DHCP on the network. In the case that there is no DHCP server available in the network – for example, when you are connecting GMAC-5 directly to a computer – or in any other case of failure to set the IP address automatically, the device falls back to the default address of 192.168.0.198, subnet class C. -

Page 11: Ups / Power System
To monitor a UPS or other power system, a serial connection to the device in question must be established. This is done by connecting the device to be monitored to the serial connector on the GMAC-5’s rear panel, and configuring the connection in GMAC-5, using the “Serial” option in the “Configuration” menu. -

AMATRONIC LECTRONIC NDUSTRIES Figure 6: UPS actual values Figure 7: Issuing commands to a UPS or other power system 3.2.2 The log menu shows you the total amount of events saved in the log, and will offer to either download the log to your computer (as a csv file) or clear it. -
Page 13: Additional Features
If a UPS is being monitored by GMAC-5, and that UPS is providing power to computers, you can instruct GMAC-5 to shut down any of those computers in an orderly fashion in the event of a prolonged ac input failure, before the UPS’s battery is exhausted. To achieve that you must install Shutdown Agent software on the computers to be shut down. -
Page 14: Using Bootloader Mode
NDUSTRIES 4.2.1 Using bootloader mode Using a web browser, put the GMAC-5 in bootloader mode by pressing the “Switch to bootloader” button in the "Configuration" webpage (see Figure 8). Then follow the simple screen prompts to perform the required function. -

Page 16: Configuration
It is possible that when switching to bootloader mode the device will receive a different IP address. In bootloader mode GMAC-5 takes its IP address as per the user’s instruction in the “Actual IP address” field in the “Configuration > Network” screen (see section 5.1 “Network configuration”). -
Page 17: Network Configuration
Use the “Network” configuration function to specify the details of your connection to the local Ethernet network.
