DB-9 Communication Port
To establish communication between the UPS and a computer, connect
your computer to the UPS communication port using the supplied
communication cable (see Figure 18).
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 are identified in Figure 19 and the pin functions are
described in Table 3.
