Designed to UPS Industry Standard Interface
When a power failure occurs, the Power Monitor broadcasts a message to all logged-on users indicating that the server or workstation is running on battery power. If power is restored, the shutdown timer is reset and a message is broadcast indicating that utility power has been restored. If power is not restored, Power Monitor will perform an automatic, unattended, graceful shutdown of the operating system.
| Provides graceful shutdown |
Upon expiration of the timer or low battery level of the UPS, the software will perform an orderly unattended shutdown of the server. |
| Runs as a background task |
No user interaction required for monitoring. |
| Low battery signal override |
Power Monitor will override shutdown timer if low battery is detected. (May vary by hardware and OS) |
| On-screen power history graph |
Shows number of power outages, longest and shortest AC power outages, average length of outages, number of shutdowns because of timer expiration, and low battery or manual shutdown. |
| Dial out on a modem |
Notifies users of AC power failure, UPS low battery condition and arrival of shutdown time. |
| On-screen countdown timer |
Shows time remaining before shutdown |
| Network broadcast messages |
Informs users that are logged on to the server that power has failed and notifies them to save applications. |
| Records all power events |
All AC power failures, power restored, low battery and system shutting down messages are sent to a special system log file. |
| User modifiable warning messages |
Software allows for configuration of custom broadcast commands. |
| User defined up time |
Allows battery time to be set before shutdown occurs |
| Software loads automatically |
Each time the server is booted, Power Monitor will automatically load and begin monitoring the UPS status. |
| Simple installation |
All installation and configuration screens are designed to be user friendly, ensuring fast setup and easy maintenance. |
| Multiple applications available |
Single UPS monitoring, multiple servers monitoring a single UPS, SNMP monitoring and monitoring UPSs without an interface. |
