NTERFACES
The Liebert STS2 monitoring system offers several choices for communications.
The RS-232 terminal port is standard on all units. The port is located inside the front door, to the left
of the touch screen/LED front panel mounting as shown in
Figure 28
. This port is primarily used as
an alternate user interface to configure, control, and diagnose the system, especially for systems that
do not include the HMI touch screen. Commands for the RS-232 port are shown in
Table 9
.
Several other communications options are also available. Those options are located a Communica-
tions compartment to the right of the touch screen/LED front panel and are accessible when the front
panel door is open. See
Figures 21
and
22
for the location of the communications options.
Connections to the communication ports are made by wiring to terminal boards located in the Com-
munications compartment. The communications options listed below reference the control wiring
drawing for each option.
• Liebert IntelliSlot Web/485 Card With Adapter (IS-WEB485ADPT) (optional)— the card provides
connectivity to any TCP/IP-based Ethernet network to allow the device to communicate with net-
work management systems (NMS) via SNMP. Events can be transmitted to the NMS to provide
remote status monitoring, plus fault and alarm detection. The card includes an RJ-45 port for an
Ethernet connection, via Category 5 cable.
The Liebert IS-WEB485ADPT can also integrate the system with an existing Building Manage-
ment System (BMS) or out-of-band monitoring, using Modbus, a standard multi-drop protocol.
The card has redundant communication paths that make it possible to connect to a BMS using
Modbus while simultaneously communicating to an NMS through SNMP.
See
Figure 27
for more information on the Liebert IS-WEB485ADPT. If you have questions
about the card, refer to the user guide, SL-52615, available at Liebert’s Web site,

• Input Contact Isolator (ICI) Board (optional) — provides an interface for up to eight user inputs.
External messages and alarms can be routed to the unit, via the ICI.
See
Configuring the Input Contact Isolator Settings on page 95
for instructions on config-
uring the connections. See
Figure 25
for wiring details.
• Programmable Relay Board (PRB) (optional) — up to two PRBs can be installed in the Liebert
STS2 to route Liebert STS2 events to external devices.
See
Configuring the Programmable Relay Board Settings on page 97
for default settings
and instructions for reconfiguring the relays. See
Figure 24
for wiring details.
• Comms Board (optional) — includes a terminal block to provide a DTE connection to an external
modem. This board also provides a direct connection to a Liebert SiteScan terminal, via an
RS-422. Liebert SiteLink-12 or Liebert SiteLink-4 is required for Liebert SiteScan to communi-
cate with the Liebert STS2. See
Figure 26
for wiring details.
Data link requirements are Full Duplex Asynchronous RS-232 format.
Communications options are also discussed in
6.0 - Options
.
12.1 Using the RS-232 Port
The RS-232 port is configured with a baud rate of 9600 with 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and no
hardware handshaking.
