UPS pipe through function
The COM port 2 is flexible and provides to connect various devices to fulfill
different functionalities:
- Sensors
- Modbus
- External modems
- UPS Signal piping
In companion to UPS configuration, the Pipe-Through functionality of the
CS141 offers an advantage in UPS signal usage:
The signal received from the UPS can be piped through the CS141 and will be
available 1:1 at COM port 2.
Due to this fact administrators can harmonize emergency shutdown solutions
even if they need to use two different and physically separated networks:
Physically separated network resources can be managed for their own and use
simultaneously the same UPS solution.
The configuration of Pipe Through is done on the Web Manager connected to
the UPS. The second Web Manager is configured as described on COM 1 but
is connected to the COM2 port of the first Web Manager instead of the UPS.
Note:
When using the pipe-through function, be sure to set the correct COM2 port to Pipe Through. Furthermore, set the same UPS with
identical values on both CS141s.
All other settings may differ.
