Connecting Your Master and Protected servers (BSUs)

To connect your master and protected servers, perform the following steps:
1. As the installation progresses, connect the power cables from individual
system components to the receptacles of the AC distribution panel located in
the rear of the UPS. See Figure 5-8, F.
2. Designate one server to be your master server and connect the black smart
signaling cable (Figure 5-8, C) received with the PowerChute
between a server serial port and the UPS smart signaling port.
3. On your configuration worksheet, note which server and serial port are
connected as master. The System Administrator will need this information
when loading and configuring PowerChute
4. Using the gray simple signaling cable (Figure 5-8, A) from the interface kit,
connect the server(s) being protected to the basic monitoring ports 1 and 2 of
the interface expander accessory.
5. On your configuration worksheet, identify each protected server and its
connection to the basic monitoring ports.
