We're going to scrap our Eaton PowerWare 9910 with the xSlot Relay Card. It's less than a year old and under IBM maintenance but we're going to replace it with an APC. The first one didn't last 4 years. What a dumb unit it is for our 9406-520.

Subject: 9406-520 Eaton Powerware 9330 Cable
Has anyone had any success hooking up a 9406-520 to an Eaton PowerWare with the xSlot Relay Interface card?
We have built a cable with the pinots as described in the Eaton/IBM docs.
When we put the UPS on Bypass the 520 sees it as a Utility Failure.
Here is Eaton's page for the xSlot documentation:
http://www.powerware.com/UPS/Connectivity/Relay_Interface_info.asp
IBM document number 350941184 for the IBM side of the pin outs.
I am using a DB15 to DB9 cable from Eaton w/o the IBM convertor cable, and have the ability to remove/insert the pins on each end of the cable as needed.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
