Additional Accessories
Environmental Monitoring Probe (EMP)
Enhance the capabilities of your ConnectUPS or PowerVision Data Acquisition Terminal (DAT) with the
Environmental Monitoring Probe. Use the EMP to monitor ambient temperature, humidity, and two contact
closure devices. Whether you need to ensure an optimal operating environment for your servers or you want
to monitor the status of a smoke detector, motion detector, or to know when someone is opening or closing a
door, the EMP has it covered.
ConnectUPS Web/SNMP Product Family
Monitor a UPS on your network or across the Internet with the ConnectUPS Web/SNMP product family.
ConnectUPS communication devices have built-in power management software and a Web-based interface
that enables you to monitor a UPS securely from any Web browser. Use the Web to configure remote management functions such as UPS output control, scheduled shutdowns, and emergency shutdowns in the event of
power failures. In addition to the Web interface, ConnectUPS devices allow you to monitor and control UPSs
using any Powerware software including PowerVision, LanSafe, NetWatch, and MultiView software. The X-Slot
card can also be used as a four-port network hub for use in applications from small offices to server farms.

Modbus® Card
Integrate your UPS into a Building Management System or Industrial Automation System using the
Powerware Modbus Card. This card communicates accurate, real-time data using the industry standard
Modbus RTU protocol.
Multi-Server Card
Turn your single UPS into multiple, independently controlled, virtual UPSs with the Powerware Multi-Server
Card. This card offers maximum control of your power environment and protects systems from the harmful
effects of power irregularities without the need for purchasing additional UPSs. With independent control
of serial ports providing load shedding capability for maximum runtime of critical loads, you can configure
multiple servers to execute a graceful shutdown at the optimum time desired.
Relay Interface Card
The Relay Interface card is dedicated adapter that provides an essential dry-contact interface between
your Powerware UPS and any relay-connected computer, including the IBM® AS/400®, as well as a variety of
industrial applications. The relay card includes a remote shutdown feature, ensuring that you remain in
control of your power systems. This card is well suited for integrating Powerware UPSs into Private Branch
Exchange (PBX) installations or third-party management systems.
PowerVision Power Management Software
Offering a more comprehensive feature set that our basic LanSafe software, the PowerVision product family
provides simultaneous monitoring of multiple UPS or other equipment such as generators, security systems, and power distribution units (PDUs). With powerful trend analysis and diagnosis tools, more precise
data collection, and robust configuration for integration into network and building management systems,
PowerVision is an enterprise-wide solution. The introduction of PowerVision Network Edition, Facility Edition,
and Enterprise Manager enables you to scale your implementation of PowerVision to suite the needs for your
company whether you have 25 or 25,000 employees.
CoreLogic™ Software Development Toolkit
CoreLogic offers system integrators, software developers, and original equipment manufacturers an easy, reliable, and flexible approach to integrating or embedding UPS management capabilities into software applications. Designed for flexibility and customization, CoreLogic can significantly lower software development costs
and shorten implementation timeframes.
