The UPS menu for a Symmetra Power Array also has the diagnostics and status options which are described in Module Status Option (Symmetra Power Array) on page 47.

Detailed UPS status In the Web interface, UPS status information is displayed at the top of the page that appears when the UPS menu’s Status option is selected. This UPS status includes information about what caused the most recent transfer to battery power at the UPS, as well as the internal temperature of the UPS.

Note: The detailed UPS status also appears on the Web interface’s “Control” and “Diagnostics” Web pages.

In the Control Console, the following information is displayed above the

UPS menu options:

• Reason for the last transfer to battery

• UPS internal temperature

• The voltage values described in Input voltage on page 36, Output voltage on page 37, and Battery on page 39.

The options Detailed Status (Smart-UPS or Matrix-UPS) and Detailed UPS Information (Symmetra Power Array or Silcon DP300E) provide access to the expanded UPS operational status and other status information. In addition, the Control Console’s UPS menu for a Symmetra Power Array has a Faults & Alarms option which describes any faults or alarms reported as part of the UPS status.

Note: A Silcon DP300E series UPS reports a non-specific fault for about 50 different conditions, including transfer to Bypass mode. When a specific fault is reported, access the UPS Keyboard at the Silcon DP300E series UPS for details.
