How to Avoid Equipment Damage
Disconnect UPS power
Disconnect chassis power
You do not need to turn off a Symmetra® or a Silcon® model UPS to install the Management Card.
Damage to the UPS or APC Network Management Card (AP9617 or AP9618) can result if you do not remove all AC and DC power from a Smart-UPS®
Caution or Matrix-UPS®, an Expansion Chassis, or a Triple Expansion Chassis before you install the Management Card.
Smart-UPS
1. Turn off the equipment that connects to the UPS.
2. Disconnect the UPS from its AC input source.
3. Press the OFF button on the
UPS for Test approximately 
five seconds to
turn off the DC (battery) power.
Matrix-UPS
1. Turn off the
equipment that connects to the UPS.
2. Turn off the circuit breaker on the rear panel of the UPS.
Make sure that any Expansion Chassis or Triple Expansion Chassis is disconnected from all power: disconnect the chassis cable from the UPS and, if the AC-to-DC Adapter (AP9505) option is used, disconnect the adapter from the chassis.

How to Recover from a Lost Password
You can use a local computer that connects to the Management Card or other device through the serial port to access the control console.
1.Select a serial port at the local computer, and disable any service that uses that port.
2.Connect the serial cable (940-0103) to the selected port on the computer and to the configuration port at the battery manager.
3.Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal®) and configure the selected port as follows:
–9600 bps
–8 data bits
–no parity
–1 stop bit
–no flow control.
4.Press ENTER, repeatedly if necessary, to display the User Name prompt. If you are unable to display the User Name prompt, verify the following:
–The serial port is not in use by another application.
–The terminal settings are correct as specified in step 3.
–The correct cable is being used as specified in step 2.
5.Press the Reset button. The Status LED will flash alternately orange and green. Press the Reset button a second time immediately while the LED is flashing to reset the user name and password to their defaults temporarily.
6.Press ENTER as many times as necessary to redisplay the User Name prompt, then use the default, apc, for the user name and password. (If you take longer than 30 seconds to log on after the User Name prompt is redisplayed, you must repeat step 5 and log on again.)
7.From the Control Console menu, select System, then
User Manager.
8.Select Administrator, and change the User Name and Password settings, both of which are now defined as apc.
9.Press CTRL-C, log off, reconnect any serial cable you disconnected, and restart any service you disabled.
