UPS Control Page The UPS Control page enables triggering of startup and shutdown sequences for the UPS main output and load segments. The status of each output displays by a icon associated with the Off label (red icon) or On label (green icon).
  • Page 38 S Safe power down & reboot: Immediately launches a sequence to switch off and then restore output power. It shuts down the powered systems during the shutdown sequence, and then switches off the output. Finally, it launches the restart sequence at the end of the time delay specified in the Toggle duration parameter.

  • Page 39: Ups Weekly Schedule Programming

    The weekly schedule enables the administrator to optimize power consumption or program a reboot of the protected equipment at a set time. In a shutdown sequence, the Dell UPS Management Software connected to the card is informed, ensuring that each machine is shut down correctly before the UPS output is switched off. You can program up to seven UPS shutdown sequences in one week, with a minimum shutdown delay of 30 minutes.

  • Page 40: Shutdown Parameters

  • Page 41: Ups Shutdown (Inverter)

    UPS Shutdown (Inverter) The first shutdown criterion initiates the restart of the shutdown sequence if the remaining time is under (0 to 99999 seconds, 180 by default). This value is the minimum remaining backup time before the shutdown sequence is launched. S If battery capacity is under (0 to 100%): This value cannot be less than that of the UPS and is the minimum remaining battery capacity level before the shutdown sequence launches.

    The save frequency of these values (60 seconds by default) is defined on the System page (see “System Settings” on page 52). Approximately 435 time-stamps can be stored on the card. When the system exceeds this threshold, the oldest time-stamps are deleted automatically. Save Log enables you to open or save all saved values in comma separated values (CSV) format (compatible with Microsoft Excel type spreadsheets).

  • Page 44: System Log

    The card can save up to 435 events. When this threshold is exceeded, the system deletes the oldest event when a new one occurs. Save Log enables you to save values in CSV format. Clear Log enables you to delete all records. Enter the admin user name and password to validate this action.

  • Page 88: Shutdown Sequence

    Some UPS models are equipped with load segments. Load segments are sets of receptacles that can be controlled through the Dell Network Management Card, providing an orderly shutdown and startup of your equipment. Load segments are dependent on the UPS's Inverter. Shutdown of the Inverter causes shutdown of the load segments (usually two load segments).
