CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
The BestLink SNMP/WEB Adapter is a network adapter for your
uninterruptible power system (UPS) that provides both SNMP and HTTP
compatibility, as well as advanced communication with true RS-232.
The BestLink SNMP/WEB Adapter is available in two models: and internal
for UPSs with a BestDock slot and external for connection to the UPS serial
port. Both models can connect to a twisted-pair Ethernet (10baseT) network
using an RJ-45 connector.
SNMP-compatible network management software (user-supplied) may be
used to monitor the UPS in a method similar to that of other network devices.
Others may wish to use a web browser such as NetscapeZor Microsoft
9
Internet Explorer to monitor and manage the connected UPS.
The adapter also supports remote monitoring and shutdown from
UPS-protected computer systems. NetWatch client software for use with a
BestLink Adapter is supplied on the Invensys Software Suite CD or on the
web at www.powerware.com. Client software is available for
Windows
9
95/98/NT/2000, Novell
9
NetWare
9
and various versions of UNIX
9
These programs communicate through TCP/IP with the BestLink Adapter and
automatically shutdown the protected system during extended power outages.
In addition, the BestLink SNMP/WEB Adapter has the following features:
:Configuration from serial port, telnet, or HTTP web browser.
:Management from HTTP web browser or SNMP management software.
:Supports MIB_II and BestLink MIB (bestpwr2.mib) management
information bases.
:Firmware upgradable from a Windows utility via a network connection.
:Scheduling function to control UPS shutdowns and startups.
:History log files (data and events) for recording power problems.
:UPS status information available to registered NetWatch clients for
automatic shutdown of Windows 95/98/NT/2000, Novell NetWare, and
UNIX.
:E-mail notification of changes in the UPS status.

INSTALLATION
Installing the Internal BestLink Adapter
CAUTION
Before installing or removing the BestLink SNMP/WEB Adapter, the UPS MUST be turned off.
Hot-swapping is prohibited.
To install the internal BestLink SNMP/WEB Adapter, perform the following
steps:
1. Remove the BestDock cover on the UPS rear panel. Retain the
screws.
2. Install one of the mounting plates on the BestLink Adapter according
to your UPS model. Use the supplied screw to secure the mounting
plate to the adapter.
Any one of the three tabs can be removed from the three-tab
mounting plate so that the adapter fits securely into the UPS slot.
3. To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), place one hand on a metal
surface such as the UPS rear panel.
Slide the BestLink Adapter into the open slot and secure with the
screws removed in Step 1 (see Figure 2).

NOTE For an internal BestLink Adapter in a FERRUPS 0800, Axxium Pro, or Powerware 9170
UPS, you MUST change the Config BestDock parameter for that UPS to BestDock 1 or 2 as
applicable. Refer to the UPS user’s guide for detailed instructions on how to change the
parameter through the UPS front panel configuration menu.
6. Continue to “Configuration” on page 6.
Installing the External BestLink Adapter
To install the external BestLink SNMP/WEB Adapter, perform the following
steps:
1. Verify that the UPS is turned off.
2. Use the supplied serial cable labeled “UPS” to connect the UPS port
on the BestLink Adapter to the UPS communication port.
If connecting to a FERRUPS model with a DB-25S communication
port, you must also use the supplied DB-9 to DB-25 adapter labeled
INT-0013B.
3. Set both DIP switches on the adapter to the 0(off) position.
