Communication Port Configuration

To establish communication between the UPS and a computer, connect
the communication cable from a UPS communication port to your
computer’s communication port.

If the computer is running power management software, the
communication cable between the UPS and the computer enables a
data exchange. The software polls the UPS for detailed information on
the status of the power environment. If a power emergency occurs, the
software initiates the saving of all data and an orderly shutdown of the
equipment.

There are two serial communication ports labeled on the UPS rear
panel. See Table 2 and Table 3 for pin assignments. You can configure
communication parameters, such as baud rate, through the System
Setup Menu (see page 41).
