Liebert Universal Monitor user manual Manual Output Ctrl

System and Control Options

9.11Manual Output Ctrl

The Manual Output Ctrl feature allows you to manually change the state of any digital output to ON or OFF, overriding automatic control by the Universal Monitor (the default setting for all outputs). This menu also allows you to release the manual override, returning any output to automatic control.

There are two ways to override automatic control of outputs:

•Use the Manual Output Ctrl menu, as described in this section, to turn any output ON or OFF.

•Use the switch on the Universal Monitor board (see 1.7 - Controller Board Overview) to force all eight outputs ON at the same time. (Note: This has no effect on the optional Expansion Board outputs.)

After an output is forced manually ON or OFF through the Manual Output Ctrl menu, it remains in that state until returned to automatic control through this menu.

Table 34 summarizes the four types of control, including the abbreviated message that appears on the LCD and in log reports.
