Configuring user settings

User settings can be configured via front panel. Select Settings from main menu and then select User Settings.

Changing language

Pressing and holding down the first button on the left for about 5 seconds selects the language menu. This action is possible from any LCD menu screen.

Table 40. Required battery charge currents.

Select Maximum charging current from User Settings menu. Default setting is 3.0 Amps and it is changeable up to 20 Amps. Minimum step is 0.1 A.

Note!

Maximum charging current is dependent on output load and power rate of the UPS. If the UPS is supporting maximum output load the highest level of Maximum charging current is

3.0A, which is also the default setting. As a thumb rule, 1 kW decrease in the load provides extra 2.0 A charging capacity. For example, the charging capacity is 5 Amps at 8 kW load, and 7 A at 7 kW load.

Using relay outputs

Relay outputs can be used for remote alarm indications.

Each relay has four standard pre-programmed settings for alarms:

on bypass, UPS ok, battery low, on battery

One of the standard relay settings is “custom” that can be customised by the user. The procedure to select customised alarms:

1.Push any key of the control panel to enable the functions on the LCD screen.

2.First select “SETTINGS”, then “USER SETTINGS” and finally “RELAY CONFIG” from the LCD menu.

3.Select the relay what is needed to be configured (ALARM-1 is fixed relay output X57).

4.Select “empty” to clear old settings.

5.Select “custom” and activate needed alarms with the button on the right.

6.After the selection press “OK” button

7.Finally test that UPS alarms correctly
