The APC UPS monitor watches your American Power Conversion Uninterruptible Power Supply (APC UPS) device and alerts you when selected thresholds are met or exceeded, output states are reached, and/or abnormal conditions are met.

Provide a unique name and description for the monitor, then configure the following:

  • Thresholds. Select which thresholds to monitor. Click Configure to set individual threshold settings if desired.
  • Monitor the following output states. Select the output state(s) on which you want to be alerted.
  • Monitor the following abnormal conditions. Select the abnormal condition(s) on which you want to be alerted.

Click Advanced to set the SNMP timeout and number of retries as well as enable Use in Rescan if desired.

Example: An alert can be sent when the UPS battery capacity is below 20%, when the battery temperature is high, when the battery is in bypass mode due to a battery overload state, and many other UPS alert conditions.
