SNMP Trap functionality
The basic task of the adapter is to communicate alarm states of the UPS to an according monitoring station (traps) or to provide UPS
data if monitoring stations poll. With this function, e.g. the power supply and battery status of a UPS are monitored by an SNMP
management station.
Additionally, the CS141 provides functions for simulating and testing trap messages during configuration procedure.
Remote Control:
Due to the fact the CS141 is capable to configure it is possible to trigger different remote-controlled actions. Administrators can perform
battery tests, bypass the UPS batteries or configure UPS behavior
Note:
Depending on the UPS you are using, provided functions may differ.
Compatibility according to third party network management systems
The SNMP adapter is compatible with all common network management systems. All SNMP systems providing the compilation of a MIB
- or already contain the Management Information Base (MIB) / Request for Comment 1628 (RFC) for UPS systems - can be operated
with CS141.
Full RCCMD support:
Due to the fact the CS141 is a full manager and not just an SNMP-Card to collect and provide data, the entire network shutdown
routine can be configured to react as fast as possible:
Thanks to integrated RCCMD support, the CS141 offers a flexible and fast way to operate even the most complex shutdown solutions.
By the usage of standardized network technologies and protocols, the patented RCCMD server transfers control commands that are
executed by the clients in real time.
RS-232 / pipe-through:
In some cases, different networks without any connections have to be configured to use the same UPS.
With the new pipe-through capability administrators can connect two CS141 and let the communication of the UPS work with both
devices:
By doing so, two different CS141 can communicate to according networks without additional hardware.
RS232 UPS interface:
The CS141 provides a standard RS232 interface to allow establishing a serial connection to any UPS providing this standard.
Note:
Please use only the original UPS communication cable supplied with the UPS. In case of using a contact UPS, choose the special
designed cable of the manufacture. If you have any questions regarding special connection cables, refer your UPS dealer.
Provided real-time logfiles:
The CS141 provides a proven compilation of logfiles to reconstruct a complete timeline in case of critical incidents.
This logfile is accessible via UNMS, UPSMAN, WebGUI and FTP or can be send via mail to configured mail-accounts.
Advanced mailing capabilities
Each model of the CS141 family provides the capability to connect to any mail server using standardized encryption technologies.
Unique web server included:
The unique build-in Web server of the CS141 displays all information about the device itself, connected sensor and external hardware.
The software module UPSView inside the CS141 can also be used to display a graphical representation of these data.
To Access the web interface administrators and technicians may just use common browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari etc.).
Networking
Modern UPS solutions are much more than just batteries. The Cs141 takes an eye on this fact and co-operates with the UPS:
