20 Software

The UPS is recognized as a "Human Interface Device" (HID-Battery, HID-VCom) under
Windows when connected via USB. As an HID battery, no additional software is needed
to shut down the operating system and can be controlled using the internal battery
settings of the operating system. If a shutdown based on time is desired, the software
"UPSI HID-Battery Parameter Settings" can be used to enable the function and set the
desired hold-up time. The shutdown of the operating system is completely controlled by
the UPSI hardware, the software can remain closed after setting the parameters.
Furthermore, the UPSI has a so-called virtual COM port via USB and a physical RS232
(light) interface, which enables read out of further data. Please find a description of the
communication protocol on page 58ff.
Note:
If other battery or power systems (ACPI / USB) are used in the system, conflicts can occur.
These devices should be disabled, which can only be probably achieved with a BIOS
update to remove the existing battery functions.
