Installation and Quick Start 9

Expansion/Triple Chassis Installation

When to use an

Expansion

Chassis

Use an Expansion Chassis or a Triple Expansion Chassis if the

UPS has no card slot available.

When you install the Management Card in the chassis, it

communicates with the UPS through the cable connection

between the chassis and the UPS.

When to use the

AC adapter

(AP9505)

Use the optional AC adapter with a chassis under the following

circumstances:

• To connect the chassis to an independent AC input so

that the Management Card can continue to operate if the

UPS is turned off or fails.

• To provide the APC management products mounted in a

Triple Expansion Chassis with more current than the

UPS can provide through the UPS-to-chassis cable.

– A Silcon UPS provides up to 500 mA.

– A Matrix-UPS, Smart-UPS, or Symmetra UPS

provide up to 200 mA.

Step 1:

Disconnect the

chassis from all

power

Make sure that the chassis is disconnected from any power

source:

• Disconnect the chassis cable from the UPS.

• If the UPS uses an AC adapter, disconnect that adapter

from the chassis.

Note

Use only a Silcon Triple Chassis Protocol

Converter (AP9604S) with a Silcon UPS or an

AIS 5000 UPS.
