5 Remote Monitoring
5.1. Description
Remote monitoring and control of the DC power system is accomplished through the use
of the optional APC Network Management card. This card is a separate module mounted
into the top panel of the system controller module.
Complete documentation for the use of the management card accompanies the DC
power system in the form of a small Quick Start Guide and a CD. The CD contains
electronic copies of User’s Manuals along with the necessary software utilities to support
the management function.
5.2. Physical Connections
The management card has a RJ-45 connector to support a TCP/IP protocol over a
10BaseT Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN). The 9-pin D-shell connector uses the
special RS-232 cable (APC part number 940-0024C) to allow local access through a
Terminal Emulation program like HyperTerminal™ or Procomm™.(**)
5.3. Command and Monitoring Protocol
Refer to the User’s Guides and associated documentation provided on the management
card CD for the details on installation and use of the various communication protocols
and command settings.
