Operation

ECONOMY MODE:

Economy mode refers to an optional UPS configuration for reduced power consumption and heat output. A UPS in economy mode reduces power consumption by suspending the double conversion [AC-to-DC / DC-to-AC] process whenever input power is already of high enough quality to pass through to connected equipment unchanged. The UPS will automatically switch back to on-line mode if input power quality deteriorates to ensure that connected equipment receives high quality power under all conditions.

LCD ELEMENTS CONFIRMING ECONOMY MODE OPERATION

>ECO ICON: ON (CONFIRMS ECO MODE OPERATION)

>INPUT ICON: ON SOLID (input power is present, bypass is available)

>INPUT ICON: FLASHING (input power is present, bypass is not available)

>BYPASS ICON: ON SOLID (confirms UPS is running in high- efficiency mode)

ECONOMY MODE LCD VIEWING OPTIONS:

When the UPS is configured for and energized into ECONOMY MODE, the LCD screen will continue reporting the last viewed informational screen (INPUT VOLTAGE shown). To display additional information screens, tap the SETUP button repeatedly. The 10 available information screens are (1) INPUT VOLTAGE, (2) INPUT FREQUENCY,

(3)OUTPUT VOLTAGE, (4) OUTPUT FREQUENCY, (5) LOAD PERCENTAGE,

(6)LOAD KVA, (7) LOAD KW, (8) BATTERY CHARGE PERCENT, (9) BATTERY VOLTAGE, (10) ESTIMATED RUNTIME.

BATTERY TEST MODE:

To verify battery backup operation of your UPS, you can periodically perform a manual or programmed self-test of the UPS system. To manually initiate a self-test while the UPS is operating in On-Line or Economy mode, press the ON button switch until a beep is heard, then release. Self-test can also be initiated via PowerAlert software at user determined intervals (see PowerAlert software documentation for more information). When a self-test is run, the UPS will cycle to battery power for approximately 10 seconds and automatically switch back to AC mode.

Once complete, the UPS will report the self-test results on the LCD screen for about 10 seconds.

SELF-TEST MODE LCD VIEWING OPTIONS:

When a SELF-TEST is initiated, the UPS will flash the words “TEST”

&“BATT” and display the DC battery voltage for about 10 seconds.

No other informational screens are viewable until after the self-test is complete and results are reported.

PASSED SELF-TEST

If the UPS and battery system pass the self test, the screen will report “PAS” in the three character display and return to normal online / economy operation with the last viewed informational screen.

PASS NOTIFICATION (10 SEC)

RETURN TO ONLINE / ECONOMY MODE (LAST VIEWED SCREEN)

FAILED SELF-TEST

If the UPS does not pass the selftest, the screen will report “BAD” in the three character display and continue reporting the last viewed informational screen.

FAIL NOTIFICATION (10 SEC)

RETURN TO ONLINE / ECONOMY MODE (LAST VIEWED SCREEN)

>THE “!” REMAINS LIGHTED

>THE “BATTERY WITH X THROUGH IT” REMAINS LIGHTED

>THE BATTERY CHARGE ICON REPORTS “ZERO BARS”
