Starting and Stopping the UPS

When the inverter reaches full voltage, it turns on and supplies power to the critical load. It takes less than one minute for the UPS to achieve Normal mode.

If a bypass source is available when you turn the START switch on, the critical load is immediately supplied by the bypass source in Bypass mode until the inverter turns on and the UPS transfers to Normal mode. The status indicators on the Monitor Panel indicate when the UPS is in Bypass mode or Normal mode as appropriate.
