Multi-Server UPS Card

Without a Multi-Server UPS Card, the UPS can communicate with two host computers. The
Multi-Server UPS Card enables one UPS to communicate with up to four host computers by
using all three ports on the option card and the open port on the UPS.

NOTE: Port 1 connects the card to the UPS through the pigtail cable on the card.

Overview

Figure 1-4: Multi-Server UPS Card

Power management software enables a single UPS with one Multi-Server UPS Card to
protect up to four servers. If two Multi-Server UPS Cards are installed, five servers can be
separately protected by connecting the servers to different UPS R6000 load segments.

If a network includes five servers running three different operating systems, two Multi-Server
Cards communicate directly between the UPS and all five servers. Each server and its
associated devices can be powered from a different UPS load segment.

HP Uninterruptible Power System R6000 Models User Guide 1-7

Overview

Scalable UPS Card

The Scalable UPS Card enables up to three UPSs to be recognized as a single virtual UPS to
the host computer. Power management software allows the capability to scale up the level of
power protection available to the system.

For example, connecting three UPS R6000 units to one Scalable UPS Card creates a virtual
18 kVA UPS. The virtual UPS would have nine independently controlled load segments.

Figure 1-5: Scalable UPS Card

1-8 HP Uninterruptible Power System R6000 Models User Guide

SNMP-EN Adapter

The SNMP-EN Adapter is a user interface to the UPS in a network where SNMP-based
network management software, such as OnliNet, is installed. Using the SNMP-EN Adapter
communication interface, system administrators can virtually eliminate costly downtime due
to power outages and surges. Spontaneous rebooting, lost files, corrupted data, and other
issues resulting from inconsistent power are decreased. The SNMP-EN Adapter provides the
means to quickly ascertain if a power-related problem exists anywhere on the network.

The SNMP-EN Adapter allows network monitoring without the need to run power
management software on a server. Other network components, such as hubs and routers, can
be monitored when power management software is not in use.

The SNMP-EN Adapter Kit includes OnliNet software and documentation, as well as
information on installing and configuring the SNMP-EN Adapter using MIB and Power MIB.

Overview

Figure 1-6: SNMP-EN Adapter

HP Uninterruptible Power System R6000 Models User Guide 1-9

Overview

Extended Runtime Modules

The UPS R6000 rear panel provides a power receptacle to which ERMs can attach. Each
ERM contains battery packs in a 3U chassis.

At the recommended 80 percent load, one ERM extends the available UPS runtime by up to
18 minutes. Two ERMs can be serially connected to each UPS, increasing the total available
runtime by up to 30 minutes.

Figure 1-7: Back panel with installed ERM

Power Distribution Units

Extend the capabilities of the UPS R6000 by attaching a PDU to the high current receptacle
associated with load segments 1, 2, or 3. One PDU provides 12 additional receptacles to load
segments to which it is attached.

The High to Low Voltage Transformer (250 VA) can be connected to the UPS R6000 to
supply two low-voltage outlets at 250 VA.

To connect devices to the PDU, use IEC-320 jumper cords (Part No. 295633-B21). Two are
provided with the PDU kit.

1-10 HP Uninterruptible Power System R6000 Models User Guide

Remote Emergency Power Off Port

The UPS includes an isolated REPO port. When properly wired, the REPO feature allows the
power at the UPS output receptacles to be switched off from a remote location. To use this
feature, the REPO port must be connected to a remote, normally open switch (not supplied).
When this switch is closed, the UPS immediately disconnects power to its loads. The REPO
switch is used in conjunction with a main disconnect device that removes the AC source from
the input of the UPS. To power down the entire network in the event of an emergency, the
REPO ports of multiple UPS units can be connected to a single switch.

IMPORTANT:

• The REPO port meets the requirements of NFPA Articles 645-10 and 645-11 for a Disconnecting

Means.

• If the remote switch is closed, the REPO feature immediately powers down protected devices and

does not utilize the orderly shutdown procedure initiated by power management software.

• The REPO feature shuts down UPS units operating under either utility or battery power.

• If the UPS was operating on battery power when the remote switch was closed, no power will be

available to the devices until utility power is restored and the UPS has been manually powered up.

Overview

Warranties

To back up the wide range of features offered with the UPS, a three-year limited warranty is
provided.

$25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee

In addition to the limited warranty, a $25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee (provided

Battery Maintenance

Pre-Failure Battery Warranty

The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty, standard on all UPS units, extends the advantage of a
three-year limited warranty by applying it to the battery before it actually fails. Specifically,
the Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that when customers receive notification from
power management software that the battery may fail, the battery is replaced free of charge
under the warranty.

The highest standards in the industry are maintained, as evidenced by the Pre-Failure Battery
Warranty. This warranty is beneficial in at least two significant ways:

• Reduced total cost of ownership

• Reduced downtime

A Pre-Failure Battery warning is given 30 days prior to a battery failure. The warning is
indicated in one or both of the following ways:

• An LED showing that the battery is low

• Notification from power management software

This warning provides ample time to order a spare battery. To order a spare, go to

www.hp.com.

The battery warranty coverage is three years for parts. The warranty for the first year of
ownership includes parts and labor. If battery spares are not available for a particular UPS
model, then the entire UPS, including its battery, is replaced.

Regulatory Compliance Notices

Regulatory Compliance Serial Numbers

For the purpose of regulatory compliance certifications and identification, your product has
been assigned a unique series number. The series number can be found on the product
nameplate label, along with all required approval markings and information. When requesting
compliance information for this product, always refer to this series number. The series
number is not the marketing name or model number of the product.

Federal Communications Commission Notice

Part 15 of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and Regulations has
established Radio Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference-free radio
frequency spectrum. Many electronic devices, including computers, generate RF energy
incidental to their intended function and are, therefore, covered by these rules. These rules
place computers and related peripheral devices into two classes, A and B, depending upon
their intended installation. Class A devices are those that may reasonably be expected to be
installed in a business or commercial environment. Class B devices are those that may
reasonably be expected to be installed in a residential environment (for example, personal
computers). The FCC requires devices in both classes to bear a label indicating the
interference potential of the device as well as additional operating instructions for the user.

A

The FCC rating label on the device shows the classification (A or B) of the equipment.
Class B devices have an FCC logo or FCC ID on the label. Class A devices do not have an
FCC logo or FCC ID on the label. After the Class of the device is determined, refer to the
corresponding statement in the following sections.

Class A Equipment

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at
personal expense.

Class B Equipment

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit that is different from that to which the

receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.

Preventing Electrostatic Damage

A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards
or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the
device.

To prevent electrostatic damage when setting up the system or handling parts:

• Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.

• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free

workstations.

• Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.

• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.

B

Electrostatic Discharge

• Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.

Grounding Methods To Prevent Electrostatic Damage

There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the following methods when
handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:

• Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer
chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm ± 10 percent
resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against the
skin.

• Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on
both feet when standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.

• Use conductive field service tools.

• Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.

If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, have an authorized
reseller install the part.

For more information on static electricity, or assistance with product installation, contact your
authorized reseller.
