Communication
Modbus Card - provides direct integration of UPS information (meters and status) to a
Building Management System (BMS) using the Modbus RTU protocol.
ConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card - provides remote monitoring through a Web browser
interface, e-mail, and a network management system using SNMP; connects to a
twisted-pair Ethernet (10/100BaseT) network. It has a built-in switching hub that allows
three additional network devices to be connected to the network without the
requirement of additional network drops. This card is provided as standard equipment
with the UPS.
The Modem Card cannot be installed in X-Slot 2. If the UPS has only two
NOTE
X-Slots, move the ConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card to X-Slot 2 and install the Modem
Card in X-Slot 1.
Modem Card - provides "out-of-band" remote notification and monitoring using modem
communication directly to cell phones and pagers.
Relay Interface Card (AS/400) - has isolated dry contact (Form-C) relay outputs for UPS
status: Utility failure, Low battery, UPS alarm/OK, or On bypass when interfacing with
IBM
AS/400 computers, other relay connected computers, and industrial applications.
®
Industrial Relay Card (IRC) - indicates the operating status of the UPS system using the
customer's monitoring equipment. The IRC uses four isolated normally-open or
normally-closed dry relay contacts to indicate the UPS status. Normal, Bypass, Battery,
and Alarm modes can be monitored.
Powerware Hot Sync Computer Area Network (CAN) Bridge Card - provides connectivity
for operational mode control and metering of a parallel system at any UPM in the
system. In addition, this card can be used to connect optional system monitoring
devices, such as a Remote Monitor Panel II, a Relay Interface Module II, or a Supervisory
Contact Module II to the UPS.
