9-4 About the included UPS monitoring software
Using the included UPS monitoring software allows you to automatically save data files and shut down your
computer when a power failure occurs. However, make settings so that the time from the occurrence of the
power failure until computer shutdown is less than the maximum backup time. For more details, refer to the
instruction manual and online help for the UPS monitoring software.
Using the included UPS monitoring software also enables you to change the unit’s operation mode settings,
use additional functions, perform scheduling operations, etc.
Explanation
Starting operation during a scheduled stop with UPS monitoring software
●
If the unit starts operation during a scheduled stop period, turn the power switch OFF once, and then
turn it back ON.
You can start the unit manually.
In this case, the next scheduled ON operation is cancelled.
Auto restart after OS shutdown by UPS monitoring software
●
In the event of a power failure, some PC models (see *1 below) automatically restart immediately after
the completion of the OS shutdown processing by the UPS monitoring software.
In this case, the unit stops during restart or after startup, possibly damaging files and/or the hard disk.
This problem can be avoided by disabling POWER MANAGEMENT in the BIOS settings.
*1) PC models: This problem has been reported with MICRON Millenia Mme.
●
When the PC does not start up automatically, select the “System startup at power restoration” setting
(example: “Restore On AC/Power Loss) in the BIOS settings of your PC, and change to a “System
startup after power restoration” setting (example: “Power On). Individual BIOS setting methods and/or
displays may differ depending on the PC. For more information, refer to your PC instruction manual or the
technical support center for your PC.
●
When considering a system with automatic startup at power restoration, choose a PC that satisfies the
condition shown below. For more information on PC operation when input power is supplied, consult
your PC instruction manual or contact the PC technical support center.
<Condition>
Without pressing the power switch, the PC starts up when input power is supplied.
●
After shutdown processing in the event of a power failure, the unit restarts automatically and supplies
power once power is restored.
If you do not want the devices connected to the UPS to start up, turn OFF their switches.
●
The automatic restart setting can be disabled in the included UPS monitoring software.
