This manual provides safety, installation, and operating instructions that will help you get the fullest performance and service life that the UPS has to offer. It includes important instructions for the safe use of this UPS, and for obtaining factory service if necessary. Future service or storage issues may arise and require reference to this manual. [. . . ] If the overload occurs during on-battery operation, the alarm sounds until the UPS Enable switch on the rear panel is turned off. 18 5. 0 Operation 5. 5 Option switches The UPS has a set of four DIP switches on the rear panel which allow you to configure several options (see Secs. 5. 5. 1­5. 5. 4). 0 (off) 4 3 2 1 O"4p© FamV ^p§m I (on) Note: You can set option switches at any time, and the effect is immediate. Note: If all of the option switches are set to the on position, the option switches are disabled. However, the functions controlled by the option switches are still available using UPS monitoring software (see Sec. 5. 6. 4). 5. 5. 1 Option Switch 1 The UPS contains utility fault detection circuitry that is extremely sensitive to line voltage distortions including spikes, notches, sudden dips, and swells. The UPS is factory-set to react to such line voltage distortions by immediately transferring the load to on-battery operation, affording maximum protection for all load types. Where power quality is poor because of local cyclic heavy load-switching, or the use of inexpensive fuel generators, the UPS may frequently transfer to on-battery. If the UPS is powering loads that operate normally under such conditions, battery capacity may be spent unnecessarily. Setting Option Switch 1 to the on ( I ) position desensitizes the UPS to rapid low-amplitude line-voltage fluctuations, and increases the UPS's upper transfer voltage by 3%, for a total of 13% above the nominal input voltage. This helps maintain maximum battery capacity for major utility failures. 19 5. 0 Operation 5. 5. 2 Option Switch 2 Option Switch 2 functions differently for different versions of the UPS. s 120 Vac version The UPS's factory-set input voltage limits for on-line and SmartBoost operation are centered on the nominal input voltage of 120 Vac (see also Sec. When Option Switch 2 is set to the on ( I ) position, the upper and lower transfer voltages are lowered by 4% and centered on a nominal input of 115 Vac. s 220/230/240 Vac version The UPS's factory-set on-battery output voltage and input voltage limits for on-line and SmartBoost operation are designed for use in regions where the nominal line voltage is 220 to 230 Vac. When Option Switch 2 is set to the on ( I ) position, the upper and lower transfer voltages are raised by 4% and centered on a nominal input of 240 Vac. In addition, the on-battery output voltage is increased to 240 Vac. 5. 5. 3 Option Switch 3 When Option Switch 3 is set to the on ( I ) position, the UPS's audible alarm is disabled for the first 30 seconds of on-battery operation. This function is useful where brief power interruptions are frequent and cause the alarm to become annoying. 5. 5. 4 Option Switch 4 When Option Switch 4 is set to the on ( I ) position, the UPS's low-battery alarm interval is extended from 2 minutes (factory setting) to 5 minutes. This function is useful if the UPS is protecting a computer system that requires more than 2 minutes warning to perform a graceful shutdown. 20 5. 0 Operation 5. 6 Extended capabilities Sections 5. 6. 1 through 5. 6. 4 briefly describe the UPS's extended capabilities--advanced functions accessed using a computer running optional PowerDoctor or PowerChute plus UPS monitoring software. Refer to the monitoring software documentation for more information on these functions. Note: The extended capabilities of the UPS and operation of UPS monitoring software may be subject to change without notice. 5. 6. 1 Status reporting s General The UPS reports its electronics serial number, version number, date of manufacture, and date of last battery replacement. s Operating status The UPS reports its current operating status including on-line, on-battery, SmartBoost, overloaded output, low battery, shut down, and internal fault. You may also test the operation of the UPS's visual and audible indicators. 5. 6. 2 Monitoring s Run time When on-battery, the UPS continuously monitors the remaining run time in minutes. s Line voltage and frequency The UPS continuously monitors the rms line voltage and line frequency.
