UPS POWER MANAGEMENT

Viewing Status@aGlance
Status@aGlance is a page that provides a simple, intuitive way to view UPS status information and is accessed through a Status@aGlance link on the Summary page. It changes the background color of the page to reflect the UPS status:

S Green indicates normal UPS operation. S Yellow indicates the UPS is responding to a problem (the UPS is on
battery during a power outage; the UPS has one or more alarms present; or the UPS has been bypassed).

S Red indicates a low battery condition and shutdown is imminent. S Black indicates a loss of communication between the UPS and the
ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card. If you leave the browser pointed to this page, it automatically updates when new UPS information is available. To return to the Summary page, point and click the mouse pointer anywhere within the colored background area.

MultiView Software
The Status@aGlance pages of several ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Cards may be monitored simultaneously by installing the MultiView software on a PC with Microsoft Windows. The software is included on the CD-ROM supplied with the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card or it can be downloaded from the link on the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card Summary page. The MultiView software works in tandem with Internet Explorer to discover and display multiple browser windows, each representing a different ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card. You also have the flexibility to pick other Web pages as presented by the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card during configuration. MultiView software can also monitor the Status@aGlance feature within the LanSafe Power Management Software.

Automatic Shutdown of UPS-Protected Computers

NetWatch client software supports remote UPS monitoring and automatic shutdown of UPS-protected computer systems and is available on the supplied CD-ROM or from [Link] Clients are available for the following operating systems:

S Microsoft Windows S Novell NetWare S Linux S UNIX S Mac OS X

Each NetWatch client uses its IP address to register with a specified ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card via the network. Once a client has registered, any change in UPS status is communicated to NetWatch. Depending on the operating system, NetWatch typically alerts the user(s) whenever the UPS begins supplying AC power from its batteries (for example, the AC line fails). Then, if AC line power does not return and the remaining battery time is low, NetWatch takes over and completes an operating system shutdown prior to the UPS running out of battery power. Settings found in the UPS Event Actions and UPS Shutdown page and the Restart Settings page are related to the automatic shutdown of the UPS-protected computer system using NetWatch. By default, the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card initiates an automatic operating system shutdown only during a low battery condition. The ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Card (firmware v2.03 and higher) no longer instructs the UPS to power off after the operating system shutdown.

NOTE Serial pass-through functionality is available only with the ConnectUPS Card firmware v3.20 and higher (with older, non-RoHS hardware) and v4.20 and higher (with RoHS hardware). Updates to the ConnectUPS Card firmware are available at [Link]

During normal operation, the ConnectUPS Card controls the communication path to the UPS and allows network-based access to UPS data through the Web and SNMP. Some situations require direct serial communication to the UPS in a pass-through mode, such as:

S The UPS firmware requires a field upgrade with a 9600 baud serial
port connection to the UPS.

S The user wants to run a local copy of LanSafe software with serial
communication to the UPS. The card's Normal mode of operation must be disabled for Serial Pass-Through mode to be available.

Reconfiguring the Card for Serial Pass-Through Mode

NOTE In Serial Pass-Through mode, communication through the ConnectUPS Card Ethernet port stops, and any existing connections (such as to NetWatch software clients or SNMP management tools) cease. However, the Ethernet switch functionality of the ConnectUPS Card continues to function.

The following steps disable Normal mode by changing the switches on the ConnectUPS Card and restarting the card in Serial Pass-Through mode. To reconfigure the card for Serial Pass-Through mode: 1. Note the current position of DIP switches on the card [the default setting for both switches is the 0 (off) position]. Write them here for later reference. DIP Switch 1 _____ 0 (off) _____ 1 (on) DIP Switch 2 _____ 0 (off) _____ 1 (on) 2. Set both DIP switches to the 1 (on) position for Serial Pass-Through mode.

Two-Year Limited Warranty (USA and Canada)

