Phoenix Contact’s free UPS-CONF software enables the Qunit UPS-IQ and Trio UPS systems to be monitored and configured conveniently and clearly. The new version 2.2.7.0 features improvements and enhancements.
New warning messages signal, for example, whether the UPS remote control is activated or whether a communication error has occurred between the UPS and the batteries. The new COM trigger mode can be useful if several PCs need to be shut down in a controlled manner in the event of a mains failure; here the signal contacts of the UPS initiate a shutdown of the PC via the COM port, which means that no permanent data cable connections are required, regardless of the Windows version being used. DC UPS devices with 5, 10, 20, and 40 A from revision 06 can now switch off loads in a staggered sequence: when the UPS buffers a mains failure, two separate timers start, whereby previously defined consumers cease to be supplied by the battery after a set time.
The software automatically detects the connected power storage, for example a battery with 12 Ah capacity. All relevant operating parameters are displayed graphically and important messages appear in the foreground. The behaviour of the UPS modules can be changed via the software to suit individual requirements.
