Turning the Unit ON/OFF, Self Test | Minuteman UPS UPS manual

TURNING THE UNIT ON/OFF

ON / OFF / Test Button

Press and release the ON/OFF/Test Button after one beep to turn the UPS ON and supply power to the load. The load is immediately powered while the UPS runs a five-second self test. Press and release the ON/OFF/Test Button after one beep to turn the UPS OFF. The UPS will continue to charge the batteries whenever it is plugged into an AC outlet and there is AC present.

SELF TEST

The self test feature is useful to verify the correct operation of the UPS and the condition of the batteries. With the UPS in the normal On-Line mode, press and hold the ON/OFF/Test Button for approximately 4 seconds (four beeps), then release the button. The UPS will perform a five second self test. During the self test, the UPS will switch to battery power and the On-Line LED will blink and the audible alarm will sound. The length of the test that is automatically performed every two weeks is longer than the start-up or user invoked test. This test will run for approximately fifteen seconds to measure the battery’s capability to provide an acceptable amount of runtime. If the UPS fails a self test, one of the LEDs will remain illuminated indicating the type of problem. (see section 5 Troubleshooting)

Note: The UPS will automatically perform a self test on start-up and every two weeks.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

The DIP Switch setting may be changed by the user to set the desired inverter (on battery) output voltage. The DIP Switch must be set to the desired output voltage and then the UPS must be turned OFF and restarted to reconfigure the microprocessor and save the changes. The setting for the 120VAC units may be 110VAC, 120VAC, or 127VAC. The 110/120VAC settings will adjust the inverter (on battery) output voltage only. The 127VAC setting will adjust the inverter (on battery) output voltage and the Buck set points.

Switch #1	Switch #2	Output Voltage (battery mode)
OFF	OFF	110VAC
OFF	ON	110VAC
ON	OFF	120VAC
ON	ON	127VAC
