Chapter 10 - Integrating With An Unterruptible Power Supply - Avaya Octel 50 Installation Manual

Integrating with an Unterruptible Power Supply
During a power failure, the Octel 50 system files and the Octel 50 PC can be severely
damaged. Attaching an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) provides protection against
failures of a relatively short duration. Note, however, if there is a major power failure that
exceeds the life of the UPS's battery, the Octel 50 PC can lose power and the Octel 50
system and PC can be damaged.
UPS Integration enables the Octel 50 system to monitor the UPS's status and recognize a
potential interruption in operation before it occurs. The UPS Integrator can shut down the
Octel 50 system to maintain system integrity, and then restart the Octel 50 system when
power returns.
The steps in this section help you:
•
Understand UPS integration
•
Run the UPS Integrator utility
A UPS is optional on the Octel 50 system. The UPS is not supplied nor is the UPS itself
supported by technical support.
