COMMUNICATION
You can communicate with the UPS via either SNMP, USB or RS232. Simultaneous communication via more than one
interface is not possible. The priority is SNMP > USB > RS232. The hardware will detect the connection port to select the
communication interface.
2.5.1
USB AND RS232 COMMUNICATION PORTS
The USB and RS232 ports are plug-in interface ports that enable advanced communication between the UPS and the
computer (UPS software required). The interface ports are operative as soon as the mains power cord is plugged into a
live wall outlet, even if the UPS is switched off.
For more information please refer to the user manual that comes with the interface software. We strongly recommend to
use only original GE software products in combination with the interface ports.

network. For more information please refer to the user manual that comes with the interface card.
