Installing the UPS Network Module 
 
  NOTE: It is not necessary to power down the UPS before 
installing the UPS Network Module. 
 
1.  Remove the two screws securing the UPS option slot cover plate 
and slide the plate out. 
2.  Install the UPS Network Module along the alignment channels 
in the option slot. 
 
3.  If the UPS is powered up, you can be sure that the UPS 
Network Module is seated properly and communicating with 
the UPS by verifying that the UPS Data LED illuminates solid 
green, and then flashes regularly after 2 minutes. 
 
4.  Secure the UPS Network Module using the two screws you 
removed in step 1.
