The APC
®
Remote Power-Off Device (RPO), AP9830,
enables you to turn off the output power of an APC
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) immediately by a remote
switch. For example:
• If the UPS itself is not readily accessible, place the RPO
in a convenient location.
• To turn off the output power of more than one UPS
remotely by a single switch, set up each UPS with its
own RPO.
The Remote Power-Off Device works with a variety of
switches – normally open, normally closed, and applied
voltage – and supports all functions normally available to the
UPS, including the following:
• Applying power to accessories
• Smart-signaling (advanced signaling)
•UPS Turn-on
•UPS Turn-off
See “How to Turn Off the Output of Multiple
UPSs” on page 20.
