1.1 System Requirements
2.1 Default UPS System Shutdown Settings
SNMPWEBCARD is an optional network card that you can install in the accessory slot of a compatible UPS systems or PDU*. SNMPWEBCARD
connects your UPS system or PDU to your Ethernet network as a manageable device that supports remote monitoring, remote control and remote
condition reporting. You can manage the device from PowerAlert Network Management System, an SNMP Network Management Station, a Web
browser or telnet, allowing you to reboot, control outlets, shed nonessential loads, monitor load levels and more. The SNMPWEBCARD can also send
SNMP traps or e-mail messages to the addresses you specify, alerting you automatically to events such as power failures.
* SNMPWEBCARD is preinstalled in Tripp Lite Monitored and Switched PDUs, which can be identied by the presence of “MN” or “NET” in the model name.
For instructions on hardware installation and basic conguration, refer to the printed manual that came with your SNMPWEBCARD or PDU. The
manual can also be found on the bundled CD-ROM or downloaded from www.tripplite.com/support/manuals/.
During a power failure, SNMPWEBCARD is pre-congured to shut
down the UPS system two minutes after receiving a low battery signal.
This allows the UPS system to provide the maximum available runtime
to connected equipment. If you want to change the default setting,
