FlexEvents
™
allow administrators
to plan for and control crisis
situations
FlexEvents allow users to customise the APC
Smart-UPS reaction to all power events. For
each possible power event the user has the
option of choosing up to seven items from a list
of possible UPS actions. Actions include: Log
Event, Notify Administrator, Notify Users, Shut
Down Server, Run Command File, Page, Send
E-Mail. Customising UPS actions allows you to
plan for and control crisis situations before they
can cause downtime or threaten data.
Software configurable features
Customise the operation of an APC
Smart-UPS to your environment and needs.
With PowerChute plus software, as well as
the PowerNet SNMP Adapter, you can
adjust eleven operating parameters.
Settings are stored in APC Smart-UPS’s
permanent memory (E-PROM). The
following parameters are adjustable:
UPS ID
Users may assign any 8 character string to
assist in UPS identification. For example, UPS
ID may be server name or UPS location.
Low transfer
Low transfer voltage may be moved
downward to extend brownout range, or
upward to protect sensitive equipment.
High transfer
High transfer voltage may be moved lower to
protect sensitive equipment, or higher to
conserve battery during extended high line
voltage conditions.
Sensitivity
Sensitivity to line noise may be adjusted for
fuel powered AC generator applications.
Self test
APC Smart-UPS automatically performs a
self-test every two weeks. This ensures a
weakening battery will be detected before it’s
too late. Users can opt for weekly
testing, testing at start up only, or no
automatic self test.
Alarm
The audible alarm may be suppressed or
delayed to eliminate nuisance alarms.
Shutdown delay
The delay between when the shutdown signal
is sent from the CPU to UPS and when the
UPS shuts down can be adjusted for special
applications.
Return delay
Allows multiple APC Smart-UPS on the same
power grid or circuit to stagger or sequence
their return from shutdown once the utility
line returns.
