Installation

2.1

Windows

1.

To install UPSMON, use the installation CD and run the program Upsmon-<Version>-windows-intel.msi . For Windows
NT, 2000, Xp and 2003 server you need administrator rights.

2.

When prompted, select the destination folder for the program files.

3.

The Installation program will automatically copy all of the necessary files, create a program group and install the startup
shortcut for the Upsagent.

4.

After successfully installing the software, the Upsetup (or Wizsetup, the wizard of UPSMON) program will start
automatically, when prompted enter the correct PRTK code for the UPS to be monitored, this code is located on a label
which can be found on either the front or the rear of the UPS, and failure to input this code will prevent the operation of
UPSMON.

5.

The configuration of UPSMON is performed using the Upsetup program; this will enable correct communication with the
UPS and complete setup of the software operational parameters. Otherwise it is possible to use the wizard (Wizsetup) that
allow a basic software configuration.

NOTE: To confirm the correct installation on Windows NT, 2000, Xp and 2003 Server, it is possible to view a list of all installed
services in the Control Panel / Services.

NOTE: The destination PC must have Windows Installer in order to run the installation package.

2.2

UNIX

1.

To install UPSMON, insert the UPSMON CDROM and execute the MOUNT command to access the included file. There
are several specific options for this command, these option are dependent on the different versions of UNIX, for example
the configuration for the file authorisation, the filename written in upper or lower case etc.
The following table describes specific options for the specific UNIX operating systems:

UNIX System

Options

Device name

Linux

-o mode=777 -t iso9660

/dev/cdrom

HP UX

-o case

/dev/dsk/c0t(id)d0

SCO Unix

-oro

/dev/cd0

Unixware

-F cdfs -o -o fperm=777

/dev/cdrom/c0b0t(id)l0

Tru64

-f cdfs –o noversion

/dev/rz(id)a

Solaris

-F hsfs –r

/dev/dsk/c0t(id)d0s2

IRIX

-t iso9660

/dev/scsi/sc0d7l0

Where (id) is the SCSI-Id. There are two possible case modes for filenames on the CD-ROM: all filenames are either
upper or lower case. This must be noted when you name the installation program or when you change the subdirectory at
the CD-ROM. The ISO9660 specification supports also version numbers of filename, therefore on some systems you will
find suffixes ";" (semicolon) or "." (dot) with filenames. As you can abbreviate filenames with wildcards "*" you
shouldn’t have any problems with this feature.

ATTENTION: Sometimes it is necessary to change, using the CHMOD command, the execution-rights of the install script or
other scripts. (“chmod 777 setup.scr”, …). Use a case sensitive mount command for your CD ROM if an execution error occurs.
