USER’S GUIDE

Battery Management System

File Transfer (control console only). The File Transfer option of the

Tools menu provides two methods for file transfer over the network and

one for file transfer through a serial connection to the Battery Management

System.

Preferences (Web interface)

Use this option to select either Fahrenheit or Celsius for the Battery

Management System’s temperature display.

Option Description

XMODEM Allows you to transfer either an .ini file or a firmware upgrade file to a

Battery Management System master controller using a terminal-emulation

program only when you use a local connection to the control console. To

connect to the control console locally, see Local access to the control

console.

FTP

Client

Use one of these two options to transfer either an .ini file or a firmware

upgrade file from an FTP or TFTP server of your organization (company,

agency, or department) to the current Battery Management System. These

options assume that your organization has a centralized system for

configuring or upgrading APC Management Cards (such as the one

contained in the Battery Management System’s master unit).

For FTP Client, you are prompted for a user name and password. For

either option, you are then prompted for the server address and the file to

transfer. After you supply that required information, the Battery

Management System transfers the file.

TFTP

Client

See How to Export Configuration Settings for information on the

content of the .ini file, how to preserve comments you add to the

file, and how to export settings to multiple Battery Management

Systems.