Eaton Connectivity Devices
WARRANTOR: The warrantor for the limited warranties set forth herein is Eaton Corporation, an Ohio Corporation company (Company). LIMITED WARRANTY: This limited warranty (this Warranty) applies only to the original End-User (the End-User) of any 3, 5, and 9 series Connectivity Devices (the Product) purchased on or after June 1, 2004, and cannot be transferred. This Warranty applies even in the event that the Product is initially sold by Company for resale to an End-User. LIMITED WARRANTY PERIOD: The period covered by this Warranty for the Product installed [and currently located] in the fifty (50) United States, the District of Columbia, and Canada is twenty-four (24) months from the date of purchase. WHAT THIS LIMITED WARRANTY COVERS: The warrantor warrants that the Product (the Warranted Item) is free from defects in material and workmanship. If, in the opinion of Company, a Warranted Item is defective and the defect is within the terms of this Warranty, Company's sole obligation will be to repair or replace such defective Warranted Item (including by providing service, parts, and labor, as applicable), at the option of Company. PROCEDURES FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF WARRANTED ITEMS: The Warranted Item will be repaired or replaced at a Company site or such other location as determined by Company.
If the Warranted Item is to be replaced by Company, and the End-User supplies a credit card number or purchase order for the value of the replacement Product, Company will use commercially reasonable business efforts to ship (via standard ground shipment and at no cost to the End-User) the replacement Warranted Item to the End-User within one (1) business day after Company receives notice of the warranty claim. In such case, the End-User must return (at Company's expense) the defective Warranted Item to Company in the same packaging as the replacement Warranted Item received by the End-User or as otherwise instructed by Company. If Company does not receive the defective Warranted Item, Company will either charge the End-User's credit card, or send the End-User an invoice (which the End-User agrees to pay), for the value of the replacement Product. If the Warranted Item is to be replaced by Company, but the End-User is unwilling or unable to supply a credit card number or purchase order for the value of the replacement Product, Company will use commercially reasonable business efforts to ship (via standard ground shipment and at no cost to the End-User) the replacement Warranted Item to the End-User within one (1) business day after Company receives the defective Product from the End-User. In any case, Company will provide shipping instructions and will pay its designated carrier for all shipping charges for return of defective equipment and replacement of Warranted Items. Any returned Warranted Item or parts that are replaced may be new or reconditioned. All Warranted Items returned to Company and all parts replaced by Company shall become the property of Company.

WHAT THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER: This Warranty does not cover any defects or damages
caused by: (a) failure to properly store the Product before installation; (b) shipping and delivery of the Product if shipping is FOB Factory; (c) neglect, accident, abuse, misuse, misapplication, or incorrect installation; (d) repair or alteration not authorized in writing by Company personnel or performed by an authorized Company Customer Service Engineer or Agent; (e) improper testing, operation, maintenance, adjustment, or modification of any kind not authorized in writing by Company personnel or performed by an authorized Company Customer Service Engineer or Agent; or (f) use of the Product under other than normal operating conditions or in a manner inconsistent with the Product's labels or instructions. This Warranty is not valid if the Product's serial numbers have been removed or are illegible. Any Warranted Items repaired or replaced pursuant to this Warranty will be warranted for the remaining portion of the original Warranty subject to all the terms thereof.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, COMPANY SPECIFICALLY DOES NOT WARRANT SOFTWARE (SUCH AS LINUX) THAT WAS CREATED USING AN OPEN SOURCE MODEL OR IS DISTRIBUTED PURSUANT TO AN OPEN SOURCE LICENSE. THIS WARRANTY IS THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE WARRANTY OFFERED BY COMPANY WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES AND, EXCEPT FOR SUCH FOREGOING WARRANTY COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CORRECTION OF NON-CONFORMITIES IN THE MANNER AND FOR THE PERIOD OF TIME PROVIDED ABOVE SHALL CONSTITUTE COMPANY'S SOLE LIABILITY AND END-USER'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR FAILURE OF COMPANY TO MEET ITS WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS, WHETHER CLAIMS OF THE END-USER ARE BASED IN CONTRACT, IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR STRICT LIABILITY), OR OTHERWISE. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY: The remedies of the End-User set forth herein are exclusive and are the sole remedies
for any failure of Company to comply with its obligations hereunder.

The total cumulative liability of Company hereunder whether the claims are based in contract (including indemnity), in tort (including negligence or strict liability) or otherwise, shall not exceed the price of the Product on which such liability is based. Company shall not be responsible for failure to provide service or parts due to causes beyond Company's reasonable control.

END-USER'S OBLIGATIONS: In order to receive the benefits of this Warranty, the End-User must use the Product
in a normal way; follow the Product's user's guide; and protect against further damage to the Product if there is a covered defect.

OTHER LIMITATIONS: Company's obligations under this Warranty are expressly conditioned upon receipt by Company of all payments due to it (including interest charges, if any). During such time as Company has not received payment of any amount due to it for the Product, in accordance with the contract terms under which the Product is sold, Company shall have no obligation under this Warranty. Also during such time, the period of this Warranty shall continue to run and the expiration of this Warranty shall not be extended upon payment of any overdue or unpaid amounts.
