Operation 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/MUTE switch until a beep is heard, then release. The UPS can be configured via the front panel LCD interface for no test, weekly or monthly self-test (factory default configuration: monthly). 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. If a failure mode or low battery condition is encountered, UPS will report "BATTERY FAULT" alarm message and beep briefly once every two seconds. If the battery is okay, the display will return to the previous menu. BATTERY MODE LEDs: INPUT, BATTERY, AC/DC, OUTPUT LEDs on. BATTERY MODE LCD SCREEN: BATTERY TEST and UPS load information BATTERY TEST MODE LCD VIEWING OPTIONS: None-for the duration of the battery test the display will report output loading information. FREQ (FREQUENCY) CONVERTER MODE: Your UPS is compatible with 100-127V nominal input voltage at either 50 or 60Hz. The UPS will automatically self-configure for 50Hz or 60Hz operation based on utility power conditions at start-up and regulate output power during battery mode operation within ±0.05Hz of the selected frequency. The UPS system also has an advanced setting that allows continuous frequency conversion from 50Hz to 60Hz or from 60Hz to 50Hz while the UPS is running in on-line, double conversion mode. The advanced frequency conversion setting is accessible through the LCD, the included PowerAlert software or the optional SNMPWEBCARD internal accessory card. When continuous frequency conversion is enabled, the maximum output capacity of the UPS system is derated by 30%. To set the UPS for frequency conversion, you'll need to adjust settings on two separate LCD configuration screens: OUTPUT FREQUENCY (select 50 or 60Hz output as desired) and FREQ CONVERTER (select enable). See UPS Setup Order of Operations operation section for instructions on setting these two options. When the UPS is running in FREQ CONVERTER mode and actively converting output frequency from 60 to 50Hz (or 50 to 60Hz), the INPUT LED will blink to indicate that both AUTOMATIC BYPASS and MANUAL BYPASS operations are not available (since bypass would allow the wrong frequency to pass through to connected equipment). FREQUENCY CONVERTER MODE LEDs: INPUT (blinking), AC/DC, FREQ CONVERTER MODE LCD SCREEN: "FREQ CONVERTER" DC/AC and OUTPUT LEDs on. and UPS load information FREQ CONVERTER MODE LCD VIEWING OPTIONS: When first entering FREQUENCY CONVERTER MODE, the LCD screen will display load information in percentage and kilowatt units. To display additional information screens, tap the SCROLL DOWN ("v") button repeatedly. Additional screens include: Kilowatt hour usage, Kilowatt capacity remaining, Runtime-remaining in minutes, Battery voltage and charge percentage, Output voltage and frequency, Input voltage and frequency, Load Power Factor and Load percentage plus kVA capacity. 13 13-07-015-9332C3.indb 13 7/26/2013 11:16:18 AM
