Talking to the APC Smart-UPS AP9606 Web/SNMP network card:

== How to Recover from a Lost Password ==
=== Overview===
If the User Name or Password becomes unknown, you can use a local computer to restore access to a Management Card that uses the APC AOS module, version 3.0 (or later). The latest AOS version is available at the APC web site (www.apcc.com).
=== Recovery procedure ===
To recover from a lost Password or User Name, do the following:
# Select a serial port at the computer to be used for a terminal emulation connection with the Management Card.
# Disable any service that currently uses the selected serial port,such as PowerChute plus or UNIX Respond.
# Disconnect any cable from the selected serial port and connect the smart-signaling cable (940-0024) that came with the Management Card to the selected serial port and to the serial port on the UPS or chassis.
#: Note: If the computer uses smart-signaling PowerChute plus, omit Step 3: A smart-signaling cable (940-0024 or 940-1524) is already installed.
# Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal).
# Configure the serial port for 2400 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control, and save the changes.
# Press ENTER to display the User Name prompt (you may need to press ENTER two or three times).
# Press the reset button on the Management Card.
# Press ENTER to redisplay the User Name prompt.
# Use apc for both the User Name and Password to log in.
#: Note: If you take longer than 30 seconds to log in, you will need to repeat Step 6 through Step 8.
# Select System from the Control Console menu.
# Select User Manager from the System menu.
# Select Administrator from the User Manager menu, and follow the on-screen instructions to change the User Name and Password settings to the new values.
# Press CTRL-C to exit to the Control Console menu.
# Log out to save the changes.
# If necessary, reconnect any cable disconnected from the computer’s serial port in Step 3.
# Restart any service disabled in Step 2.
