Pin 2

RS232 Transmit Data: Sends outgoing RS232 communication data.

Pin 3

Normally Open On-Battery Contact: A normally open contact that closes 15 seconds
(pulls to Common) after the UPS switches to battery power.

Pin 4

Common: The signal ground for all signal pins.

Pin 5

Normally Open Low-Battery-Alarm Contact: A normally open contact that closes
