What are the UPS Console, Agent, and Server?

• The UPS software consists of 3 components. The Agent resides on the Collector where the UPS serial cable is connected. The Agent program is what activates a shutdown sequence under certain conditions. A Console may reside on each Viewer, and a Server will reside on the primary Viewer, NOT on the Collector. The UPS Server is merely the program that will allow various Consoles to communicate with the Agent. The Server MUST be installed with the same user/password as the Agent. If you cannot log in, you must re-install either the Agent, Server, or both, as this is where the user/password are assigned.
