Why does the shutdown occur earlier than the configured time?
The load is too high. Large loads on a UPS will deplete capacity quickly and the remaining runtime will also
drop fast.
1. Reduce the load on the UPS to increase the runtime.
2. Verify that the batteries are fully charged. If the capacity is too low, charge the batteries to full capacity.
Why does the PPPE software provide little UPS information when using the serial connection to the UPS?
Due to difference of serial port specification, your UPS may support either DB9 or RS-232 standard. PPPE
software provides less UPS information using the DB9 than RS-232. If your UPS has USB capability, it is
recommend to use the USB to connect to the UPS in order to obtain more information.
