VIGILANT 7 UPS SOFTWARE ON CHLORIDE POWERLAN UPS
ON NCR 3000 SYSTEMS RUNNING UNIX SVR4
This is to introduce the Chloride PowerLan range of UPS devices together with their associated software suite called Vigilant 7.
The Chloride UPSs are the larger size, typically 3KVA or 7KVA, and will probably be used with NCR 4300s only. The UPS will usually consist of a main unit and an add on battery pack. As they are the higher power range they tend to be heavy.
This FECO refers only to Vigilant 7, and a Chloride PowerLan UPS, as connected to an NCR 3000 system running UNIX SVR4.
Ensure the computer system is shutdown and turned off correctly.
Install Chloride PowerLan the UPS and any battery packs as per the installation instructions provided with the UPS.
Connect the interface cable provided, to the first computer COMM port, and then to the UPS. Do not use any form of adapter at the UPS end.
Restart the UPS and computer system.
Disable ttymon from monitoring the port.
In root enter
pmadm l
This command lists the PMTAG and SVCTAG for each port.
Note these values and substitute the values of these tags in the following command
pmadm d p {PMTAG} s{SVCTAG} < CR>
Install VIGILANT 7.
