Connecting the host computer

CAUTION: Only one communications port can be connected to the host computer. Connecting more than one will result in unexpected UPS behavior. If an option card is installed, the serial and USB communications ports are automatically disabled.

Connect the UPS to a host computer using either the USB cable or the DB9 serial cable included with the UPS. Install HP Power Protector on the host computer. See the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/rackandpower) to download the latest version of HP Power Protector.

NOTE: To install and configure the software, see the software user guide. The software user guide is available for download from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/rackandpower).

Connecting the serial communications port

CAUTION: Use only the computer interface cable supplied with the UPS to connect the communications port to the host computer.
