Shutdown Delay Time
This interval is defined as a value between 0 and 45 seconds, by which the
shutdown of Windows will be delayed. The intervening period is used to
dispatch a Request To Close message to all active windows. The user can
avail himself of this time for the purpose of saving his data. Upon expiry of the
Delay Time, all application programs will be terminated without prior security
query!
When setting the Delay Time, observe that there must be sufficient time to
effect a safe shutdown of the operating system (closing and backing up Win-
dows system files), i.e., between the end of the Delay Time and the expiry of
the 60 seconds after the shutdown signal. If the interval is too short, the shut-
down process will be interrupted because the UPS disrupts the mains power.
This may cause loss of data in some circumstances.
CAUTION
Upon expiry of the Delay Time, the operating system is shut down
without prior security query. Unsecured data belonging to open ap-
plications will be lost.
Enable Startup Battery Test
When this check box is checked, the system performs a test of the battery
pack during each restart. Upon detection of an error, the red LED “UPS”
flashes and an error message is generated (”Accu Test failed! The Accu is
not installed or empty!”) and distributed throughout the system. The UPS
program continues to operate.
The battery test is automatically repeated after 12 hours:
D If no error is found, automatic test repetition in 12-hour intervals ensues.
D Upon detection of an error, the red LED “UPS” flashes and an error mess-
age is generated and distributed throughout the system, and no further
battery test is performed.
Error messages from the battery test are also stored in the Windows NT Ap-
plication Event Log.
Enable Temp Control
When this checkbox is checked, the ambient temperature is monitored on a
continuous basis. Excessive temperatures will produce the temperature
warning message “Board Temperature high! Check System!”.
The power monitoring function is retained even after a temperature warning.
Upon detection of an error, the red LED “Temp” flashes.
Temperature warning messages are also stored in the Windows NT Applica-
tion Event Log.
Enable Fan Control
When this checkbox is activated, the integrated housing fans are monitored
in the IPC300 with Pentium I (266 MHz) and the housing and processor fans
are monitored in the IPC300 with Pentium III (400 MHz). In the event of an
error, the red LED “Temp” flashes and the following message is generated
and distributed throughout the system: “FAN failure! Check System!”
