PowerChute plus	Some versions of PowerChute plus do not support Con-
support for	firmed shutdown mode when set up for simple signaling.
Confirmed	Other versions require some editing of the pwrchute.ini file
shutdown mode	in the PowerChute plus installation directory. To find out
	whether your version of PowerChute plus supports Con-
	firmed shutdown mode, go to http://support.apcc.com/ and
	find the link to “ What Versions of PowerChute plus Support
	Confirmed Shutdown Mode?” under Preinstallation Infor-
	mationShare-UPSInstallation Planning.

Confirmed	If you configure Share-UPS in Confirmed shutdown mode
shutdown mode	by setting DIP switches 2, 3, and 4 in the down (0) position,
and the	you must set DIP switch #1 to determine the behavior of the
Advanced port	server or device connected to the Advanced port.
	When Share-UPS is configured for Confirmed mode, DIP
	switch #1 behaves as follows:
	• With DIP switch #1 in the 0 (down) position, the
	Advanced port operates normally, awaiting shutdown
	confirmation in the Confirmed shutdown mode.
	• With DIP switch #1 in the 1 (up) position, Share-UPS
	treats the Advanced port as always confirmed. Use
	this setting when the Advanced port will not be
	receiving a shutdown confirmation signal.
	Note:When the shutdown mode of Share-UPS is set to Until
	Low Battery or Timer, the position of DIP switch #1 has no
	effect.
