Using the APC Battery Management System, you can monitor and maintain the batteries of one master unit and up to five expansion units, each unit handling up to 64 individual batteries.

Five battery management expansion units can be connected in a group to one master unit. The master unit provides the network connection through its built-in management card so that the entire group can be managed remotely through either one IP address or a serial connection.

The Battery Management System will support up to 244 lead-acid batteries or up to 375 nickel-cadmium batteries.

To install and connect the system, see the Installation and Quick Start manual (.\doc\en\insguide.pdf), provided in Portable Document Format (PDF) on the APC Battery
