UPS Connections
Communication Interface (Cont'd)
RS-232C
The RS-232C serial communication interface is available through a DB9 female connector
located on the back side of the UPS (see page 44 for DB9 connector location). This
interface allows control of the UPS from a personal computer running special Toshiba 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:
