To operate the power supply unit as a UPS, the UPS driver software with the corresponding drivers must be
installed on the Industrial PC. The software and drivers are already installed on delivery of the PC with
operating system. Otherwise, you will have to install them yourself.
You can obtain the software and drivers either online for download via the following link: https://
download.beckhoff.com/download/software/Industrial_PC/OS_Support/Driver_DVD or you can contact
Beckhoff Service (service@beckhoff.com), which will provide you with the software and drivers. The driver
software comes with a detailed help function. Call up the help files either directly from the configuration tab
by clicking the Help button or start the file under Start > Programs > Beckhoff > UPS software components.
The method of communication between your PC and the UPS depends on the PC generation. The following
table provides information about the method of communication according to the device generation:
Table13: UPS communication
Device generation UPS communication method
C6920-0050 Serial communication
C6920-0060 Communication via BIOS API
C6920-0070 Communication via BIOS API
In the case of serial communication, all you need is the UPS driver. If the communication takes place via the
BIOS API, you also need the Beckhoff Automation Device Driver in addition to the UPS driver.
