Configure UPS parameters

This configuration affects the accuracy of the predicted runtime calculations the UPS performs while running on battery power.

Smart-UPS XL models must be programed to recognize the number of external battery packs connected to the UPS.

There are five options available for configuring the UPS to recognize the number of external battery packs

1.PowerChute® Business Edition: Refer to the instructions included with the software

2.Network Management Card (NMC) Web interface: Refer to the instructions included with NMC

3.Network Management Card (NMC) terminal mode: Refer to the instructions below

4.UPS terminal mode

5.Download the Smart-UPS Battery pack utility program from the APC Web site, ftp://ftp.apcc.com/apc/public/hardware/smartups/xbattpack/

Configure UPS connection settings using NMC terminal mode

Connect the serial cable to the serial port on the back of the UPS. If using USB communication to the UPS, disconnect the USB cable prior to connecting the serial cable.

1.Open a terminal program, such as HyperTerminal®.

From the Desktop, go to: Start, Programs, Accessories, Communication, HyperTerminal

2.Follow the prompts to choose a name and select an icon. Disregard the message, "...must install a modem," if it is displayed, click Cancel.

3.Go to File, Properties. Select the COM port that is connected to your UPS. The port settings are:

bits per second - 9600

data - bits 8

parity - none

stop bit - 1

flow control - none

4.Click OK in each of two windows

5.Press ENTER to initiate the connection to the UPS.

Configure the number of external battery packs using NMC terminal mode

1.Once the blank terminal window is open:

2.Press ENTER to initiate terminal mode. Press ENTER multiple times, until the prompt User Name: is displayed. Follow the prompts. Type slowly, waiting until each character appears on the screen prior to typing the next character.

SUA3000, SUA2200 specifications

The APC SUA2200 and SUA3000 are well-regarded uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) from Schneider Electric, designed to provide reliable power backup and protection for critical electronic equipment. These models cater to a range of applications, from small business environments to larger enterprise setups, ensuring that devices remain operational during power outages or fluctuations.

Starting with the APC SUA2200, it boasts a capacity of 2200 VA / 1980 W, making it suitable for powering essential devices such as network equipment, servers, and workstations. One of its standout features is the Pure Sine Wave output, which ensures that sensitive electronics receive clean power, thus preventing potential damage or operational issues. Additionally, the SUA2200 comes equipped with Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) technology, which stabilizes voltage levels and protects connected equipment from surges and sags.

Moving to the APC SUA3000, this model offers even greater capacity, rated at 3000 VA / 2700 W, making it ideal for larger deployments where more power is needed. Similar to the SUA2200, it also features Pure Sine Wave output and AVR technology for enhanced protection. The SUA3000 is designed with a graphical LCD interface that provides real-time information on power status, battery condition, and load levels, allowing users to monitor their UPS system with ease.

Both models utilize high-frequency technology, which results in a smaller and more efficient form factor compared to traditional line frequency UPS systems. They also feature multiple surge-protected outlets, enabling users to connect various devices simultaneously. The SmartSlot feature allows for additional management options with the installation of network management cards, enabling remote monitoring and management capabilities.

The battery management system incorporated into both models extends battery life and ensures efficient charging cycles. Users can expect longer runtimes and the ability to replace batteries easily when needed. Compatibility with APC's PowerChute software also enhances performance by providing advanced management capabilities and system monitoring.

In summary, the APC SUA2200 and SUA3000 serve as robust solutions for organizations seeking reliable power protection. Their combination of high capacity, advanced technologies like Pure Sine Wave output and AVR, along with user-friendly interfaces, make them ideal choices for safeguarding critical electronic equipment against power disruptions. These UPS systems not only ensure uninterrupted power supply but also foster longevity and operational efficiency in power management.
