Operation

Standby Mode

When the UPS is turned off and remains plugged into a power outlet, the UPS is in Standby mode. All indicators are off and power is not available to your equipment. The battery recharges when necessary.

NOTE For 200–240V models, the output receptacles may remain electrically live (up to 100–120V). Unplug the UPS to ensure power is not available to the output receptacles.

UPS Front Panel

The UPS front panel indicates the UPS status and also identifies potential power problems. Figure 13 shows the UPS front panel indicators and controls.

If the alarm beeps or a UPS alarm indicator stays on, see Table 8 on page 48 to identify and correct the problem.

Initiating the Self-Test

NOTE The batteries must be fully charged and the UPS must not be in Battery mode to perform the self-test.

Press and hold the button for three seconds to initiate the self-test. If the UPS finds a problem, an LED indicates where the problem is. For more information, see “Troubleshooting” on page 47.
