Compaq 3000 Series manual Optimizing Battery Life By Matching the Utility Voltage

Configuration 4-7

4.To toggle the selected configuration parameter value, press the

TEST/ALARM RESET button (4). The UPS will acknowledge compliance with a short beep.

NOTE: For nominal voltage configuration parameters 1, 2, 3, and 10—selecting an ON value for any one parameter automatically sets the other three possibilities to OFF.

5.To scroll through the configuration parameters, press the ON button

(2). The UPS acknowledges confirmation with a short beep. Monitor the LED display (see Figure 4-2; LED 1 blinks to indicate that parameter 1 is selected, LED 2 blinks when parameter 2 is selected, and so on).

6.Repeat Steps 2 through 5 as required. Continue until all changes have been made.

Press the ON (2) and TEST/ALARM RESET buttons (4)

qsimultaneously, or

after parameter 15 is accessed, press the ON (2) button.

The UPS will acknowledge compliance with a short beep.

Optimizing Battery Life

by Matching the Utility Voltage

Optimize UPS battery life by using the configuration parameters to select the best nominal voltage range for the UPS installation.

When utility voltage is outside the selected operating range, the UPS supplies battery power to the load segments. Maximize the UPS battery life by configuring the UPS so that the utility voltage is normally within the selected operating range.
