Master server 
versus Interface 
Expander 
servers
A “master” server is a server connected to the (Advanced) 
computer interface port of the UPS. This server uses 
PowerChute plus, configured for smart signaling, to moni-
tor and control the UPS. Although the Advanced port on the 
UPS can provide simple signaling, we strongly recommend 
using it for smart signaling with the advanced capabilities of 
PowerChute plus.
Servers connected to the Basic ports of the Interface 
Expander use simple signaling with PowerChute or 
PowerChute plus to provide UPS shutdown capabilities and 
advanced notification features. If you are running 
PowerChute plus on these servers, you must configure it for 
simple signaling. See “Configuring PowerChute plus for 
simple signaling” on page 9.
