For 3K Tower Type 230V Only
2.3 Communication Port and PP Contact Card Explanation
The communication port on the rear panel of the UPS is a true RS232 serial
type. It may be connected to a computer and allows the computer to monitor
the status of UPS, and control the operation of the UPS, via the Power
Monitoring software. The Power Monitoring Software is for the Windows
environment, such as Windows 3.1, Windows 95 & 98, Windows NT. For
other applications, such as Novell NetWare, Unix, etc., please contact your
local distributor for a proper solution.

3.2. Selecting Installation Position
The CPE On-Line Series is intended to be install in a temperature controlled
environment that is free of conductive contaminants. Select a location, which
will provide good air circulation for the UPS. Avoid locations near heating
devices, water or excessive humidity, or where the UPS is exposed to direct
sunlight. Route power cords so they cannot be walked on or damaged.
