Card Wizard
To use the APC Management Card Wizard to configure a
Management Card from a computer that uses Windows 95,
Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, or Windows 2000, perform the
following steps.
Note: To use the Wizard to configure multiple Management
Cards, to download firmware, or to configure a
Management Card from a configuration file, see the
Management Card Addendum (.\doc\addendum.pdf).
1. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the Wizard
from the APC Web/SNMP Management Card utility CD.
2. Launch the Wizard, when prompted, or, if prompted to
restart the computer, access the Wizard from the Start
menu once the computer restarts.
3. Wait for the Wizard to discover the unconfigured Man-
agement Card, then follow the on-screen instructions to
define the TCP/IP settings.
Note: If you leave the Start a Web browser when
finished option enabled, you can use apc for both
the User Name and Password to access the
Management Card through your browser.
Local (serial)
access You can use a computer that connects to the Management Card
through the serial port at the UPS or chassis to access the
Control Console.
1. Select a serial port at the computer to be used for a termi-
nal-emulation connection with the Management Card.
2. Disable any service that currently uses that serial port,
such as PowerChute plus or UNIX Respond.
3. Connect the smart-signaling cable (940-0024) that came
with the Management Card to a serial port on the com-
puter and to the serial port on the UPS or chassis.
Note: If the computer uses smart-signaling PowerChute
plus, you do not need to perform step 3: A smart-
signaling cable (940-0024 or 940-1524) is already
installed. For simple-signaling, temporarily replace
the PowerChute plus cable.
