Mode

The operational mode of the port. Each communications port operates in one of

the following modes:

Terminal mode

System events are logged immediately as they occur.

Calibration

Used only by service personnel.

System Config. Allows you to set building alarms, battery tests, etc.

(Check with your Sales or Service Representative for availability.)

Computer

Provides a proprietary Binary Computer Mode (BCM) Interface.

Remote Monitor Sends all system event information to an RMP, RIM, or

Supervisory Contact Module (SCM). Available for Port 1 only.

Port 1 and Port 2 cannot be in the same mode simultaneously; they must always be

operating in different modes. The modes are described later in this chapter.

Rate

The baud rate of the equipment connected to this port. The baud rate determines

the speed of data transferred between the UPS and the connected equipment. For

Remote Monitor mode, the baud rate must be set to 300. All other modes should

operate at the highest baud rate available with the connected equipment. 300

baud is not recommended for any mode except Remote Monitor.

You can select a baud rate of 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, or 19,200.
