American Power Conversion HS 500 user manual Manual Reset Access

8.Following installation, the Back-UPS HS software is available in the Start menu. Upon launching the program, it searches for all Back-UPS HS devices on the network, and will identify them as shown in Figure 8 by IP Address and MAC Address. The IP Address is automatically assigned to the Back-UPS by the DHCP services from your hub or router. IP Addresses assigned by the DHCP service may automatically change over time. Thus, APC recommends you do not bookmark the IP Address, as you may not be able to access it through your browser. The MAC Address is assigned to the Back-UPS HS 500 at the factory.

9.If there are no DHCP services on the network, or if you want to assign an IP Address you can easily remember, you can manually assign an IP Address to the Back-UPS by clicking on the IP Configuration button. The address you assign must follow the format shown in Figure 9 and cannot duplicate an address already assigned. Figure 10 shows the IP Configuration Screen with the IP Address fields set to zero (0).

To assign an IP Address to your computer, please read and follow the directions that came with your computer.

15.Using the Configuration Page Screen (Figure 14), you can adjust the Sensitivity of the Back-UPS. By adjusting the Sensitivity, the Back-UPS will allow the unit to switch to battery power depending on the quality of the AC utility power being supplied to the unit. Use of the Sensitivity settings are for the following conditions:

Low - Use only for extreme conditions of low input voltage. Not recommended for computer loads.

Medium - Back-UPS frequently goes On Battery due to low input voltage (recommended).

High - Connected equipment is sensitive to low voltage.

The Configuration Page Screen also allows you to enable or disable the Audible Alarm. If enabled, this alarm operates as described in the Status Indicators and Alarms section of this manual. If disabled, the Back-UPS will quiet the alarm.

Additionally, the Configuration Page Screen allows you to adjust the voltage Transfer Points. The Back-UPS will transfer to On Battery operation at input voltages Above or Below the points selected in the drop-down Volts menu.

Finally, the Configuration Page Screen provides Output Control for the four outlets of the Back-UPS. Control consists of switching power On or Off at Output 1, Output 2, or the two outlets of Output 3. It also allows you to Reboot loads by automatically switching power Off and then On at the selected outlet. If an outlet is switched Off, it cannot be rebooted.

To use the Configuration Page Screen, you must be logged on to the Back- UPS. Select the desired function and click on the Apply button. To reset the unit to the factory defaults, click the Reset button.
