Riello UPS NetMan 204 - Manual (Page 10)

Modbus TCP/IP
The UPS status can be monitored by means of the standard network protocol MODBUS TCP/IP.
Modbus TCP/IP is simply the Modbus RTU protocol with a TCP interface that runs on Ethernet.
BACnet/IP
The UPS status can be monitored by means of the standard network protocol BACnet/IP.
BACnet (Building Automation and Control networks) is a data communication protocol mainly used
in the building automation and HVAC industry (Heating Ventilation and Air-Conditioning).
FTP
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a network protocol used for file exchange. NetMan 204 uses this
protocol for:
1. download of files of the UPS values and events history log archive (Datalog and Eventlog);
2. download and upload of configuration files;
3. firmware upgrade.
In both cases a client FTP is required, configured with these parameters:
• Host: hostname or NetMan 204 IP address;
• User: see chapter “Users”;
• Password: current password.
The connection can also be established using a web browser (all the most popular web browsers
are supported), by inserting the hostname or IP address of the NetMan 204.
Email
NetMan 204 can send a notification e-mail if one or more alarm conditions occur. The e-mails can
be sent to up to three recipients and they can be sent for seven different kinds of alarm.
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the protocol used to send the e-mails. They are sent to an
SMTP server on port 25. For more details, see paragraph “Configuration”
Reports
NetMan 204 can send periodic e-mails with an attachment containing the files of the UPS values
and events history log archive.
This service can be used to periodically save the history log archives.
The “Email” service must be enabled in order to send reports; the reports are sent to all the
addresses configured for this service (for more details see paragraph “Configuration”).
