The host slot and firmware generation decide which card belongs in the UPS
XPC publishes SNMP-2PG1 part 90001245 and SNMP-2PV3 part 90000675 as distinct management products rather than one interchangeable card. Equipment record: XPC SNMP-2PG1, companion identifier SNMP-2PV3. Decision: Select an XPC SNMP card only after the exact UPS host, intelligent-slot generation, card hardware and supported firmware are matched in one cross-reference record.
Two card families are not one spare
A card can fit mechanically and still be electrically or logically wrong for the host. The model suffix identifies the card generation, while the UPS model and firmware determine the supported management image. Network policy begins only after that hardware cross-reference is complete.
For XPC SNMP-2PG1, the applicability boundary is anchored to 2 card families, 2 SNMP security generations and part SNMP-2PV3. The 4 worked inputs remain assumptions until they are recorded at the equipment.
Confirm availability and catalogue details for XPC SNMP-2PG1 or SNMP-2PV3 on the XPC SNMP-2PG1 product record page.

Host, slot, firmware and protocol identifiers
The controlling numerical record is: Named XPC card families: 2 card families; SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 classes: 2 SNMP security generations; Worked intelligent-slot position: 1 host slot; Worked polling interval: 30 s; Host, slot, card and firmware fields: 4 cross-reference fields; Read-only commissioning command basis: 0 V external control. Each value has a defined source or assumption status in the engineering ledger. Values from different configurations are not combined as though they came from one installed system.
| Engineering parameter | Value | Evidence status |
|---|---|---|
| Named XPC card families | 2 card families | Published OEM value |
| SNMPv1 and SNMPv3 classes | 2 SNMP security generations | Published OEM value |
| Worked intelligent-slot position | 1 host slot | Worked design assumption |
| Worked polling interval | 30 s | Worked design assumption |
| Host, slot, card and firmware fields | 4 cross-reference fields | Worked design assumption |
| Read-only commissioning command basis | 0 V external control | Worked design assumption |
The four-field key prevents a card name from being inherited across an entire UPS family. Two published card families create two hardware branches before host and firmware variants are counted. The 30-second poll is a commissioning assumption, not a manufacturer compatibility statement.
A four-field compatibility key
The worked check uses candidate branches = 2 card families x 1 identified host position. With two named card families and one exact UPS host position, the result is two candidates before firmware filtering. Only the candidate explicitly supported for the host and firmware proceeds to bench recognition. The arithmetic is reproducible, but it remains a design check until the listed inputs are confirmed at the equipment.
The two candidates before firmware filtering result follows from candidate branches = 2 card families x 1 identified host position. If the 1 host slot input changes, this check is repeated rather than carrying the earlier result into a different operating state.

Why connector fit does not prove operation
The compatibility row contains the full UPS model, slot label, existing card identifier, proposed card identifier and firmware. A blank suffix is treated as missing data because SNMP-2PG1 and SNMP-2PV3 are not shortened to a generic SNMP-2 entry.
Bench recognition verifies that the UPS identifies the card, the card reads model and status data and the event log remains normal. No remote command is enabled during this stage. A successful ping alone proves only IP reachability.
After recognition, the network build can decide whether SNMPv1 is disabled, SNMPv3 accounts are created and polling reaches the intended management host. Hardware compatibility and cybersecurity acceptance remain separate pass conditions.
| Path | Technical consequence | Disposition |
|---|---|---|
| Apply the stated engineering decision | Select an XPC SNMP card only after the exact UPS host, intelligent-slot generation, card hardware and supported firmware are matched in one cross-reference record. | Selected basis |
| Generic model substitution | Select by family name or rating alone, without confirming the exact configuration. | Not selected on the stated evidence |
| Unverified operating assumption | Treat a design assumption as though it were a site measurement. | Reconsider only if the input changes |

The XPC SNMP-2PG1 decision retains part SNMP-2PV3, the two candidates before firmware filtering calculation result and the manufacturer-published 2 card families point in one equipment record. Applicable OEM instructions, qualified electrical authority and the installed single-line or wiring record remain controlling for any executable work.
Bench recognition before network commissioning
Acceptance of XPC SNMP-2PG1 depends on five recorded checks:
- Photograph the UPS model label and intelligent-slot marking.
- Record the installed and proposed card as SNMP-2PG1 part 90001245 or SNMP-2PV3 part 90000675 without shortening the suffix.
- Confirm the supported host and firmware from the applicable XPC record.
- Bench-test card recognition and read-only status before connecting to production monitoring.
- Record SNMP version, account owner and the 30-second worked poll only after hardware acceptance.
The XPC SNMP-2PG1 record is not accepted if part SNMP-2PV3 does not match, the calculation does not reproduce two candidates before firmware filtering, or the final operating state is not recorded. The equipment returns to the approved safe state when a check stops, and the unresolved condition remains open without an invented repair result.

Cross-reference before purchase or firmware work
The usable spare is the card supported by the exact host and firmware, not the card that shares an Ethernet connector or SNMP label. The cross-reference remains attached to the UPS asset record for the next replacement.
GDF’s UPS service page covers field measurements and service work for XPC SNMP-2PG1.
Decision rule: Select an XPC SNMP card only after the exact UPS host, intelligent-slot generation, card hardware and supported firmware are matched in one cross-reference record. A different model, load, voltage, battery string, software version or operating state requires a new check against the applicable manufacturer record.
