4.6 UPS remote control functions
Connectivity Cards
Connectivity cards allow the UPS to communicate in a variety of networking environments and with different types of
devices. The 5PX models have one available communication bay for the following connectivity cards:
Gigabit Network card
(
Network-M2
) : provides a Gigabit Ethernet connection and enables secure UPS monitoring
over HTTPS web browser interface, SNMP v1/v3 protocol and email alarms. In addition, up to 3 Environmental
Monitoring Probes can be attached to obtain humidity, temperature, smoke alarm, and security information.
Industrial Gateway card
(
INDGW-M2
) : Provides Modbus RTU and Modbus TCP communication support in addition
to the same secure UPS monitoring, management and sensor capability as the Gigabit Network card.
Relay-MS card
: provides isolated dry contact (Form-C) relay outputs for UPS status: Utility failure, Battery low, UPS
alarm/OK, or on Bypass.
Programmable Signal Inputs
The 5PX incorporates two programmable signal inputs: one Remote Power Off (RPO) input terminal, one Remote On/Off
(ROO) input terminal, one RS-232 input (pin-4).
Signal inputs can be configured (see Settings > Comm settings > Signal Input) to have one of the following functions:
