ENGLISH introduction
In critical situations, count on MGE UPS SYSTEMS Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). Their protection keeps your data intact and accessible. Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 UPSs ensure top quality power around the clock, and continue operations during power failures. An intelligent microprocessor detects any operating anomalies of the UPS and triggers an alarm if corrective action is necessary. In addition to the high-technology aspect of these UPSs, you can count on backup from our staff, a team of specialists, around the corner from you, throughout the world. It’s no accident that MGE UPS SYSTEMS is the world leader in UPS protection.
application of Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15:
Network servers and interconnection devices are very sensitive to electrical disturbances of all types, including outages, voltage sags, brownouts, spikes, etc. The origins of the disturbances also vary, ranging from atmospheric phenomena, to nearby devices generating interference such as elevators, photocopy machines and machine tools, not to mention human errors, like the accidental pulling out of power cords or tripping of circuit breakers. The consequences of these disturbances on computer systems range from data losses to hardware damage (power supplies, hard disks). Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 are specially designed to protect network servers and all
other interconnection devices that are sensitive to electrical disturbances. Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 add fault­tolerance to the utility supplying your sensitive equipment. Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 are designed as compact units and feature very silent operation. They can be installed under a desk, and can also be installed in a rack (see "options"). Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 provide a stable supply of clean power, long back-up time during a utility outage (see table) and vast information and control possibilities according to the configuration selected. Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 On-Line technology provides maximum protection and availability of your workstations, server, and network communication devices. Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 offer many functions and characteristics designed to simplify power management: c automatic battery test carried out periodically. In the event of a fault, a LED provides advance warning for battery replacement; c front panel LEDs signal all types of faults and alarms; c Bar graph continuously indicates the battery charge level or the critical load power level; c Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 are environment friendly: all components are recyclable and an electronic power-saver device reduces power consumption if the UPS is not active for a period exceeding 5 minutes while on battery back-up; c EX Driver software provides rapid startup
of Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 using the EX Tuner configuration module. This module adapts Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 to user preferences (battery test frequency, startup and shutdown sequences, setting of battery thresholds, etc.). Operation and monitoring are ensured by the UPS Manager 3.1 module operating under Windows 3.1. EX Driver connects to the RS 232 port on the Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 (see "communication" section for further details); c Solution-PacTM is a CD-ROM which contains all the tools needed to supervise your UPS.

options
c rack installation kit: this kit is used to install Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15 in a 19­inch rack. The kit is designed to receive two
Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15, or one Pulsar EX10/EX15 and a battery extension unit,
thus offering up to 3000 VA of power;
c UM Sensor environment measurement unit: compatible with SNMP and UPS
Manager 2 Unix and OS/2, or Solution PacTM, this unit measures the temperature and the relative humidity in the room where the Pulsar is installed. Eight relay contacts are provided to transmit signals to an administration platform, in the form of voltage free contacts to enable monitoring of (fire alarm, climate control fault, intrusion, etc.);
c battery extension module: Pulsar EXB10/EXB15 battery extension modules lengthen the battery time of the Pulsar EX10/EX15 to meet your requirements.

v
software supplied with Pulsar EX7, EX10 and EX15
To meet the different operating environments of your UPS, Pulsar EX includes 2 MGE UPS SYSTEMS software programs: c EX-Driver software for Windows (on 3.5" diskettes);
c Solution-PacTM network software (on CD-
ROM).
EX-Driver for Windows
EX Driver for Windows provides communication with the UPS from a simple Windows workstation. EX-Driver is compatible with Windows 3.1x and Windows 95, for communication with the UPS via a serial connection for various needs:
c personalization of the UPS operating mode: the EX-Tuner utility, can be used to
change certain UPS operating parameters if the standard factory settings are not ideal for the operating conditions. It is possible to modify the output voltage, battery-test frequency, startup and shutdown sequences, operation of automatic by-pass, etc.;
c UPS monitoring from a Windows workstation and system safety:
EX-Driver, UPS Manager 3 software, can display the UPS status, warn the user if a problem arises, and provide automatic shutdown. The many possibilities available include: v supervision of operating parameters through a graphic interface (display of battery charge level, remaining battery time and UPS load level). These values can be recorded periodically in a log file, v messages to the user in case of power
outage or UPS problem and recording of events in a log file, v during long-term power outages, automatic shutdown of the system and of the UPS, followed by automatic restart of the UPS (system reboot) on return of utility power, v PowerShareTM functions.
Solution-PacTM for networks and multi-station systems
Novell Netware, Windows NT, OS/2 Lan Server, SCO Unix, etc.) Protection by UPS is only complete and effective if combined with powerful software functions which warn users and the operator of any power supply problem, automate system shutdown, supervise and remotely control the UPSs. MGE UPS SYSTEMS created Solution-PacTM for this purpose. Solution-PacTM combines all these functions in a single CD-ROM, usable in local or remote mode (SNMP), and covering the main network environments. Solution-PacTM is the ideal solution for protecting networks and multistation systems. Solution-PacTM on a single CD-ROM contains everything needed to safeguard one or more systems and to supervise one or more UPSs from a local or remote station. Solution-PacTM includes SNMP UM-Agent, UM-Client system shutdown software, and UM-Console supervision software. Solution-PacTM is a powerful and upgradable software tool which provides all the supervision, control and safety functions
associated with a UPS:
v graphic display of the UPS, v remote control of the UPS and output
receptacles,
v user alarm of problems, v recording of events in log files, v automatic system shutdown and restart, v local or remote supervision of UPSs and
ancillary devices, v transmission of UPS information and alarms to any SNMP supervisor.
