The RS-232C serial communication interface is available through a DB9 female connector located
on the inside of the UPS. This interface allows control of the UPS from a computer network
running TOSHIBA RemotEyeII
™ software. The computer and the UPS are connected through a
serial RS-232C communication port. The available data from the UPS, via the RS-232C
communication link, is shown below:

4.5.3 UPS Shutdown (via RS-232C)
When the UPS is operating from its internal batteries, a 'shutdown' order can be sent to the
UPS instructing it to turn OFF after a user-specified amount of time. This function can
allow you to stop discharging the UPS batteries after an orderly system shutdown has
been completed. The UPS can be programmed to turn OFF up to 8 minutes after the
'shutdown' command is given. This command can be cancelled before the specified time
has elapsed by following the directions listed on the RS-232C screen.
