Location:

The RS-232 interface is standard on all SG series UPS models. The port is 
located on the UPS rear panel, via a DB-9 female connector. 

Supported Protocols

UPSILON 2000 & SEC SmartMon

BAUD RATE ------- 2400bps
DATA LENGTH---- 8 bits
STOP BIT----------- 1 bit
PARITY-------------- None

DB-9 Connector Pin Assignment

When making a connection between a computer and the UPS RS-232 port, 
always use the green cable supplied with the UPS.

There are communications options that WILL DISABLE the RS-232 port and 
render it inoperable. The options are as follows:

a.

Internal SNMP/HTTP agent option installed into the UPS 
communications option slot.

The following options WILL NOT affect the operation of the RS-232 port:

a.

Falcon Opto Coupler based signal interface board installed in the 
communications option slot. 

b.

Any Falcon relay-based, dry contact signal interface board 
installed in the communications option slot.

DB-9 Signals are not isolated and intended for connection to like RS-232 
interfaces. DO NOT APPLY ANY OTHER VOLTAGES TO THESE PINS!
