When customizing DST, the system puts the clock forward by an hour when the time and date you specify
under Start is reached, and puts the clock back an hour when the time and date you specify under End is
reached.
• If your local DST always starts or ends on the fourth occurrence of a specific weekday of a month
(e.g., the fourth Sunday), choose Fourth/Last. If a fifth Sunday occurs in that month, you should
still choose Fourth/Last.
• If your local DST always starts or ends on the last occurrence of a specific weekday of a month,
whether it is the fourth or the fifth occurrence, choose Fifth/Last.
Create and import settings with the config file
Path: Configuration > General > User Config File
Use the settings from one ATS to configure another. Retrieve the config.ini file from the configured ATS,
customize that file (e.g., change the IP address), and upload the customized file to the new ATS. The file name
can be up to 64 characters, and must have the .ini suffix.
To retrieve and customize the file of a configured ATS, see “How to Export Configuration Settings” on
page 101. Instead of uploading the file to one ATS, you can export the file to multiple ATSs by using an FTP or
SCP script.
Configure links
Path: Configuration > General > Quick Links
View and change the URL links displayed at the bottom left of each page of the interface.
By default, these links access the following Web pages:
• APC’s Web Site: The home page of the APC by Schneider Electric web site.
• Testdrive Demo: A page where you can use samples of Web-enabled products.
• APC Monitoring: The home page of the Schneider Electric Remote Monitoring Service.
Configure Logs
Identify Syslog servers
Path: Configuration > Logs > Syslog > Servers
Click Add Server to configure a new Syslog server.
Syslog Server: Uses IPv4/ IPv6 addresses or host names to identify from one to four servers to receive
Syslog messages sent by the ATS.
Port: The port that the ATS will use to send Syslog messages. The default UDP port assigned to Syslog is
514.
Language: Select the language for any Syslog messages.
Protocol: Select either UDP or TCP.
Click Apply to save or Cancel to leave without saving.
Status Reports the progress of the upload. The upload succeeds even if the file contains errors, but a
system event reports the errors in the event log.
Upload Browse to the customized file and upload it so that the current ATS can use it to set its own
configuration.
Download Allows the download of the Configuration File (config.ini) file directly through the web browser to the
user's computer.
