x Alarms

This alarm is triggered by one of the

 

following events:

Inverter Startup

 

Failure

The UPS detects that at least one

 

electronics module failed to

 

complete its startup sequence as

 

expected and was most likely shut

 

down. In this situation, the alarm is

 

more of a general status indicator.

 

It should be accompanied by

 

another alarm, indicating the

 

reason for the modules failure to

 

start.

 

An electronics module has briefly

 

(for approximately one-quarter of a

 

second) disconnected from the

 

system and is attempting to restart.

 

In this situation, no other alarms

 

associated with this failure will

 

occur, with the exception of a

 

possible Internal Communications

 

Failure alarm.

The electronics module may not be fully seated. Remove the bezels and ensure that each of the electronics modules is fully inserted into the chassis.

Inverter

Uncalibrated

At least one electronics module has not been calibrated together as a set, which is required for efficient load-sharing operations.

An autocalibration is required, and the UPS will automatically schedule the autocalibration process on detection of this condition.
