Communications

8.3USB Interface Port

The PowerSure PSI has a USB interface port for communication that will work with the built-in Microsoft Power Manger software on the user’s PC, if so equipped. It will provide UPS status and manages the automatic orderly shutdown of the computer. The UPS’s USB communications meet HID standard, version 1.11. All USB models are compatible with Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP and Mac OS 10.2 or later. All USB models ship with a 1.8m (6 ft) USB cable.

Microsoft, Windows, and the Windows logo are trademarks, or registered trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries.

8.4Data Line Protection Connectors

Data line (in and out) connectors are on the rear of the UPS and provide transient voltage surge sup- pression (TVSS) for Phone/Fax/DSL/Internet/Modem devices.

8.5UPS Intelligent Communications

The PowerSure PSI is equipped with an Intellislot® port to provide advanced communication and monitoring options.

Liebert’s MultiLink software continually monitors the UPS and can shut down your computer or server in the event of an extended power failure.

MultiLink can also be configured for use without the serial cable when the Intellislot OCWEBCARD is installed in the UPS. Additionally, MultiLink can be configured to coordinate shutdown across the network with other computers running MultiLink when you purchase a MultiLink License Kit. For more information about the Intellislot OCWEBCARD and MultiLink License Kits, visit our Web site (www.liebert.com) or contact your local dealer or Liebert representative.

Several option cards are available for use in the Intellislot port of the PowerSure PSI. The Intellislot OCWEBCARD provides SNMP and Web-based monitoring and control of the UPS across the network.

The Intellislot MultiPort 4 Card allows you to install MultiLink software on four computers and coor- dinate shutdown in the event of a power failure.

The RELAYCARD-INT provides dry contact relay outputs for custom-wired applications and delivers support for built-in shutdown for AS/400 systems.

NOTE

The USB, Intellislot and Contact Closure communications operate in parallel. Using the OCWEBCARD disables the Serial Communications of the DB-9.

! CAUTION

To maintain safety (SELV) barriers and for electromagnetic compatibility, signal cables should be segregated and run separate from all other power cables, where applicable.

PSITM specifications

The Liebert PSITM is an advanced power protection system designed to ensure the reliability and efficiency of critical systems in data centers, industrial applications, and mission-critical environments. As the demand for uninterrupted power supply continues to grow, the Liebert PSI serves as an indispensable asset.

One of the main features of the Liebert PSI is its online double-conversion technology. This method guarantees a continuous supply of clean and stable power to connected loads by converting incoming AC power to DC, then back to AC. This process eliminates power disturbances such as voltage sags, surges, and harmonics, ensuring that sensitive equipment operates without interruption.

In addition to its robust power protection capabilities, the Liebert PSI offers scalable solutions to meet varying power requirements. Ranging from 5 kVA to 40 kVA, it can be configured for single or three-phase operation. This flexibility allows businesses to tailor the system to match their specific needs, whether they are expanding data center operations or simply upgrading existing infrastructure.

Another notable characteristic of the Liebert PSI is its energy efficiency. The unit is designed to operate with a high efficiency of up to 94%, which not only reduces operational costs but also minimizes the environmental impact. Moreover, it features an eco-mode that optimizes energy use during non-critical operations without sacrificing reliability.

The Liebert PSI is equipped with advanced communication and management capabilities. It includes an intuitive LCD display for real-time monitoring, enabling users to access vital information about the unit's performance and status. Additionally, it supports various communication protocols such as SNMP and Modbus, allowing for seamless integration into existing management systems.

Furthermore, the Liebert PSI is designed with an emphasis on modularity, allowing for easy upgrades and maintenance. This modular approach reduces downtime and enhances serviceability, ensuring that the system remains reliable throughout its lifecycle.

In summary, the Liebert PSITM stands out as a comprehensive power protection solution that combines cutting-edge technology, energy efficiency, and user-friendly features. Its commitment to safeguarding critical systems against power disturbances makes it a vital component in the infrastructure of any modern data center or industrial setting.
