1. Presentation 1.3 Functions The SNMP 10BT communication card is an agent for UPS supervision using the SNMP protocol. It provides a number of objects (MIB) on the Ethernet 10BT network and makes it possible for a number of different remote machines to supervise the UPS and protect computer data (orderly system shutdown). It may be used in all UPSs equipped with UPS BUS communications slots or in a MultiSlot module. 1.4 Overview Key: 6 ␣ 1 Red Tx LED: - On: card energised. - Flashing: data em
