3.5  SYSTEM SECTION 

 
 

3.5.1  Network page 

Network configuration of the card – refer to the NETWORK CONFIGURATION chapter within this manual. 
 
Note that the settings on this page will only take effect after a reboot of the card. 
 
 
 

3.5.2  Date&Time page 

Through this page it is possible to configure the adapter date and time settings. The SNMP/Web adapter 
features an internal real-time-clock, and provides different ways to synchronise its clock with the actual 
time: 

• 

NTP server

: the card will periodically re-synch its internal date and time with the NTP server 

• 

Manual

: the card date and time are set by the user  

• 

Browser

: the card date and time will synch with the browser time 

 
Regardless of the chosen configuration, make sure the correct timezone is selected. The timezone 
setting also affects autocorrection for the daylight saving time.  
 
On 3-ph UPS it is also possible to synchronise the UPS internal clock to an external reference via NTP 
protocol. 
 
 
 

3.5.3  RCCMD page 

This page shows the current configuration for the Network Shutdown (RCCMD) functionality. The various 
RCCMD clients are listed, with three action buttons: 

• 

Edit

: edit the RCCMD Client configuration 

• 

Test

: send an RCCMD Test Message to the Client 

• 

Del

: delete the RCCMD Client  

New RCCMD Clients can be added with the 

Add

 button. 

 
The page to Add/Edit RCCMD clients requires to specify the following information:  

• 

Client

: RCCMD Client IP Address or hostname 

• 

Port

: RCCMD Port on the Client, default is 6003 

• 

Condition

: three different shutdown conditions can be chosen: 

o 

After 

X

 minutes on battery 

o 

At 

X

 minutes remaining of battery autonomy 

o 

When the UPS signals a Low Battery condition 

 

NOTE

: Although the web interface accepts hostnames to identify RCCMD Clients, it is strongly 

recommended to identify the clients with their IP address. Using symbolic hostnames may cause the 
network shutdown to fail in case the DNS server is not available, unreachable or mis-configured
