SNMP-NV6
1. Overview
SNMP-NV6 card is an interface between the UPS and the network. It can obtain the information from a UPS and issue commands to it. SNMP-NV6 card supports two kinds of protocols – SNMP and HTTP for user access. Through the SNMP NMS and Web Browser, the user can setup the SNMP-NV6 card obtain information from the UPS and issue commands to UPS.
SNMP-NV6 card also provides shutdown software that operates with various Operating Systems that can link to the SNMP-NV6 card automatically through the network and communicate with it via SNMP protocol. The shutdown software retrieves the UPS information from SNMP-NV6 card and based on this information can start the shutdown process in order to prevent the abnormal shutdown of the host or server due to power events.
1.1 Features

3. Installation
Note: The SNMP-NV6 cards are designed to be Hot Swappable, but there is a remote
chance that when Hot-Swapping the SNMP-NV6 card that the UPS will shutdown. Minuteman recommends following steps 1 through 13 when installing the SNMP-NV6 card, but to hot-swap skip to step number 3 and omit steps 6, 7.
1. Turn off all of the equipment that is plugged into the UPS.
2. Turn off the UPS and unplug the UPS’s power cord from the AC wall outlet.
3. Remove the Option Slot cover plate from the rear panel of the UPS.
4. Insert the SNMP-NV6 card into the option slot and secure with the retaining screws.
5. Connect the Network cable to the Network Port on the SNMP-NV6 card.
6. Plug the UPS’s power cord into the AC wall outlet and turn the UPS on.
7. Turn on all the equipment that is plugged into the UPS.
8. Open a web browser and type in the default host name SNMP-NV6 or the default IP address 192.168.1.100 in the address box.
9. Login as administrator with admin for the default Account and password for the default Password.
10. Open the TCP/IP page and configure the IP address, Subnet Mask, Gateway IP and the host name for the SNMP-NV6 card.
11. Open the User Manager page to change your accounts and passwords.
12. We recommended disabling the BOOTP/DHCP option and assigning a valid static IP address.
13. Open the Time Server page to set the time and the date.
Note: The BOOTP/DHCP default setting is Enabled.

4. Configuration Methods
The easiest way to configure the SNMP-NV6 card is to run the EzSetting program, which you can find on the provided CD. Once you have configured the essential network parameters successfully, you can launch a Web Browser or telnet to the SNMP-NV6 card to execute more detailed configuration.
4.1 Configure the SNMP-NV6 card by EzSetting
1. Prepare a workstation (Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, 2008, XP, Vista, Win7 or
later).
2. Make sure both of the dipswitches of the SNMP-NV6 card are set to the OFF position (normal mode) to enable the network transmission.
3. Make sure the workstation and the SNMP-NV6 card are in the same LAN.
4. Connect the Network cable to the Network Port on the SNMP-NV6 card.
5. Put the CD in and open the EzSetting program.
Note: The Windows Firewall may need to be turned off while using the EzSetting
program.
6. Press the Discover button to search for all of the SNMP-NV6 cards in the LAN. All of the SNMP-NV6 cards will be listed in the Device List as shown below.
7. If you want to search all of the SNMP-NV6 cards in a different domain network, just change the Subnet and Subnet Mask and then press the Discover button to list them.
8. If the SNMP-NV6 card cannot be found, check the networking port UDP 3456 in the OS. Open it if it is blocked.
9. Select the SNMP-NV6 card in the Device List and then click on the Modify button. Enter the account and password. The default account and password are admin and password respectively.
10. Click on the Configuration button and then configure the essential network parameters.
SNMP-NV6
4.2 Configure the SNMP-NV6 card through COM Port
1. Prepare a workstation (Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003, 2008, XP, Vista, Win7 or
later).
2. Use the RJ45 to DB9 serial cable (provided) to connect the SNMP-NV6 card’s COM port with the workstation’s COM port.
3. Set both of the dipswitches of the SNMP-NV6 card to OFF position (normal mode) to enable the network transmission.
4. From the workstation running Windows 2000, 2003, 2008, or XP, open HyperTerminal in the Accessories Program Group. From the workstation running
Windows Vista or 7, download the Putty software from the Internet to execute the configuration.
5. Configure the COM port’s parameters: 2400 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control.

SNMP-NV6
6. Set both of the dipswitches of the SNMP-NV6 card to ON position (configuration mode). After the message appears on the screen, key in the account (default account is admin’) and password (default password is password). Then the SNMP-NV6 card’s Main Menu will appear on the screen. Refer to section 4.4
Configure the SNMP-NV6 card via Text Mode for more information.
4.3 Configure the SNMP-NV6 card through Telnet
1. Connect the SNMP-NV6 card to the network.
2. Prepare a workstation (Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X or Linux) that is in the same
LAN.
3. Set both of the dipswitches of the SNMP-NV6 card to the OFF position (normal mode).
4. From the Windows workstation open a DOS Prompt, type in the telnet HostName or the IP address. For other operating systems, please run the OS shell and type
the same command.
5. After the message appears on the screen, enter the account (default account is admin) and the password (the default password is password) and then the SNMP card’s Main Menu will appear on the screen. Please refer to 4.4 Configure the SNMP-NV6 card via Text Mode for more information.
Note: The SNMP-NV6 card will terminate the telnet connection if there is no activity
within 1 minute.
4.4 Configure the SNMP-NV6 card via Text Mode
You can configure the SNMP-NV6 card via text mode by using a Telnet utility or through the COM port.
