Control Console

How to Log In

Overview

You can use either a local (serial) connection, or a remote (Telnet)

 

connection with a computer on the Management Card’s subnet to

 

access the Control Console. Use case-sensitive User Name and

 

Password entries to log in (by default, apc and apc, for an

 

Administrator, or device and apc, for a Device Manager). For

 

information about the screen that appears when you log into the Control

 

Console, see Main Screen on page 17.

Local (serial) access You can use a computer that connects to the Management Card through

 

the serial port at the UPS or chassis to access the Control Console.

 

1.

Select a serial port at the computer to be used for a terminal-

 

 

emulation connection with the Management Card.

 

2.

Disable any service that currently uses the selected serial port,

 

 

such as PowerChute® plus or UNIX® Respond.

 

3.

Disconnect any cable from the selected serial port and connect

 

 

the smart-signaling cable (940-0024) that came with the

 

 

Management Card to the selected serial port and to the serial

 

 

port on the UPS or chassis.

 

 

Note: If the computer uses smart-signaling PowerChute plus,

 

 

omit step 3: A smart-signaling cable (APC part number

 

 

940-0024 or 940-1524) is already installed.

 

4.

Run a terminal program, such as HyperTerminal.

 

5.

Configure the serial port for 2400 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1

 

 

stop bit, and no flow control, then save the changes.

 

6.

Press ENTER to display the User Name prompt (you may need to

 

 

press ENTER two or three times).

 

7.

Enter your User Name and Password.

 

 

Note: If you cannot remember your User Name or Password,

 

 

see How to Recover from a Lost Password on page

 

 

16.

Remote (Telnet)

You can use Telnet to log into the Control Console from any computer

access

on the same subnet as the Management Card.

 

1.

At a command prompt, type telnet and the Management

 

 

Card’s System IP address, and then press ENTER. For example:

 

 

telnet 159.215.12.114

 

2.

Enter your User Name and Password.
