1.0 LIEBERT EQUIPMENT COMPATIBILITY

1.1 What’s New in This Manual

Emerson Network Power® has introduced a new Liebert IntelliSlot® card platform—the Liebert
IntelliSlot Unity card. This platform combines the Modbus 485, Modbus IP and BACnet IP outputs
of existing cards into a common, unified platform. Liebert IS-UNITY allows selecting one of the
available third-party protocols and the Liebert IS-UNITY-DP allows selection of two of the available
protocols.
The Liebert IS-UNITY and LiebertIS-UNITY-DP cards are interchangeable with the IS-485L,
IS-485X, IS-IPBML, IS-IPBMX, IS-WEBL and IS-WEBX cards for the protocols offered. The
information output by the Unity cards is the same as the output of the IS-485L, IS-485X, IS-IPBML
and IS-IPBMX cards. The cards offer Modbus IP/485 and BACnet IP.
The Liebert NX 225-600kVA UPS is also supported with the Chloride ManageUPS Net Adapter +B
communication card so the Modbus mapping supported with this configuration has been included.

1.2 Connectivity to Liebert IntelliSlot Using Modbus 485, Modbus IP or BACnet IP
