• action_disk*_plugged.vbs: This script is executed whenever the SATA module is mounted by the

TC-6110. The default action of this script is to flash LED 1 three times just after the drive has been

successfully mounted.

• action_over_usage_disk*.vbs: This script is executed whenever the storage quota (as set in

mxhtspd.conf; see above, Configuring Hot Swap Settings) for the drive in question is reached.

The default action of this script is for LED 1 to flash 3 times, approximately once every minute.

All of these scripts are authored in Visual Basic and may be freely modified by the user. For instance, if a

systems administrator wishes to modify how storage quota notifications are delivered, s/he may edit the

action_over_usage script that corresponds to the appropriate drive.

Hot Swap (mxhtsp) Logs

Hot swap events and errors log files are found at C:\Program Files\MOXA\mxhtsp\log. Each log file is

automatically updated every 24 hours at midnight, and tagged with the date it is created. Inside, file events are

logged with the date and time the events occurred.

Moxa Predictive Maintenance Diagnostic Tools

Overview

TC-6110 computers come with Moxa’s predictive maintenance (PdM) diagnostic utilities software; this package

includes two tools: the G-sensor charting tool, and the hardware monitor interface. The G-Sensor

charting tool allows you to monitor and record the vibrations that the system experiences over time, allowing

administrators to anticipate and take precautions against conditions that might damage the system

(particularly hard disks). The hardware monitor interface allows administrators to view hardware information

like CPU frequency, drive temperature, and many other system parameters.

Installing the PdM Diagnostics Package

Follow these steps to install the G-sensor (vibration) package.

1. Double click mxsensor_setup.msi in

2. Click Next to continue.

3. Select the folder you want to install the package to, or simply click Next to continue if you want to use the
