RE: UPS Questions

["Jeff Crosby" <jlcrosby@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I read through the whole thread.  Ah, memories.

We have the UPS attached to a J14 port on the 0595 expansion unit.  It is
working properly in that we have had short power outages since then, and my
UPS handling programs are responding properly.  I believe changing to that
J14 port ultimately cleared things up.  I could test by unplugging the UPS
cable and reattaching, but I don't think that will help you if you're not
using a J14 port.
