SNMP Manager is a plug-in utility for ViewPower Pro designed to search and operate all SNMP devices in the LAN.
Select the SNMP Manager to access the SNMP management tool. This is made up of four sections, as seen in the illustration
below:

Delete

You may select an IP address from the list and remove it by clicking the Del button.

SNMP status

This section displays the SNMP status, 0 or 1, after selecting an IP from the corresponding list. If there is a program inside the
selected SNMP card, the status becomes 1; otherwise 0 will be displayed. If no IP address is selected, then “---“ will be shown
as default.

A. Function menu: contains the main parameters for setting SNMP devices.
B. SNMP device list: displays all SNMP devices with their IP addresses.
C. Configuration area: includes IP settings, online upgrade, password management and static address menus.
D. Output window: exhibits messages related to the device operation.

2.9.1- SNMP device list

The default value listed in the window would be the current PC IP segment. For example, if the IP address of PC being used is
192.168.102.10, then it will be displayed as 192.168.102 when first enabling the SNMP Manager.

Scan

Click the Scan button to search for the UPS within the IP segment selected. Reset

Add Should the IP addresses of devices need to be reinitiated, check the SNMP reset enable box followed by the Reset button.
Once login is confirmed, you can restart the device. In order to do so, please follow the procedure detailed below:
Click on the Add button to open up the window for entering a specific IP segment. Then, click on the Apply button to add an IP
address (Subnet) as seen in the image below. Step 1: Select the IP address you need to restart from the IP list. Then, SNMP reset enable will become available.

Online upgrade

IP settings Three methods are available to perform online upgrades:

∙ Upgrade the selected devices: It will update all SNMP devices listed in the IP list.
∙ Upgrade all un-upgraded devices: It will only update SNMP devices which are not using the latest version.
∙ Force to upgrade all devices: No matter what version is being used for SNMP devices listed in the IP list, the system will
update to the latest version for all SNMP devices.

Step 1: select the FTP server IP address as seen in the illustration included above.

NOTE: If upgrading the SNMP Web Server in the LAN, the FTP server IP address will be the IP address of the current PC in the
LAN. If upgrading the SNMP Web Server in a network, the FTP server IP address will be the IP address of the current PC with
internet access.

Step 3: Click the Upgrade button to initiate the device update. System management

Step 4: When the update is complete, you may check the message in the output window. Part A: You can set the SNMP protocol version for the selected or all the devices. Simply choose the SNMP protocol version
first. The default setting is V2. If choosing V3, the encryption of data packets must be set. Select devices to apply this setting.
NOTE: If an error occurs during the process, the system will automatically reinitiate the update. If the same error is repeated five
times, then the system will automatically cancel the operation. In this case, check if the LAN is working correctly. ∙ Select device: sets the SNMP protocol version for the selected SNMP devices in the list.
∙ Select all: sets the SNMP protocol version for all SNMP devices in the list.

When done, click on the Apply button to finish the version setting in the system.

Part B: You may modify a single password for one SNMP device or all passwords for all SNMP devices. Enter original password,
new password and reenter the new password. Select the devices this setting will be applied to.

∙ Select device: changes the password for the selected SNMP device in the list.
∙ Select all: changes the passwords for all SNMP devices on the list.

password must be consistently used to access each of them.

Static trap address

It is possible to configure two static addresses and change the port through the SNMP Manager. The default port is 162, as
shown in the illustration below.

NOTE: This software allows a SNMP device to send trap messages to 2 static trap addresses and 8 dynamic trap addresses. The
host computer with the software installed as a dynamic trap address is defined as the default agent. If a communication failure
occurs between the SNMP card and host computer for over 10 minutes, trap messages will be interrupted.
4.1 HTTPS/HTTP
Communication protocol: When HTTPS is chosen, HTTPS selection will be accessible from the tray menu. The port cannot be
3.3 Language modified if the communication port of the HTTPS is fixed in 18443. In this case, the URL of the monitoring screen will change to:
There are 12 languages available in the SNMP Manager: https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:18443/ViewPowerPro.
When HTTP is chosen, HTTPS selection will not be allowed; however, the port modification option will be now enabled in the
system.

Scheduled power off

UPS on/off times can be scheduled as a one-time occurrence, or on a daily or weekly basis. Click on the UPS and select the time
parameters you wish to apply. It is recommended to set only one action at a particular time. If multiple tasks are programmed
simultaneously, some might be ignored. If an action is not supported by the UPS system, it will have no effect.

Step 1: Select the Schedule followed by the Scheduled on/off tab, as shown below:

 Step 2: Set the frequency and time on the right column.
NOTE: Please be aware of the following rules when setting the schedule.

Once – power-off time should be earlier than power-on time.

Daily schedule – power-off time should be earlier than power-on time. Power-on and power-off times should be set on the
same day.
Weekly schedule – power-off time should be earlier than power-on time. Power-on and power-off times should be within
the same week.

Step 3: Click Add to include the task. If a task is successfully set, it will be displayed in the list on the left-hand side of the
screen. Simply select and click the Delete button if you wish to eliminate a particular task.
