26 • Powering the ULTRIX-FR12 ULTRIX-FR12 Installation Guide (v4.0)
Ultripower Manager
The ULTRIX-FR12 requires multiple Ultripower power supply units (with a minimum of two units). It
is required that these power cycle together. The primary Ultricore BCS has the Ultripower Manager
feature to group up to 4 Ultripower units. When the Ultripower Group output state is changed, via
the Ultripower Manager interface, the grouped units will follow suit.
Refer to the Ultripower User Guide for details on connecting an Ultripower to a power source.
To set up an Ultripower group
1. Connect each Ultripower unit to mains AC and your facility network.
2. Configure Ultripower network IP addresses via DashBoard > Walkabout. Refer to the
Ultripower User Guide for details.
