88 PCS100 UPS-I User Manual
If the input RMS voltage raises above the value of this parameter the PCS100 UPS-I will
transfer to backup storage. Response time is about one half cycle i.e. 10 ms for a 50 Hz
supply or 6.2 ms for 60 Hz
Set to the highest supply variation that the load can withstand. If adjusted too fine the
PCS100 UPS-I will switch to the energy storage unnecessarily and there will be less storage
available during critical surges.
Specifies the acceptable frequency limits for the utility supply
% (base = Parameter 122 Utility Frequency).
Frequency detection typically is only used on generator supplies where the frequency can
vary widely. The default threshold setting is such that the detection will not be triggered
when connected to a grid.
Displays the present level of instantaneous voltage
% (base = Parameter 121 Utility Voltage (instantaneous))
Updates when entering the menu.
Sets the maximum instantaneous voltage error threshold beyond which the PCS100 UPS-I
will switch the load from the utility to the energy storage (fast response)
% (base = Parameter 121 Utility Voltage (instantaneous))
This is an instantaneous voltage error detection designed to detect sub cyclic (or
transient) errors in the supply voltage. It provides a more rapid response but more coarse
detection than the RMS detection. The response time is about 1.1 ms.

20% is an average setting. 30% may be required in the presence of notching or other high
order harmonics. Refer to document 2UCD120000E014.
