Interfaces and Communication 

8.1 

Computer

 

interfaces RS232 and USB 

Different  interfaces  are  available  for  control  of  the  UPS  and  the 
convenient  read-out  of  status  indications  and  measured  values. 
The interface protocol is designed for operation with the shutdown 
and  UPS  management  software  "CompuWatch"  from  AEG.  To 
connect  your  UPS  to  the  PC,  use  the  RS232  or  USB 
communication cable included with the delivery. 

 

The  USB  and  RS232  communication  interfaces  are 
mutually exclusive, i.e. either USB or RS232 is used. 
Assignment 

of 

the 

RS232 

Sub-D9 

jack:

 

2 = TxD; 3 = RxD; 5 = GND 

8.2 

Communication slot 

The back of the UPS also features a cover (see Item 14 on pageSeite 
26),  the  removal  of  which  allows  the  installation  of  optionally 
available communication components, e.g.: 

Relay  card:

  Plug-in  card  with  status  indications,  implemented 

via floating relay contacts (NC or NO contacts) 

SNMP  card:

  Plug-in  card  for  direct  integration  of  the  UPS  into 

the Ethernet network via RJ45 (TCP/IP) and additional possibility 
for connection and the manageability of external sensors 
Details can be found in the respective description of the option. 
Other cards are currently being devised. 

 

The  communication  slot  can  be  used  at  the  same 
time as the RS232 or USB interface. 

8.3 

Shutdown and UPS management software 

The "CompuWatch" software, which was specially developed by 
AEG  Software  for  these  purposes,  continuously  monitors  the 
mains supply and the status of the UPS. 
Together  with the  "intelligent" UPS, it ensures the  availability  of 
the IT components and data integrity.
