How to Test a UPS

This section contains information on using OIDs to perform UPS self-tests and runtime calibrations.

[upsTest]

The [upsTest] category contains the [upsAdvTest] sub-category for use by smart-signalling

Management Cards or PowerNet Agents. There are no OIDs in the [upsTest] category for performing

self-tests and calibrations for UPSs connected in simple-signalling mode because simple-signalling

does not support those functions.

[upsAdvTest]

You can use the OIDS in the [upsAdvTest] sub-category to schedule or initiate UPS self-tests and

runtime calibrations and to view the results of UPS self-tests.

The OIDs in this sub-category have the following limitations on their use:

• A Management Card can use all these OIDS except upsAdvTestLastDiagnosticsDate, which

can be used only by a PowerNet Agent.

• A PowerNet Agent can use all these OIDs except upsAdvTestRuntimeCalibration, which can

be used only by a Management Card

apcUpsConfigFieldIndex

apcUpsConfigFieldOID

apcUpsConfigFieldValueRange

Obtain the allowed values for all settable OIDs in the

[upsAdvConfig] group.

• The index to an EEPROM field entry.

• The OID of the current configurable value.

• A comma-delimited list of allowed values for the OID

OID Task (page 3 of 3)

If a SET specifies an unsupported value, the UPS interprets the value as the next lower allowed

value, as defined by the apcUpsConfigFieldValueRange OID in the tabled set of OIDs

{upsAdvConfigAllowedSetTable}. If the value is less than the lowest allowable value, the lowest

allowed value is used.

If a SET specifies an unsupported value, the UPS interprets the value as the next higher allowed

value, as defined by the apcUpsConfigFieldValueRange OID in the tabled set of OIDs

{upsAdvConfigAllowedSetTable}. If the value is higher than the highest allowable value, the

highest allowed value is used.
