Apcupsd

Configuration Directives Used to Set the UPS EEPROM

These directives have no effect on the operation of apcupsd but are reserved for use by apctest when bulk programming the values of the UPS EEPROM configuration variables in a Smart-UPS model.

UPSNAME <string>

   Name of UPS. Maximum of 8 characters.

BATTDATE [ mm/dd/yy | dd/mm/yy ]

   Last battery replacement date. Maximum of 8 characters.

SENSITIVITY [ H | M | L ]

   H : High (most sensitive setting) M : Medium L : Low (least sensitive setting)

WAKEUP [ 000 | 060 | 180 | 300 ]

   The time delay in seconds that the UPS waits after the return of utility power before "waking up" and restoring power to the connected equipment.

SLEEP [ 020 | 180 | 300 | 600 ]

   The time delay in seconds for which the UPS waits or "sleeps" after it receives a request to power off the connected system.

LOTRANSFER <voltage>

   Low line voltage causing transfer to battery power or activation of SmartBoost. Allowable values depend on the last letter of the firmware or APCMODEL. Typical values are:

   D  106  103  100  097
   M  177  172  168  182
   A  092  090  088  086
   I  208  204  200  196

   where D = domestic (USA), M = Canada, A = Asia and I = International.

HITRANSFER <voltage>

   High line voltage causing transfer to battery power or activation of SmartTrim. Allowable values depend on the last letter of the firmware or APCMODEL. Typical values are:

   D  127  130  133  136
   M  229  234  239  224
   A  108  110  112  114
   I  253  257  261  265

   where D = domestic (USA), M = Canada, A = Asia and I = International.

RETURNCHARGE [ 00 | 15 | 50 | 90 ]

   Percentage of battery charge needed for the UPS to restore power to the connected equipment.

BEEPSTATE [ 0 | T | L | N ]

   Alarm delay.

   0 : Zero delay after power fails.
   T : When power fails plus 30 seconds.
   L : When low battery occurs.
   N : Never.

LOWBATT <minutes>

   Low battery warning occurs when the specified number of minutes remains before the UPS estimates battery power will be exhausted. There are four user-changeable settings: 2, 5, 7, or 10 minutes

OUTPUTVOLTS <voltage>

   UPS nominal output voltage when running on battery. Allowable values depend on the last letter of the firmware or APCMODEL. Typical values are:

   D  115
   M  208
   A  100
   I  230  240  220  225

   where D = domestic (USA), M = Canada, A = Asia and I = International.

SELFTEST [ 336 | 168 | ON | OFF ]

   Self test interval in hours (336 = 2 weeks, 168 = 1 week, ON = at power on, OFF = never).
