network UPS good

I deliberately tested the UPS in the furnace room of the CAO. It works!

I found it provides power to the UWO all-sky camera tower computer (but not its monitor). I found it also provides power, via a couple of extension cords, to all the network equipment, i.e. the Georgian.net antennas, switch, and router and our switch and router.

This is good news. And something I was a bit unclear about. Even though it is property of UWO, I documented it.

I found loads of other gear connected to the UPS, unnecessarily! The old unused cathode ray black box beside the server and the wall wart power pack for an old unused ethernet hub were removed by me.
