ATON NTELLIGENT
Each 9E UPS ships with Eaton Intelligent Power Software suite. To begin installing, see the instructions
accompanying the Software suite CD.
Eaton Software suite provides up-to-date graphics of UPS power and system data and power flow.
It also gives you a complete record of critical power events, and it notifies you of important UPS or power

If there is a power outage and the 9E UPS battery power becomes low, Eaton Software suite can automatically shut down
your computer system to protect your data before the UPS shutdown occurs.
