The adapter may be configured via Telnet, HTTP (Web browser) or serial connection (terminal). For
normal operation, at least one network connection (Ethernet) is required.
By utilizing the RCCMD send function (see below), the SNMP adapter can be used for an automatic
network-wide shutdown or just for informing connected users. The shutdown procedure can be
initiated on a low residual battery autonomy time (downtime) or by a countdown timer that is started
at the beginning of the alarm. A shutdown is, therefore, possible without extra input from the operator
and is fully software-controlled.
The small (125x70 mm) External SNMP adapter comes with following interfaces:

For detailed information please see Software Manual provided with the PMC-Software CD
ROM.RCCMD - Remote Console Command module for a multi-server shutdown. This stand-alone
software module is designed to receive and execute a command issued by a remote device. Thanks
to RCCMD it is possible to execute a shutdown in a heterogeneous multiplatform network. The new
release RCCMD2 is an application available for all Operating Systems, analogous to PMC-Software.
Our SNMP Interfaces are compatible to RCCMD.

1. RJ-45 connector for 10/100 Base-T (autoswitchable)
2. Serial Port for configuration (COM2) or optional ModBus
interface.
3. Error/Link LED for UPS status
4. Aux Port
5. DIP Switch
6. Serial Port to the UPS (COM1)
7. DC Supply (9 VDC or 9-36 VDC supply, depending on model);
The Internal SNMP-Card can be inserted into an appropriate
extension slot of the PMC. This adapter communicates via the
serial port of the UPS and makes a direct multiple server shutdown
possible without additional SNMP management software.
