Welcome to PredictPulse remote monitoring service

Eaton PredictPulse is a cloud-based subscription service for data center power infrastructure devices (Eaton UPS’s)
that allows Eaton to remotely monitor and manage system health 24x7, as well as notify users to events and
critical alarms with an expedited response. This document will introduce you to this innovative application
interface, key features and a glossary of terms.

Note: PredictPulse is an Eaton service offered with and without advanced features like predictive
analytics (PredictPulse Insight). This document describes PredictPulse remote monitoring service without
predictive capabilities. Advanced features will be described in future documentation.

How to contact Eaton

Getting started with PredictPulse is quick and easy, and Eaton is ready to help you with any questions 24x7 (USA
call 800-843-9433, option 2, option 5 or email [email protected]).

User interface

PredictPulse includes a simple set of summary and detailed views of your connected devices. You can view
PredictPulse with either a laptop browser, like Chrome, or any mobile device. Eaton uses a progressive web
application (PWA) technology instead of native apps, so the same application can run on most browsers and
mobile devices and adapt based on your device and screen size. Most features will work on either laptop browsers

and mobile with two exceptions: phone calls can only be made from mobile devices and device activation (wizard)
can only be run from a laptop on the device’s network.

Note: you may need to clear your browser cache or click your reload button to refresh the PredictPulse app
occasionally. New features and updates will be released over time and clearing the browser cache often corrects
login or data visibility issues.

Note: browsers supported include Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari. Do not use Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 or
older.

The layout of information will adapt to your device’s screen. PredictPulse uses scrolling to view more information
and expanding/collapsing menu selections.

The key performance indicator (KPI) icons at the top of the device detail screen all include a pop-up tool-tip aid, or
direct to the detailed information, to explain what each icon represents.

The default overview (home) screen view shows the overall number of devices, alarms, events, predictions and
overall health score (PulseScore).

• Devices are UPS systems actively subscribed and sending data to PredictPulse. A parallel UPS
would equal two devices since each UPS can be monitored separately.
• Alarms come from the device and include critical and urgent alarms, which may be informational
or urgent. PredictPulse assigns alarms to categories like “On Battery”, “Internal Fault Detected”,
etc. and a call to the customer point of contact for urgent alarms requiring an Eaton field
technician site visit or advanced exchange will be conducted by the Monitoring team.
• Events are informational and do not come from a device. Lost communications partial telemetry
and high temperature are events.
• Predictions are predictive alerts for PredictPulse Insight subscribers. This will indicate one or
more components health conditions need attention and an Eaton analyst will be in contact to
discuss or arrange a site verification visit.

PulseScore is a summary of device conditions including operational status, recent alarms, taking into consideration
the alarm criticality, component health, age, and service history. When viewing multiple devices, the average of all
devices is displayed as an overall score and letter grade (A+ to F). The scale is 1 -100 with extra points offered for
best practices (core can exceed 100 points). This health score is dynamic and can change at any time.

Letter Grade Value Points

Alarms, notifications

Alarms are defined by the device and include critical and urgent alarms, which may be informational or urgent.
PredictPulse assigns alarms to categories like “On Battery”, “Internal Fault Detected”, etc. and a call to the
customer point of contact for urgent alarms requiring an Eaton field technician site visit or advanced exchange will
be conducted by the Monitoring team. Alarms are sent with approximately a one-minute latency.

Events are non-critical alerts, status change events and informational notices.

Notifications can be self-managed via the side menu Settings button. Default setting is every notification ON.
Note: SMS text messages may result in charges per text message.

User roles, preferences

PredictPulse users can be either administrators or users. The first customer to enroll in any organization account
is the default “administrator”. Administrators have special privileges including ability to manage other users,
adding and deleting devices, escalation preferences (who should get notification calls first) and overall account
security. There can be multiple administrators, but there must always be at least one user with the role of
administrator. Contact Eaton support if you need help with reassigning administrator roles or if an administrator
has left your organization.

Users can manage their own preferences, activate new devices and edit personal contact information, but cannot
invite other users or change devices.

Inviting other users

Administrators can invite other users. Click the button “Invite-Users” from the bottom bar or side menu. You will
be prompted for the name, email address and role type (administrator or user). Once the invited user has
completed their enrollment and has access to your account, their status will display as “registered”. Users that
have not completed enrollment will be displayed as “invited”.

Activating devices

A new account may have devices previously activated or, typically, no devices will be displayed. From a non-
mobile device (laptop) on the same internal network as the device ready for PredictPulse, click the “activate
device” button from the side menu. Note: this cannot be done on a mobile device.

User enrollment and administrators

New users enroll online at https://www.predictpulseapp.eaton.com/login using a two-step authentication process


for security. Required information to get enrolled includes a valid email address, mobile (or phone) number, and
unique password. After submitting the initial user enrollment request, a verification email is sent enabling you to
complete your enrollment.

The first user enrolled is designated as an “administrator” for the account and can invite any number of other
users. There can be an unlimited number of administrators, but every account must have at least one
administrator capable of managing other approved users. If at any time an administrator leaves the company or
no longer wants to be an administrator, any authorized user can contact Eaton PredictPulse support and another
user can be designated as an administrator. There’s no limit on the number of users.

Inviting other users

Administrators can invite, using the sidebar, other users or coworkers to enroll in PredictPulse either as a user or
as an administrator. If you’re not setup as an administrator and want other coworkers to have access to your
PredictPulse account, you should contact your administrator and have them invite the user(s). You may also
contact Eaton PredictPulse support and additional users can be invited. The customer’s administrators ultimately
have authority to manage, control, invite and delete all users. Once a new user is enrolled they can view all device
data associated with the account.

Troubleshooting

Login or not getting updates - you may need to clear your browser cache or click your reload button to refresh the
PredictPulse app occasionally. New features and updates will be released over time and clearing the browser
cache often corrects login or data visibility issues.

Cannot see Activation Wizard – this feature is only displayed on browsers (laptop) where the screen size is 1024 x
926 or higher; mobile devices cannot see this feature

Greyed out selections – in several screens, buttons may be grey and nonfunctional. Certain features will be added
or turned on or off based on your subscription. Activation wizard will only appear on a laptop browser and
schedule service > call Eaton will only work on a mobile device.

Missing load trend chart – new devices without any history will display a blank or “missing load trend” until data
has been collected over at least 2 days. If a device stops sending data a trend chart may have a gap indicating
missing data.

Lost communication – devices will occasionally miss sending an email to PredictPulse. After two consecutive
missed heartbeats, or telemetry emails, PredictPulse will automatically display a status of Lost Communication.
Once a device sends an email the status will revert to normal or its condition. Typically, this issue is due to a
customer communication network change beyond the control of Eaton. A lost comms restored email will be sent
upon restoration.

Partial telemetry – occasionally a device will send an email and one of the required data attachments is
incomplete, incorrect or a value may be missing. PredictPulse will display valid information but certain values may
be null or displayed as “—“. Check if you have the latest firmware. Go to Eaton’s web site, www.eaton.com, and
search for “network connectivity card” resources to download the latest firmware.
