SITOP DC UPS tool

Via the USB interface, all relevant messages about the status of the uninterruptible DC power supply can be transmitted to a PC (e.g. SIMATIC IPC). The DC UPS can also be configured via the USB interface.

The SITOP DC UPS software provides the user with a free tool that is extremely easy to use for the purpose of monitoring and configuring the DC UPS. Signals sent from the uninterruptible DC power supply can be processed on the PC. In monitoring mode, the statuses of the uninterruptible DC power supply are visualized on the PC.

Safe shutdown in the event of a power failure and automatic PC restart are supported. It is also possible to freely define responses to the different operating states of the uninterruptible DC power supply, so that extremely flexible integration into a wide variety of applications is possible.

Overview of configuration possibilities:

• Times for shutting down the PC
• UPS switch-off
• Further processing of all signals, e.g. linking to proprietary software or WinCC flexible
• Monitoring and display of UPS operating status
• OPC server for linking signals to proprietary applications
• Automatic restarting of IPCs when power is restored during shutdown

The software runs under the Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7 operating systems. It is available to download for free from the SITOP homepage.
