Smart UPS 1500 access over ethernet issue

[BrienL]

have a Smart UPS SMT1500C model ups and cannot access the device over ethernet, i plugged it into the network and can see it gets a IP address but i cant access it with the ip address on a web browser, tried the ip address utility from APC and it cant find it either.  reset the UPS to defaults as well still no luck.

Thanks

A SmartConnect UPS is designed to be accessed through the cloud. It does not have an interface for direct connection via LAN. You will find more information on the cloud and how to access the UPS via the cloud at SmartConnect.apc.com

If access via LAN is required  you can install a network management card. Available cards for SMT Smart-UPS will be found on this web page.
