1 > Continuous Dump The UPS regularly transmits status
information to the computer. Baud rates of 1200 to 2400 are
recommended to reduce host computer overhead when using
this mode.
2 > Polled Dump Status information is transmitted only when
requested by a poll character (Control-E).
3 > Smart Dump Status information is transmitted when polled, as
in the previous mode. However, the transmission also occurs
automatically whenever UPS status changes. For example, if
there is a power outage, UPS status information changes and is
therefore, automatically transmitted.
