5.6 Extended capabilities
Sections 5.6.1 through 5.6.4 briefly describe the UPS’s extended capabili-
ties—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 func-
tions.
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
■ General
The UPS reports its electronics serial number, version number, date of
manufacture, and date of last battery replacement.
■ Operating status
The UPS reports its current operating status including on-line, on-battery,
SmartBoost, overloaded output, low battery, shut down, and internal fault.
■ Test results
The UPS reports the results of the last battery test. You may also test the
operation of the UPS’s visual and audible indicators.
5.6.2 Monitoring
■ Run time
When on-battery, the UPS continuously monitors the remaining run time in
minutes. The UPS monitors available run time when operating on-line.
■ Line voltage and frequency
The UPS continuously monitors the rms line voltage and line frequency.
Transients lasting less than 0.5 seconds are not reported. This information
may be logged using UPS monitoring software, plotted using a spreadsheet
application, and used to track power quality over extended periods.
■ Minimum and maximum line voltage
The UPS records the minimum and maximum line voltage to provide a
snapshot of power quality over a user-specified interval. Transients lasting
less than 0.5 seconds are not recorded.
