You can set the card parameters through the COM port even if
the network is not connected.
You cannot use the Ethernet port for configuration.
When the card is not connected to the network, it continuously
attempts to connect. When the connection is established, the
LEDs indicate the status.
If you are not sure how to know if the UPS is in normal mode,
refer to the User's Guide for your UPS.
