UPS Network Management Card 2 User’s Guide50
Configuring the Control Policy
For an AP9631 Network Management Card with up to two connected APC Dry Contact I/O Accessories
(AP9810), you can configure its outputs to respond to events, and you can configure the UPS and outputs
to respond to input alarms.
Configuring an output to respond to an event
1. Select the UPS tab, Control Policy in the top menu bar, and by event under Event Actions on
the left navigation menu.
2. Click a category name to view all of the events in the category, or click a sub-category name to
view the events in that sub-category.
3. In the list of events, review the marked columns to see whether the required event is already
configured to change the state of the output relay.
4. To change the current configuration, click the event name, select the output relay that will change
state when this event is detected, and click Apply.
Configuring the UPS or output to respond to an input alarm
1. Select the UPS tab, Control Policy in the top menu bar, and by event under Event Actions on
the left navigation menu.
2. Click I/O Contact, then click the name of the event to configure.
3. The Management Card supports up to four inputs. You must specify the input that will be
associated with this event.
a. In the Port drop-down list, select the Universal Sensor Port number (1 or 2) to which the
Dry Contact I/O Accessory is installed.
b. In the Zone drop-down list, select the zone letter (A or B) of the contact to which the input
is installed.
4. Define the action the UPS will perform when the input changes state, and select the output that
will change state when this event is detected.
5. Click Display to review your changes, then click Apply.
Note: The action you configure occurs once. If you restore the input to its normal state
before the alarm condition clears, the output will not change state unless the alarm condition
clears and then reoccurs.
