87. ual What is UPSMON The UPSMON software package is a client server application for networks and local workstations used for monitoring UPS systems The server module of the UPSMON Software is the Upsagent this communicates via an RS 232 or TCP IP network cable with the UPS When the Upsagent is operating it collects as a background program the messages sent from the UPS The Upsagent interprets the received messages and makes them available to the client module which is known as Upsview The communication of the data between the Upsagent and the Upsview can be done either via TCP IP or shared memory on a local computer If the Upsagent detects mains supply voltage variations or even a total power loss it can execute various command scripts which for example may either perform a shutdown of the server or send warnings to the connected users These scripts which are a part of the UPSMON package can be adapted to suit your specific requirements When a change in the UPS alarm status is detected there is a corresponding file i e shell script command file that will be executed either when the alarm is activated or deactivated If an alarm condition remains for a long duration the user can customise the system to shutdown The user may also prompt the UPS to shutdown to save autonomy time which allows the system adequate time to enable further shutdowns in the unfortunate event of a repetitive alarm condition The configuration of the UPSMON pac
