Each interface kit includes a special interface cable which is required to convert status
signals from the UPS into signals that the individual operating system can recognize. The
interface cable must be connected to the USB or RS232 port (depending on model) on the
UPS. The other side of the interface cable can be connected to the USB or RS232 port
(depending on model) of your PC. For other installation instructions and features, please
