Expansion/Triple Chassis Installation
Step 2: Install
the Network
Management
Card
If the UPS uses more than one APC management product, see
Installation of Multiple Management Cards, a copy of which
came with the Management Card. You must install the APC
management products in the correct order for them to operate
properly.
1. If a cable is connected to the serial port at the UPS or
chassis, stop the APC service that uses that serial
connection and disconnect the cable.
2. If you are installing a chassis, connect the chassis to the
UPS serial port.
3. Use the same screws that hold the expansion slot cover in
place to secure the Management Card in the chassis slot.
4. Connect a network interface cable to the Management
Cards 10/100Base-T network connector.
5. If you are using the
AC Adapter (AP9505):
a. Connect the adapter to the chassis.
b. Connect the adapter to an independent
AC input so
that the Management Card can continue to operate if
the
UPS is turned off or fails.
6. If you disconnected a cable in step 1, reconnect that cable
to the serial port at the chassis, and restart the associated
APC service.
7. See Quick Configuration on page 10.
Caution
The Network Management Card is sensitive to
static electricity. When handling the
Management Card, touch only the end plate
while using one or more of these electrostatic-
discharge devices (ESDs): wrist straps, heel
straps, toe straps, or conductive shoes.
