The UPS supports simple network monitoring protocol (SNMP) communication, Modbus protocol communication and dry contact communication. This chapter provides information relevant to these types of communication.
If you need to monitor the UPS through network, you may select the SIC card provided by Emerson Network Power
Co., Ltd. This card supports SNMP protocol.
The SIC card is a network management card. It can make the UPS made by Emerson Network Power Co., Ltd real network equipment. It can also be connected to the IRM series sensor to provide environment monitoring function.
When the intelligent equipment generates an alarm, the SIC card can notify the user by recording the log, sending trap information, and sending a mail.
The SIC card provides three approaches for you to monitor your intelligent equipment and equipment room environment:
 Web browser. You can use Web browser to monitor your intelligent equipment and equipment room environment through the Web server function provided by the SIC card

Network management system (NMS). You can use NMS to monitor your intelligent equipment and equipment room environment through the SNMP function provided by the SIC card
 SiteMonitor, a network management software for equipment room power and environment. You can use
SiteMonitor to monitor your intelligent equipment and equipment room environment through the TCP/IP interface provided by the SIC card
The SIC card can also work with the Network Shutdown computer safe shutdown program developed by Emerson
Network Power Co., Ltd. to provide automatic safe shutdown function for your computer installed with Network
Shutdown, so as to prevent data loss.
For the installation and setting information of the SIC card, refer to the Site Interface Web/SNMP Agent Card User
Manual .
The UPS achieves the Modbus protocol communication through Modbus card (option). The Modbus card should be installed to the Intellislot port located at the front panel of control module on top of the bypass cabinet. For details, see
UPS JBUS/MODBUS Adapter Card User Manual .
The UPS provides the following two dry contact communication approaches:

Dry contact board (option)

Dry contact port
The UPS provides dry contact card (option), to facilitate user monitor the UPS through dry contact signal. The dry contact card should be installed to the Intellislot port located at the front panel of control module on top of the bypass cabinet. For details, see UPS Dry Contact Card User Manual .

For on-site specific needs, the UPS may need auxiliary connection to achieve functions like acquiring external equipment status information, providing alarm signals to external devices, and remote EPO. These functions are realized through the following interfaces on the external interface board (EIB).

Input dry contact port

Output dry contact port

BCB port
 EPO input port
