1. Introduction
PowerAlert® software provides monitoring and control functions for up to two Tripp Lite UPS systems.
Installed on a desktop PC or network server, which is connected to the UPS system(s) through a serial or USB cable
connection, PowerAlert software can be configured to automatically shut down the computer in the event of a power failure.
It also allows the UPS system(s) to appear as an SNMP-manageable device on the network, enabling remote monitoring and
control via PowerAlert Network Management System (PANMS) software or a third-party Network Management System.
PowerAlert software is available in three packages:
• Office: Advanced monitoring and control functions
• Home: Basic monitoring and control functions
• Medical: Monitoring and control functions optimized for use with Tripp Lite Medical Cart solutions
1.2. Components
