When the communication cable is installed, power management
software can exchange data with the UPS. The software polls the UPS
for detailed information on the status of the power environment. If a
power emergency occurs, the software initiates the saving of all data
and an orderly shutdown of the equipment.
The cable pins for the RS-232 communication port are identified in
Figure 19, and the pin functions are described in Table 4.
