Page 23: Additional Features
If a UPS is being monitored by GMAC5, and that UPS is providing power to computers, you can instruct GMAC5 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. -

If an Internet-based time server is defined, make sure that GMAC5 has access to the Internet. "Set current time from SNTP server" will simply try to access the server immediately and return a reply. -
Page 29: Configure A Serial Connection
NDUSTRIES Configure a serial connection The “Serial” function is used to describe GMAC5’s communication link with a UPS or other power system. Select the protocol and additional serial communication settings. Use the GMAC5 compatibility table (Table 9) to find out what protocol is supported by your device. -
Page 30: Defining A Modbus Connection
GMAC5’s serial D9 port. In such a setup, GMAC5 is a channel through which the computer or BMS sends queries to the connected power system. In these transactions, the computer or BMS is the master and GMAC5 is the slave. -
Page 31: Defining An Snmp Connection
Interval at which GMAC5 will send “keep alive” messages to the SNMP management Heartbeat time application. You can allow GMAC5 to accept SNMP requests from any host, or use the “Add SNMP manager” field to specify the IP address(es) of authorized requestors. Up to ten SNMP Managers managers can be specified. -
