Installing ERM Configurator with a ConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card
During normal operation, the ConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card controls
the communication path to the UPS and allows network-based access to
UPS data through the Web and SNMP. Some situations require direct
serial communication to the UPS in a pass-through mode, such as
running the ERM Configurator tool.
The following instructions disable the card’s Normal mode of operation
so that Serial Pass-Through mode is available.
Placing the Card into Serial Pass-Through Mode
NOTE
Serial pass-through functionality is available only with the ConnectUPS-X
Web/SNMP Card firmware v3.20 and higher (with older, non-RoHS hardware) and v4.20 and
higher (with RoHS hardware). Updates to the ConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card firmware are
available at www.powerware.com/avaya.
To place the ConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card into Serial Pass-Through
mode:
1.
Note the current position of DIP switches on the card [the default
setting for both switches is the
0
(off) position]. Write them here for
later reference.
DIP Switch 1 _____
0
(off) _____
1
(on)
DIP Switch 2 _____
0
(off) _____
1
(on)
2.
Set both DIP switches to the
1
(on) position for Serial Pass-Through
mode.
3.
Using a pen or paperclip, press the RESET switch on the card to
restart the card in the Serial Pass-Through mode.
4.
Locate the configuration cable (labeled “PC”) that was supplied
with the ConnectUPS-X Web/SNMP Card.
5.
Plug the RJ-45 end of the configuration cable into the COM port on
the card.
Verify that you have used the port labeled “COM.” The other ports
on the card will not work for configuration.
6.
Plug the other end of the configuration cable into the serial COM
port on the computer.
