From the list "Select Model" select the model OT1200 UPS. The item selected in the field “Port” (default COM1) does not make any dif- ference since it is not used for this purpose.
User's manual – C6 ECON In the configuration panel, it is possible to programme the interven- tion time of the UPS. The minimum time that can be selected is 2 minutes. This means that if the line power supply is not restored within this time, the oper- ating system will run the programme specified in the box below (if in- serted) and will then proceed with system shutdown.
As the line voltage increases, the system goes into the phase of acti- vation and actual power on of the PC, and charging and/or maintain- ing of the UPS. Since the status of the UPS is controlled by the C6 ECON system, via the signal ATX PS_ON, its activation takes place when the C6 ECON system has powered on normally.
