ConnectUPS M (modem) SNMP Adapter |
||||||||||
|
The difference between the standard ConnectUPS and the M model is
that the M version allows the user to connect an external modem
directly to the unit. While communicating to the network with both
UDP/IP and SNMP protocols, the ConnectUPS-M can now handle also
the modem communications simultaneously.

In the event of a UPS alarm condition, the ConnectUPS-M enables
the attached, external modem to place an outgoing call to up to
six pager numbers, which can be preprogrammed into the unit. If
the pager supports text capability, the ConnectUPS-M is capable
of providing alarm/event text on the pager's LCD display.
When the ConnectUPS-M calls a personal computer, a communications link is established between the ConnectUPS-M and a remote computer running the appropriate communications software. The ConnectUPS-M will continue to retry the call until it successfully connects to the remote computer's modem. The ConnectUPS-M package includes two pieces of software (not necessary for calling a pager/computer directly from the ConnectUPS-M): DialUPS for UPS monitoring and UPSdial for remote alarm routing. DialUPS uses the PC to monitor the status of the remote UPSs. Critical parameters, such as alarms, load, battery time remaining or battery capacity are scrutinized. Active alarms are displayed and recorded into an alarm history file. A real-time map of the UPS input, output and battery is also included within this application.
