2.4.1.2 PowerChute PLUS Structure

The PowerChute PLUS software consists of two main components:

1. The UPS Monitoring Module,or“server,” communicates with the UPS and

the User Interface Module, logs data and events, notifies users of impending

shutdowns, and when necessary, shuts down the operating system.

2. The User Interface Module consists of the PowerChute PLUS Main Screen

and the System, Logging, Configuration, Diagnostics, and Help menu options.

The User Interface Module lets you access real-time data from the local UPS

Monitoring Module or over a network from UPS Monitoring Modules connected

to other servers. Data includes UPS output, line minimum/maximum voltage,

UPS temperature, output frequency, ambient temperature, humidity, and UPS

status. The User Interface Module also displays event text for the two most

recent events and bar graphs that you can configure to display any three of

the following:

– Utility voltage data

– Battery voltage data

– UPS load data

– Run time remaining

– Battery capacity

– Output voltage

– UPS load

2.4.1.3 PowerChute events

Events are occurrences related to your APC UPS and range in severity from

informational (not critical) to severe (critical). If any of the critical events occur

(see the list below), you must ensure that the Cluster Groups are either moved to

the other node, set offline or the administrator is immediately notified and will take

appropriate action. For most events, you can configure PowerChute PLUS to take

any or all of the following seven actions.

• Log the event.

• Send early warning pop-up messages to specified administrators

• Broadcast messages to users on the network

• Shut down the host computer
