Installation in a UPS

How to install the card for different UPS models

To view the full list of compatible UPS in which an NMC 2 can be installed, see Knowledge Base article FA237786 on the APC website (www.apc.com/support).

Only the AP9635 NMC 2 can be installed in a Symmetra PX 250 or Symmetra PX 500 UPS.

In a Symmetra UPS that uses more than one management product, you must install the management products in the correct order for them to operate properly.

See “How to Install Multiple Management Cards” on page 22.

Step 1: Install the Network Management Card

You do not need to turn off power to install the NMC 2 in a supported Smart-UPS, Galaxy or Symmetra UPS. If you want to turn off your UPS before installing the Network Management Card, see Knowledge Base article FA156132 on the APC website (www.apc.com/support).

The NMC 2 is sensitive to static electricity. When handling the NMC 2, touch only the end plate while using one or more of these electrostaticdischarge devices (ESDs): wrist straps, heel straps, toe straps, or conductive shoes.

For the location of the UPS card slot, see the UPS documentation.

1. Locate the UPS card slot.

2. Use the same screws that hold the slot cover in place to secure the NMC 2 in the UPS card slot.

3. Connect a network interface cable to the 10/100Base-T network connector on the NMC 2.

Installation Manual

When the network interface cable is connected, the NMC will attempt to obtain an IP address via DHCP. See “TCP/IP configuration methods” on page 9.

Step 2: Configure the Network Management Card

See “Quick Configuration” on page 9.
