Basic Operation continued ON Battery Events This feature allows the user to view the number of times the UPS has experienced an ON Battery Event. To reset the counter to "0," press and hold the button. Tap the button repeatedly to advance to the ON Battery Events display, as shown above. Note: The value displayed is a random value used for example reference. AVR Events This feature allows the user to view the number of times the UPS has experienced an Automatic Voltage Regulation Event. To reset the counter to "0," press and hold the button. Tap the button repeatedly to advance to the AVR display, as shown above. Note: The value displayed is a random value used for example reference. Power Sensitivity This setting is normally set to 100%, which enables the UPS to protect against waveform distortions in its AC input. When such distortion occurs, the UPS will normally switch to providing pure sine wave power from its battery reserves for as long as the distortion is present. In some areas with poor utility power or where the UPS's input power comes from a backup generator, frequent brownouts and/or chronic waveform distortion could cause the UPS to switch to battery too often, draining its battery reserves. You may be able to reduce how often your UPS switches to battery due to waveform distortion or brownouts by experimenting with different settings. As the setting is reduced, the UPS becomes more tolerant of variations in its input power's AC waveform. Note: When experimenting with different settings, operate connected equipment in a safe test mode so that the effect on the equipment of any waveform distortions in the UPS's output can be evaluated without disrupting critical operations. The experiment should last long enough to assure that all expected line conditions are encountered. 14 201205048 93-3149.indb 14 6/19/2012 11:33:41 AM

Power Sensitivity
This setting is normally set to 100%, which enables the UPS to protect against waveform distortions
in its AC input. When such distortion occurs, the UPS will normally switch to providing pure sine wave
power from its battery reserves for as long as the distortion is present. In some areas with poor utility
power or where the UPS’s input power comes from a backup generator, frequent brownouts and/or
chronic waveform distortion could cause the UPS to switch to battery too often, draining its battery
reserves. You may be able to reduce how often your UPS switches to battery due to waveform
distortion or brownouts by experimenting with different settings. As the setting is reduced, the UPS
becomes more tolerant of variations in its input power’s AC waveform.
Note:
When experimenting with different settings, operate connected equipment in a safe test mode so that the
effect on the equipment of any waveform distortions in the UPS’s output can be evaluated without disrupting critical
operations. The experiment should last long enough to assure that all expected line conditions are encountered.
