MGE UPS Systems pulsar EX15 - Manual (Page 13)

MGE UPS SYSTEMS Pulsar EX : 51032306XT/BB xi
software supplied with
Pulsar EX15 to EX40
To meet the different operating requirements
of your UPS, Pulsar EX is delivered in the
standard version with 2 MGE UPS SYSTEMS
software programs:
c EX-Driver software for Windows
(on 3.5" diskette);
c Solution-Pac TM network software
(on CD-ROM).
EX-Driver for Windows
This is the simple and efficient solution for
communicating with the UPS from a simple
Windows workstation. EX-Driver is
compatible with Windows 3.1x and Windows
95, for dialogue with the UPS via a serial
connection for various needs:
c customisation of the UPS operating
mode: EX-Driver, thanks to the EX-Tuner
utility, can be used to change certain UPS
operating parameters if the standard factory
settings are not ideal for the application or
operating conditions.
This makes it possible to modify the output
voltage, battery-test frequency, startup and
shutdown sequences, etc.;
c UPS monitoring from a Windows
workstation and system safety:
EX-Driver UPS Manager 3 software can
display the UPS status, warn the user if a
problem arises, and automatically guarantee
system safety.
The many possibilities available include:
v supervision of operating parameters on a
graphic interface (display of battery charge
level, remaining battery time and UPS load
level). These values can be recorded
periodically in a tracking file,
v messages to the user in case of AC
power outages or UPS problems and
recordings of electrical events in a tracking
file,
v in the case of long-term AC power
outages, automatic shutdown of the system
and UPS, followed by automatic restart of
the UPS (and hence system reboot) on
return of AC power,
v PowerShare™ functions with UM-
Switch™ option.
Solution-Pac™, user-friendly
UPS management software
The protection offered by a UPS is only
really complete and effective when
associated with powerful software functions
designed to:
v alert users and operators of power supply
problems,
v automate system shutdowns,
v remotely supervise and control the UPS.
For this reason MGE UPS SYSTEMS has
created Solution-Pac™, the software
package which contains everything you
need to ensure the reliability of one or more
systems and to supervise one or more UPS
from a local or remote workstation, including:
v connecting Pulsar EX to a server
(UM-Agent),
v remotely supervising and managing
performance (UM-Console),
v automatically shutting down one or more
servers in an heterogeneous environment
(UM-Client),
v feeding back alerts to an SNMP
supervision platform.
And because you really need these
functions, MGE UPS SYSTEMS includes
Solution-Pac™ with your Pulsar EX UPS.
