• A mouse or other pointing device

2. Log on to the host as root. You may need to add "execute" mode to the saved file (chmod +x ML_35_xxx_AIX_PPC.bin).
3. Extract the *.bin file from the GNU zip file to a location of your choice and begin the install process
4. If you intend to connect your Liebert UPS to a serial port on the computer on which MultiLink will be installed, you will need to make or purchase a custom cable for the software to work. ORDINARY SERIAL CABLES WILL NOT WORK! Some UPS models ship with a MultiLink cable. Please refer to the APPENDIX B of the Liebert MultiLink Advanced; User Manual; (REV03_08/12) (SL-53625) for detailed instruction on "Making Your Own MultiLink UPS Cable" from parts available at most electronics parts stores.

If you decide to purchase a cable instead of building one, you can contact your local Liebert Representative, Value-Added Reseller, or distributor and ask to purchase a MultiLink UPS cable.
