Learn MikroTik RouterOs Tutorial Series (english)
The UPS monitor feature works with APC UPS units that support “smart” signalling over serial RS232 or USB connection. The UPS monitor service is not included in the default set of packages so it needs to be downloaded and installed manually with ups.npk package. This feature enables the network administrator to monitor the UPS and set the router to ‘gracefully’ handle any power outage with no corruption or damage to the router. The basic purpose of this feature is to ensure that the router will come back online after an extended power failure. To do this, the router will monitor the UPS and set itself to hibernate mode when the utility power is down and the UPS battery has less than 10% of its battery power left. The router will then continue to monitor the UPS (while in hibernate mode) and then restart itself when the utility power returns. If the UPS battery is drained and the router loses all power, the router will power back to full operation when the ‘utility’ power returns.

Very nice tutorial as always. Is it possible to monitor more than one UPS and if it can, how can I do it?
Wow... you are so fucking awesome for going through all of this in detail. VERY helpful. Thank you so much.
thanks to teach me
Hi, congratulations, what if I don't configure "offline time" and "min run time"? Thanks.
Hello, I have a monitoring problem between RB960PGS and UPS APC BX1600MI-GR. The router sees the UPS and shows its parameters, but in the Mikrotik logs it constantly spits out UPS Power on and then Power off for a minute. I think that the problem is something in the communication, because the USB of UPS is 1.10, and of RB it is 2.0. I read in the forum, the communication problem was solved with a simple Usb Hub 2.0, I bought one, but the result is the same. I wanted to have monitoring on it, and that was one of my important requirements when buying the UPS, but that's exactly what didn't work as it should.
for some reason when i download then reboot my hex poe. The files disappear. thoughts ?
sir, maybe you can aslo have a tutorial on how to make scripts that enable the mikrotik router to remember the remaining uptime of the hotspot user after the power outage. it always keep on returning to 00:00:00 when power outage occurs, setting up SNTP Client dont help solving this problem, i hope you attend my convert..... good day!
Hi, USB port is not available for selection. You know what is the probable reason?
