If you want the data cable:

• phone 0870 555 4556
• take option 2 (sales)
• quote part number 295501-001

The cables are £21 + vat and aparently have free delivery..

Have fun..




(Note to BGH, this is a copy of the one in the trading post.. dont delete it as people dont seem to go in there very often)

[WhiteKnight]

BTW: If anyone wants one of these, there are more available..

However

The price is now £70 + VAT + Delivery

So final price will probably be about £125

I can post details if anyone is interested.

[WhiteKnight]

OK, a few more points..

The pinouts for the cable are as follows.. (ive bought one. )

male -> female
1 -> 3
2 -> 2
4 -> 5
6 -> 7
and 4 <-> 6 on the female side are linked

The software you require can be located from here. (you`ll have to dig them out your self as there are different links for different OSs)

http://www.compaq.com/support/files/.../us/index.html

Do a "Search by catagory" and select your OS and "Management Agents"

The items you need are..

Compaq System Management Driver
Compaq Foundation Agents for Windows
Compaq Power Management Software

And you also need the software linked in the first post.

Install them in the above listed order and it should work like a charm.

WARNIG: These files are quite big and willl take a while to download (unless you are a git and have broadband )

[WhiteKnight]

Ok, small problem.

Unless i`m doing somthing stupidly wrong, the 2k software doesnt seem to like installing (presumably being too inteligent for its own good and looking for a compaq BIOS or somthing)

So it looks like its NT or nothing

Ho hum.

[MONK]

d'oh

oh well... thing still work at any rate!

[wishy]

WK, you could make a dedicated NT UPS monitoring box
/me digs out NT4 server disks and 486 SX25

[WhiteKnight]

I was just about to, but it wont be 100% dedicated...

it`ll also be doing rendering and United Devices

[Cabe]

ahh yes the l33t0r "R0ut3r of d34th"

Dually 550's don'tcha know

[WhiteKnight]

Erm, no... the l33t0r "R0ut3r of d34th" is just that, a router (render / UD too..)

But that`ll be 2k....

This`ll be using the Celeron i`m aving off you...



Prolly another one of them asus boards.

/me hugs the FlexATX mobo of doom

[wishy]

A Celeron? Your overspecifiying again WK, Don't touch anything above a 486

[Cabe]

I suspect he's building a MegaLITH node

[WhiteKnight]

Over speccing ?

Its a render node... it needs some power...

and any thats left can go to serving the UPS web page

Besides, i already have the chip..

[MONK]

See if I can run the cable over a piece of CAT6
