Control Console Menus
Overview
The control console provides options to monitor and configure a Management Card, its
UPS, and other supported devices. If a device is not present, the control console
displays no options for that device. For example:
• The control console at a Management Card that connects only with an environmental
monitor does not provide UPS options.
• The control console of an AP9617 Network Management Card does not provide
options for an Integrated Environmental Monitor.
How to use control console menus
The menus in the control console list options by number and name. To use an option,
type the option’s number, press
ENTER, and follow any on-screen instructions. If you
use an option that changes a setting or value, select Accept Changes to save your
change before you exit the menu.
While using a menu, you can also do the following:
•Type
? and press ENTER for menu option descriptions if help exists for the menu.
•Press
ENTER to refresh the menu
•Press
ESC to go back to the menu from which you accessed the current menu
•Press
CTRL+C to return to the main (Control Console) menu
•Press
CTRL+D to toggle between the UPS and Environment menus
•Press
CTRL+L to access the event log
Control console structure
For menus not specific to UPSs but shared among APC network-enabled devices,
names and locations of options differ from those of the Web interface. The menu
structure in the control console is retained from earlier firmware versions for
compatibility with scripts and programs that rely on that structure.
