RELEASE NOTES PowerAlert Device Manager 15.5.7 (Build 1094) 03-AUG-2020 Copyright (c) 2020 by Tripp Lite All Rights Reserved IMPORTANT NOTES * As of firmware version 15.5.7, PowerAlert Device Manager (PADM) applies the following security policies: -- On initial login with any of the pre-configured Local Users – localadmin, localmanager or localguest PADM will force the user to change the default password. -- The default passwords localadmin, localmanager and localguest are restricted and cannot be used for any user. -- The preconfigured SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 users – public and tripplite, respectively – are disabled, by default. Note that PowerAlert Network Management System (PANMS) and PowerAlert Network Shutdown Agent (PANSA) will not discover devices until SNMPv2 user tripplite is enabled. -- The default password of the pre-configured SNMPv3 users – localadmin, localmanager or localguest – must be changed prior to use. Note that the new entry will be saved as both the authentication and privacy passwords. -- If the Administrator (with new password) navigates to Configuration > Security > User and saves any edits on the page, a warning message will appear about changing the Password and Auth Password for localmanager and localguest. * Please be informed that in future firmware releases – beyond 15.5.x – the menu interface of LX Platform devices will no longer be supported. It will be replaced by a full-featured Command Line Interface (CLI), capable of the same functionality as the web interface. REQUIREMENTS * PowerAlert Mass Updater Utility version 1.1.0 (Build 17134) or higher can be used to upgrade prior versions of 15.x to 15.5.7.

5012, 5017 and 5023 protocols * Added support for Output Power Factor for 4201 protocol * Added password support for California Senate Bill 327 Chapter 886 KNOWN ISSUES * Shutdown Device is written twice to the event log * tlpEnvOutputContactCurrentState is not writable * Device ID is not editable on 5009 and 5022 protocols * An apostrophe character used when naming an action is rejected and

of Phases is not displayed for certain devices * Incorrectly displaying Enable Online Mode for certain devices * upsSecondsOnBattery not supported * Saving an auto probe via Menu interface will display an error when no IP address is specified on a disabled probe * Clearing the default auto probes do not reset all changed fields to original values * Modifying delay for the default email action may disassociate that action from events * SNMPv2c not supported for Set OID actions * Serial numbers are not editable using SNMP for devices that do not support serial numbers * The web interface automatically logs out after a period of inactivity when the timeout period is disabled * A space character is rejected when used for naming a device * A space character used when entering a

* Entering a session or inactivity timeout greater than 32767 locks Administrator out of web GUI sessions * Configuring ACL for non-SNMP users is rejected * sysContact is not configurable * BMS serial number is not reported via SNMP for 3018 protocol * System allows user to send turn on and off device multiple times in a row * System does not obtain an IP address from DHCP if network is not available during bootup * Fan Always On and Remote Setpoint do not return to original value after dehumidifying event * Fan Always On can be set after Remote Setpoint is disabled * Reboot device will not operate properly if restart time is less than shutdown time * "Save and Reboot" after changing a subnet mask sometimes does not save the change [Use save without reboot, then reboot the card instead] * Changing a subnet mask to a value not in conformance with one's network will prevent all remote access to the system * tlpCoolingQuietMode is listed in MIB as read-write, but should be read-only * tlpCoolingHotGasBypass is listed in MIB as read-write, but should be read-only * Hovering the mouse over role, keyword and importance in Device Settings display incorrect values * Lowest temperature setting (63 degrees) does not save for 9002 protocol * Battery Age on 4006 protocol does not update and remains zero when Last Battery Replace Date exceeds 36 months * Device Mode on 4006 protocol does not show Standby after placing the unit in Standby mode * Reset Battery Transition Count should be listed as a Reset Control * Water Full/Not Full messages appear during power cycles on 9002 protocol * Operating Mode displays Not Connected when the LX card is disconnected on a 9002 Protocol [Reboot unit to correct] * Load importance selector allows for choose values out of range (should be 1-100) * Incorrect Nominal Output Voltage selections are presented on a 4201 protocol * Nominal Output Voltage cannot be configured on a 4201 protocol * Enable Online Mode should be listed as an Enable Control * Auto Fan Speed does not automatically update on the GUI panel using IE (Updates are correct using Chrome and Firefox) * Device ID reverts back to zero(0) regardless of value saved on SM8896 on 3021 protocol * Battery Minutes Remaining does not display a value when on battery on PS6794 on 4100 protocol * Battery Age Above Threshold alarm does not clear after changing

tlpEnvOutputContactCurrentState does not change the state of the contact on 9300 protocol * Cycling a load group does not clearly display state change between off and on * Ramp and shed delays become out of sync when setting value via SNMP -- A 20 second idle timeout is invoked prior to writing ramp and shed changes to the device. All values set after the idle timeout expires are not written. Rebooting the device will reload the values from the device. An alternative is to use the GUI to set ramp and shed values. * RTC is not set on 4009 protocol * Some smart battery packs are reported as non-smart on 4008 protocol * tlpUpsConfigInputVoltage is returned in error when only output voltage is supported on 4006 protocol * Bypass Limit values can be set outside of the operating range on 4007 and 4008 protocols. * Ramp and shed settings are allowed via SNMP during a synchronization process causing values to not get saved * Output Current Changed trap not sent on 5001 protocol * Sporatic communication issues reported on 4010 protocol * SV60K does not respond to upsOutputSource or upsEstimatedChargeRemaining * Access to LX card is lost when the device transfers to standby on 3027 protocol * Quiet Mode is not editable using GUI or CLI on 9002 protocol * devsd CLI command ignores delay value and executes immediately on 3027 protocol * Temperature derating alarm suggests checking battery temperature on 3027 protocol, but should suggest checking device temperature instead * The alert clear event description for contacts 1 and 2 on 3027 protocol differ from contacts 3 through 6 END RELEASE NOTES
