Operating Modes
Automatic Regulation Setup
Setup for Automatic Voltage Regulation parameters.
Outlet Bank 2 Setup
Adjusts the battery charge threshold in which Outlet Bank 2 is
shut off to conserve power for the critical loads connected to
Outlet Bank 1.
If set to OFF, Outlet Bank 2 will shut off immediately when the
unit goes into UPS Mode.
IR1 Control Setup
IR1 Control Setup is a two-step process in which the IR remote
control signal is sampled, and tested by outputting the learned
signal on the output jack.
IR Output Delay
IR Output Delay is the time delay before outputting the IR signals
on the IR output jacks after the unit goes into UPS mode.
IR Output Delay time starts at 0 sec, incremented in 5 sec inter-
vals, with a maximum value of 60 sec.
Setup Buzzer Mode
Change the UPS BUZZER MODE to set it to on or off.
UPS Test Mode
UPS Test Mode places the unit in UPS Mode temporarily to
verify that the UPS inverter can adequately supply the connected
load.
System Info
Displays the brand, model number and firmware revision
A connection to a UPS can benefit projector bulbs, server based
products, and units with volatile electronic memories found in
but not limited to Pro Audio, Broadcast and High-End Home
Theater equipment. The MB1000 takes this to the next level with
a number of features designed specifically for AC Power back up
applications.
Critical Load Function
One of the user programmable settings in the MB1000 software
is the Low Battery Non-Critical Load (NCL) Shutoff threshold.
This sets the battery capacity level at the point where the NCL
outlets are turned off and all remaining battery power is reserved
for equipment plugged into the 4 critical load outlets. This value
is stored internally by the UPS and is not dependent on having
the software running on a computer.
Patent-pending Learning IR Control
The learning IR function lets you program the UPS to send
standby or shut-down commands to components such as DLP
ceiling projectors. If the power fails, the projector’s lamps are
turned off while the UPS continues providing battery power to
the projector’s cooling fan. Proper shutdown is ensured and
expensive lamps are protected from damage.
Note: This function should only be used with discrete IR codes.
Programming an On/Off toggle command could result in the
equipment being turned ON during a power failure!
IR Power Failure Operation
The UPS can learn two IR commands. The learned commands
will be transmitted on both output jacks so you have the ability to
control 2 different pieces of equipment or use a 2-step macro for
one component.
1. After a power failure and the selected delay, the IR codes will
be sent to both outputs. The IR LED’s will flash once per second
during the delay time and will stop flashing after the IR code is
sent.
