Remote Monitoring Service Settings screen

The APC Remote Monitoring Service (RMS) is an APC professional service which securely
monitors customer’s power systems and surrounding environment from a remote 24×7 operation
center, responding to events according to a pre-defined customer escalation procedure. Visit
rms.apc.com to learn more about this service.

• Enable APC RMS: Select this checkbox to start using the service. Once selected, information

about your UPS will periodically be sent to APC’s Remote Monitoring Service.

The APC Remote Monitoring Service uses HTTP protocol to post information to its database. If a
proxy server is used as Internet connection method, then the required proxy server port settings must
be specified (a proxy server acts as an agent between a workstation user or other networked device
and the Internet so that the security, administrative control and caching service can be regulated).

• Use Proxy: Select this checkbox if the Internet connection method uses a HTTP proxy server to

connect to the Internet.

• Proxy server address: Enter the fully qualified IP address or fully qualified domain name of the

proxy server. If you do not know the server address or port number, contact your network
administrator.

• Proxy server port: Enter the port number of the proxy server.

• Use authentication: Select this checkbox if the proxy server requires a login. Then specify a

Proxy server login (user name) and a Proxy server password.

Note

Network settings must be configured before the remote monitoring feature can be used.
