Hardware and Software Compatibility

SmartSlot Measure-UPS II requires an APC device with a SmartSlot as a host. This can be a UPS equipped with a SmartSlot, or a SmartSlot Expansion Chassis in combination with a UPS that supports the Expansion Chassis.

Measure-UPS II also requires some means of reportin can be an

2. Installation

Use the following procedure to install SmartSlot Measure-UPS II:

1. Install and configure any software or hardware that will be used with Measure-UPS II for data reporting (see software and hardware compatibility above).

2. Using figure 2 as a guide, install Measure-UPS II in the host SmartSlot. Use a #2 Phillips head screwdriver to remove the host device SmartSlot cover plate. Install Measure-UPS II. Replace the cover plate screws. Note: Measure-UPS II is sensitive to static electricity. Handle Measure-UPS II by the end plate only. Do not touch the exposed printed circuit board. While it is not possible to install Measure-UPS II upside down, it is possible to damage it in the attempt. Note that the edges of the printed circuit board align with the locating slots in the sides of the SmartSlot. The SmartSlot may be oriented horizontally or vertically in the host device. The host device may be on or off during installation.

3. Connect the supplied probe to probe connector 1 on MeasureUPS II.

4. Place the probe where desired using the supplied hook and loop fasteners, if needed. Note: The Measure-UPS II probe is designed for use in a controlled environment. Place it in an area that is within the environment limits set in the specifications (see section

9.) The location must be free from direct sunlight, excessive moisture, and dust.

Note

: probe connector 2 is not used in Measure-UPS II.

Figure 2, SmartSlot installation

Do not:

• Cover any of the ventilation holes on the probe

• Immerse the probe or place it where dew can be expected to form

• Use the probe in an environment with chlorine gas or insecticides.

5. The contact monitoring connection is a two piece design. Connect contact closure-type sensors to the removable screw terminal block using the information in section 4 as a guide. The connector accepts wire sizes from 14 AWG (1.6 mm2) to 26 AWG (.4 mm2). Strip the wire insulation 0.25" (6 mm). Connect the screw terminal block to the Sensor Zones connector of Measure-UPS II.

See fi

ure 3 below for a completed installation.

3. Operation Check

1. Confirm the basic operation of Measure-UPS II. Use the data reporting system (see hardware and software compatibility in section 1) to confirm that Measure-UPS II is working. W ith the probe (temperature or temperature and humidity) connected to probe connector 1, Measure-UPS II should transmit temperature or temperature and humidity values to the reporting system. Note: Reported humidity values will be less than 2% RH when using the temperature only probe. If the probe is not properly connected both temperature and humidity readings will be very low.

2. Confirm contact sensing by activating each sensor in turn according to the sensor manufacturers recommendation. Use the data reporting system to verify that each sensor operates as planned.
