American Power Conversion 2200 manual Operation, Switch On, Switch Off, Self-test

5.Operation

5.1Switch On

With the unit plugged in, press the on/test (upper) button to supply power to the loads. The loads are immediately powered while the unit beeps and performs a self-test. See section 5.3.

5.2 Switch Off

To switch off the unit’s output power, press the off (lower) button. It may be convenient to use the on and off buttons of the unit as a master on/off switch for the protected equipment.

Note: The unit is on (the internal processor is operating) whenever it is plugged in and utility voltage is present. Even when switched off the unit maintains the battery charge and will respond to com- mands received through the computer interface port and the accessory slot.

5.3 Self-test

Use the self-test to verify both the operation of the unit and the condition of the battery. With the unit plugged in to normal utility power, activate the self-test by pressing the on/test button until the unit beeps and the on-line LED flashes.

Note: By default the unit performs a self-test at power up and once every two weeks.
