ERIODIC PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
The
Centric
should be inspected on a regular basis by a trained and qualified technician to verify that the
Centric UPS and batteries are in proper electrical and physical condition.
A procedure for periodic preventive maintenance can be found in the
Centric Installation Guide
. It is
recommended that this inspection procedure be performed every three to six months, or in any case at
least once annually.

and screens used on the

Preliminaries to use of the Web interface
To enable the
Centric
Web interface:
1
Consult with your Network Administrator to obtain an IP address for your
Centric
, and the
appropriate mask and gateway address.
2
Configure the
Centric
with the IP address. See the
Centric
Installation Guide for instructions to
configure the IP address.
3
Connect the
Centric
to the local Ethernet network using the Ethernet (RJ45) port on the rear panel of
the
Centric
controller. This is the port labeled “SNMP” on the controller rear panel.
4
On a computer terminal that has connectivity to the
Centric
IP address, open a Web browser and
enter the
Centric
IP address in the URL bar. For example: “//192.102.2.130” (without quotation
marks), and press Enter. You should see the
Centric
's main menu. From that point you can continue
as usual as if you were using the Mega's display screen. If your computer screen doesn't have touch
capability, use your mouse to make selections.
