Alternatively, for even more security, the OTP can be sent to the system administrator, and the user must contact them for the OTP and authorisation to login to the sensorProbe+.
