Powerware 650825 kVA Powerware LanSafe Power Management Software, Remote Notification

COMMUNICATION

The eNotify Service relies on a ConnectUPS−X Web/SNMP Card (or Power Xpert card) installed with the UPS sending one−way status and event e−mails to Powerware Remote Monitoring servers that analyze and store the data. Those servers also take the appropriate actions of sending notifications and reports. The ConnectUPS Card gathers information from the UPS directly and from any external sensors that are attached. The card also records all events that are generated by the UPS. This data is stored within the non−volatile memory logs on the ConnectUPS Card.

The eNotify Service runs on common protocols and transport mechanisms, making the connectivity between the Powerware 9395 UPS and the Powerware Remote Monitoring servers easy to set up. By using common e−mail transport mechanism, you do not have to open your network to proprietary or potentially unsecure protocols and transports.

8.3Powerware LanSafe Power Management Software

Each Powerware 9395 UPS ships with LanSafe Power Management Software. To install the Powerware LanSafe software, see the instructions accompanying the Software Suite CD.

Powerware LanSafe software uses an RS−232 serial link to communicate with the UPS. The software provides up−to−date graphics of UPS power and system data and power flow, a complete record of critical power events, and notification of important UPS or power information. With custom views for monitoring status and metering information, various user groups can select the most useful view for their specific needs.

8.4Remote Notification

For connection and setup of a modem, or to enable Remote Notify and Call Home features within the UPS, contact an Eaton service representative (see page 1−8).

Remote Notification allows the UPS to use a standard off-the-shelf PC modem as a telephone interface. The features provided by this option are:

SCall to a remote terminal or pager based on programmable events and alarms

SFour separate, programmable notification groups (phone numbers)

SAutomatic answering (user−configurable) for access to the Terminal mode of the UPS

SRemote and local ability to clear Call Out alarms and events

SError detection and correction for misconfigured and disconnected modems.

Remote Notification provides the user with the option of receiving alarms and notices at a remote location. Using the Terminal mode, the user calls the UPS to perform basic monitoring. In the event of a UPS alarm or notice, the user is notified at the remote location. The UPS calls through the modem to the user’s computer or pager and leaves a message.

Remote Notification is an extension of the Terminal mode with the additional support algorithms necessary to control an external modem. Connection to the UPS is made when a user calls the UPS on the phone. The user has exactly the same capabilities as if using a terminal connected directly to an RS−232 port.
