Note: A special external SNMP/HTTP Agent device is available that connects to the UPS’s RS-232 Port. This allows for one Dry Contact interface board to be installed into the Advanced Communications Option Slot concurrently.

CAUTION: When an internal SNMP/HTTP AGENT device is installed into the Advanced Communications Option Slot, the RS-232 port and UPSILON software may not be used.

The RS-232 PORT

The unit is equipped with one RS-232 port located on the UPS rear panel. A SPECIAL interface cable is provided to allow for the connection of the UPS to another RS-232 port found on most computers. When this cable has been connected, and the supplied UPSILON Computer Shutdown and Management software has been properly installed on the connected computer, a high level of protection against lost or corrupted files is in effect.

Please refer to the UPSILON Users Manual located on the UPSILON CD supplied with this unit. UPSILON supports most popular operating systems. Should you have special UNIX requirements, please contact Falcon Electric
