For applications where the UPS is used as a remote power source or where the UPS frequently transfers to on-battery operation due to poor service quality, the function of the audible alarm may be altered so that it will not become an annoyance.

λAll imed - A sequence of four beeps is sounded immediately upon transfer to on-battery operation. The UPS sounds the beep sequence every 30 seconds while operating on-battery. When low battery conditions are reached, the alarm changes to a beep once every second.

λ30s delay - The on-battery audible alarm is disabled for the first 30 seconds of on-battery operation.

λLow Batt - The audible alarm is disabled during on-battery operation until low battery conditions are reached.

λDisable - The audible alarm is disabled during on-battery operation and

low battery conditions.

Many computer networks that issue UPS shutdown commands are unable to do so as the last part of a shutdown routine. For these applications, the UPS provides a settable delay interval before shut down to allow the network to finish its shutdown routine.

λShut down delay function choices are 20, 180, 300, and 600 seconds.

A delay interval before energizing the output following return of normal utility voltage, or following a scheduled shut down, may be set by the user. This delay is useful in applications that require staggered power up of equipment connected at various sources.

λLoad power delay function choices are 0, 60, 180, and 300 seconds.

This function has no meaning for the 208/240 Vac, 60 Hz version UPS. The display will always respond 208 V.

The UPS can be set to report the output voltage from either the nominal 208V or 240V output. This can be accomplished regardless of whether the input is configured for operation from 208V or 240V service. When an optional power distribution plate or Power Distribution Unit (PDU) is installed, the UPS should be set to report the correct output voltage. When the Auto function is chosen, the reported nominal output voltage is scaled according to the input tap selected (see section 4.5).

The UPS can be set do display all menu choices in either English, French, German, or Spanish.

MatrixTM UPS specifications

American Power Conversion (APC), a leader in power management solutions, has developed the MatrixTM Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system to meet the critical power needs of data center infrastructure. The MatrixTM UPS is designed for scalability, reliability, and efficiency, making it an ideal choice for organizations requiring robust backup power systems.

One of the main features of the MatrixTM UPS is its modular design, which allows for easy configuration and scalability. Organizations can start with a basic setup and expand capacity as needed, ensuring optimal utilization of resources. The system is available in various configurations, enabling customization according to specific power and environmental requirements. This modularity also facilitates easy maintenance and upgrades without significant downtime.

The MatrixTM UPS utilizes advanced technologies, such as dual conversion and intelligent battery management. The dual conversion technology ensures that power is provided in a clean and consistent manner, free from fluctuations and disturbances. Additionally, the system features an integrated battery management system that optimizes battery performance, extends lifespan, and enhances overall efficiency.

One of the standout characteristics of the MatrixTM UPS is its energy efficiency. With a high-efficiency rating, this UPS minimizes energy consumption during operation, which significantly reduces operational costs and contributes to a lower carbon footprint. This is particularly beneficial for businesses looking to adhere to sustainability goals while maintaining reliable power supply.

Another key feature is the intuitive user interface that simplifies monitoring and control. Users can easily access real-time information on power status, battery health, and operational efficiency through a graphical LCD. Remote management capabilities enable administrators to monitor the system from any location, providing added flexibility and ensuring quick response times in case of power issues.

The MatrixTM UPS also prioritizes redundancy, with features such as N+1 architecture, ensuring that backup power is reliable even in the event of component failure. This level of redundancy is crucial for mission-critical applications where power interruptions can lead to significant operational disruptions.

In summary, the American Power Conversion MatrixTM UPS stands out with its modular design, advanced technology, high energy efficiency, and user-friendly interface. These characteristics make it a reliable solution for businesses looking to ensure continuity of operations in an increasingly power-dependent environment. With its robust capabilities, the MatrixTM UPS positions itself as a cornerstone for effective power management in data centers and beyond.
