2.4 UPS Cable [External Version]
Use this cable to connect Call-UPSII to an APC Smart-UPS, Matrix-UPS, Symmetra Power Array or other APC smart device (Share-UPSor Triple Chassis, for example).
2.5 Power Port [External Version]
The external version of Call-UPSII has a power port for an optional power adapter. This adapter is not needed in most situations. Call-UPSII normally receives power from the UPS through the UPS connection cable, giving Call-UPSII protection from poor power conditions. After UPS shutdown for low-battery condition, Call-UPSII will still draw power from the UPS for a time determined by the size of the load and the capac- ity of the UPS. However, Call-UPSII stops drawing power from the UPS before the battery is completely drained.
To determine whether a power connector will be useful, refer to the two paragraphs that follow. You can obtain a power adapter by contacting APC technical support at one of the numbers given on the back cover of this manual. The APC part number for the power adapter is AP9505.
With Smart-UPS
The optional power adapter is required for some older Smart-UPSmodels that do not supply power to Call-UPSII. To determine whether your Smart-UPSsupplies power to Call-UPSII, refer to the Smart-UPSuser manual. Plug the adapter into a wall receptacle if you want remote turn- on and turn-off capability; otherwise, plug it into a Smart -UPSreceptacle. (Smart-UPSmodels 250, 370, and 400 cannot be turned on or off by remote connection; for these models plug the adapter into a Smart-UPSreceptacle.)
With Matrix-UPS
You will need the optional power adapter for use with Matrix-UPSonly if you want remote turn-on capability. Matrix-UPScan be turned off remotely by Call-UPSII, but, without the adapter, Call-UPSII will then lose power. The UPS will execute a Graceful Reboot command (item 5 on the UPS Control menu of Call-UPSII ) without causing Call-UPSII to lose power. Plug the power adapter into a wall receptacle if you want remote turn-on and turn-off capability. Otherwise, plug it into a Matrix-UPSreceptacle.
