Installation / startup
You do not need to power down the UPS in order to install the RS232/ASCII communication card. This card is directly connected to the back of the rack reserved for the transverse communication cards. It can be inserted and withdrawn without any problem.
When it has assumed its operating position, a "reset" push button and a green LED are available to the operator who can then press the "reset" button to restart the RS232/ASCII card.
When the RS232/ASCII card is placed in the back of the UPS rack or after a card reset:
◗the green LED flashes regularly every second during its startup phase;
◗then, during its initialisation phase, it starts flashing faster and more irregularly;
◗finally, in normal operation, it flashes whenever a measurement or status is modified in the UPS. If no changes take place in the process, the RS232/ASCII card remains on standby and flashes regularly every 3 seconds.
When the card is connected to a customer application, the LED flashes at the same pace as data exchange.
