Network Cables on the LAN port of the device.

External Version Connect the UPS with the original UPS cable to the COM1 port of the CS141.

Slot Version Put the device into the slot interface of the UPS. For the installation of the UPS, have a look into the User Manual which is part of the documentation CD or could be downloaded from the homepage of your UPS manufacturer. All UPS functions and the usage of flexible events etc. are described in the CS141 User Manual!

Installation/Network Integration of a CS141

1. Enabling of configuration mode

4.1. Add the route of the standard IP address on your computer

1. Open the “DOS Command Prompt” or

2. execute “cmd.exe”

3. Enter the following command:

„route add 10.10.10.10 <local IP Address>” (for example: “route add 10.10.10.10 192.168.222.54” )

4. Execute the command "ping 10.10.10.10" to check

if the device is reachable. Advice: The CS141 needs approximately 30 seconds to start the webserver. If the webserver runs, the LED will changes from red (booting) to green and starts blinking.

4.2. Automatic search with the tool "Netfinder"

The following link leads to the software "NetFinder" that search your device on the network automatically: http://www.generex.de/generex/download/software/install/NetFinder.zip

1. Start a Browser

2. Enter the address http://10.10.10.10

3. For the login choose the

user name: „admin“ Default password: „cs141-snmp“ Note: Modern web browsers tend to cache files for later use. This browser behavior is often the cause of presentation and connection errors. In this case, delete the browser cache and press CTRL + F5.

5. Access via HTTP connection and login

4. Access to the CS141 over the network

6. Choose language

1. Choose the entry

- System

- General

At the drop-down menu on the left side.

2. Choose the preferred „Language“.

1. Choose the entry

- System - Network at the drop-down menu on the left side.

2. Enter the values for

- Local Address

- Subnet Mask

- Default Gateway

("DNS-Server", if desired)

3. Press the button “Apply” to commit the changes.

4. Choose the entry

- System - Date & Time in the drop-down menu.

5. Enter the „IP Address“ of your timeserver and

synchronize the CS141 with this server. The timeserver settings are important for the event- / alarm logging. (If no timeserver is configured the time will be set to 01.01.2000 00:00).

6. The changes of each configuration page have to

commit by pressing the button “Apply”.

7. Choose the point

- Devices - UPS - Setup in the drop-down menu for the UPS configuration.

8. Choose the „UPS Model“, which is connected to

the CS141.

9. Click on the button “Apply” to save the changes.

More Information about the UPS settings are available in the CS141 User Manual.

7. Configure the IP address of the CS141

Basic Network Settings

English

Connect the LAN port of the device with a RJ45 network cable (not included) to the network.

The CS141 is reachable on the IP address 10.10.10.10 !

1. For changing into the operating mode push the

Slide Switch in the left position / DIP SW 1 in the position ON.

2. For Cold-Boot remove the power supply from the

CS141.

3. Connect the CS141 to the power supply again.

The CS141 is reachable at the configured IP address. (The address 10.10.10.10 isn't reachable anymore!)

10. Sending shutdown signals to computers on the network

For shutting down a computer in case of a power failure it is necessary to install an RCCMD client on it. Some configurations into the event management of the adapter have to be done, too. Installation of the RCCMD client

1. Download the setup file from the UPS-

Management CD or from from the internet.

2. Each RCCMD installation requires a seperate

license key. For some products, a license key is included. More licenses are available at your supplier.

9. Switch into the operation mode

Power Supply

3. In the first menu, you have to enter the IP address

of the adapter whose shutdown signals should receive. Commit the following default configuration. Note the shutdown file in the last window. For editing the shutdown sequence of the client, press the button "configure" (It is also possible to edit the batch file to change or add events.) the installation finishes by pressing "install" and the service will start.

1. Choose the entry

- Devices - UPS - Events from the drop-down menu.

2. Click the Button “+” next to the event “Powerfail”.

3. The Job-Editor starts. Choose the option

“RCCMD Shutdown” from the menu.

4. Enter the „IP Address“ of your client (The

Listener Port is usually 6003). At the right side you can specify when the shutdown signal is going to be released, for example „At 300 seconds remaining time“.

5. Click the button „Save Configuration“.

6. For security reasons it is recommended to make

the same RCCMD shutdown entries at „Powerfail“ for

the Event “Battery low” - but here without any delays

to avoid that the server crashes because of low

battery alarm!

The CS141 can be a variety of environmental

sensors and other measuring devices are combined,

to temperature, humidity, fire and smoke, motion and

intrusion, pressure, levels etc. to be monitored.

In addition, other components such as various

mounting brackets, BACnet Converter, PROFIBUS

Converter etc. available. Please ask your UPS

manufacturers / suppliers for more detailed

information about the options available.
