First off, yes I have downloaded the MIB file(s) for this device, both the "powernet455.mib" and the "powernet452.mib" files. And I have parsed the "452" file with MIB Browser ("455") would not load and did not appear to be a valid file.
We are a TV station/studio with a Symmetra LX 16000 installed to carry the equipment while the backup generator starts. I was able to create a monitoring page on our Burk remote control with a few meters but wish to add more for better monitoring:
Burk page with studio UPS
I am able to log into our Symmetra web page and see the following information if I navigate to the UPS Measurements page:
Symmetra UPS monitoring
I would like to be able to add metering for the individual and combined input voltages and the individual output current. I am able to find one input voltage OID and one output current OID but I am unable to determine what phase they are and can't find the input voltage OID.
Is there any way to just get these 5 OID strings rather than having to guess what they are from the odd syntax and descriptions found in the MIB browser? Our Burk remote monitoring system allows us to monitor parameters from many devices, identified by their IP address and I don't believe that we even need to have a MIB file in the Burk for any of the devices- I have created monitoring pages from just hand typing in the OID codes.
While I appreciate the wealth of available information that is in a MIB file I believe that many of us, myself included, might be better served by simply having a list of OID strings for a given device.
Thank you.

I further parsed the "powernet452" file with the MIB Browser and was able to find what appears to be the OID's for Phase L2 output voltage and output current, but I am unable to find anything else. Am I missing something or is the Powernet 452 MIB file not the correct one for the LX 16000? The "powernet455" file appears to be corrupted and won't load up into the MIB Browser. I tried the editing suggested elsewhere for this file but it still does not load. I may try editing it using a different text editor and try again.
If anybody has the OID strings for the parameters, I wish to monitor feel free to share them with me. I feel as if they are in the 455 file but I can't parse that one right now.
TIA

Edited the powernet455 MIB file and was able to load it into our MIB Browser. Still no way to differentiate between the Phase L1 and Phase L2 input voltages and output currents in amps, along with the Phase L1/L2 input voltage. Those numbers are on the web interface, there must be an OID identifier attached to them.
Any help would be appreciated.
