You tell the UPS that it has additional battery packs.  There's a
serial-connection command, which is documented somewhere because it worked 
for me years ago when I set up our 3000XL.  Alternatively, if you have a 
SNMP card, I'm fairly sure there's a command in there for adding additional 
battery packs.
