Communication

This chapter describes the communication features of the Powerware 9395 650–825 kVA UPS and provides information about connecting hardware and using Terminal mode. For terminal wiring information, see paragraph 3.2.3 on page 3−19 and paragraph 4.9 on page 4−31. For location of the customer interface panels and terminals see Figure 4-18on page 4−20 and Figure 4-27through Figure 4-30starting on page 4−32.

8.1X−Slot Cards

The Powerware 9395 UPS has four standard, factory-installed X−Slot communication bays. See Figure 4-27on page 4−32 for bay locations. The UPS is compatible with the following X−Slot cards (see Figure 8-1):

SModbus Card – provides direct integration of UPS information (meters and status) to a Building Management System (BMS) using the Modbus RTU protocol.

SConnectUPS−X Web/SNMP Card – provides remote monitoring through a Web browser interface, e-mail, and a network management system (NMS) using SNMP; connects to a twisted-pair Ethernet (10/100BaseT) network. It has a built−in switching hub that allows three additional network devices to be connected to the network without the requirement of additional network drops.

NOTE The Modem Card cannot be installed in X−Slot 2.

SModem Card – provides

modem communication directly to cell phones and pagers.

SRelay Interface Card (AS/400) – has isolated dry contact (Form−C) relay outputs for UPS status: Utility failure, Low battery, UPS alarm/OK, or On bypass when interfacing with IBM AS/400 computers, other relay connected computers, and industrial applications.

SIndustrial Relay Card (IRC) – indicates the operating status of the UPS system using the customer’s monitoring equipment. The IRC uses four isolated normally−open or normally−closed dry relay contacts to indicate the UPS status. Normal, Bypass, Battery, and Alarm modes can be monitored.

SPowerware Hot Sync CAN Bridge Card – provides connectivity for operational mode control and metering of a parallel system at any UPM in the system. In addition, this card can be used to connect optional system monitoring devices, such as a Remote Monitor Panel II (RMP II), a Relay Interface Module II (RIM II), or a Supervisory Contact Module II (SCM II) to the UPS.

SPower Xpert® Gateway Card – provides a data gateway from the UPS to the Power Xpert software; provides remote monitoring through a Web browser interface, e−mail, and a network management system using SNMP; connects to a twisted−pair Ethernet (10/100BaseT) network. Modbus TCP support provides direct integration of the PDU’s parameters to a Building Management System (BMS). It has a built−in switching hub that allows one additional network device to be connected to the network without the requirement of an additional network drop.
