6.4 The Alpha UPS Monitor Interface
CAUTION!
Close the Alpha UPS Monitor application and disconnect when not in use.
The Alpha UPS Monitor graphical user interface (GUI) provides web or Windows like computer communications
with the Alpha FXM. The screen and its features, shown in Figure 12, are used to monitor, control and set various
parameters like the date and time, determine when to perform a weekly self test, change the relay configurations,
etc. The on line indicator (F) shows if you are connected to the Alpha FXM.
The Alpha UPS Monitor automatically polls the Alpha FXM to obtain its status. If a light or lights are illuminated in
the Fault or Alarm fields, the Alpha FXM has a malfunction. Hover your mouse cursor over the light to learn the
type of malfunction or double-click on it to go straight to the Alarms & Faults screen.
To control the unit or change settings or parameters, either click on the On/Off buttons, or choose an item from a
drop down menu. Then click on the Update Configuration button. If you do not click on this button, the change
will not happen.
