6. Operation of device and service
Due to the comprehensive protective functions which the device performs re-
garding the load(s), the UPS operates nearly completely automatically. This re-
duces the operation of the device to a few steps.
The operating personnel should always inform affected employees (keyword:
consumer network) about any scheduled tasks concerning the UPS.
In general, keep the chapters 8 Messages and error codes and 9 Trou-
bleshooting in the operating manual available to facilitate the immediate inter-
pretation of the operation display and possibly occurring errors.
6.1 Service and operating modes of the UPS
As a rule, the switching on or starting up and shutting down of the system is per-
formed by the operating personnel.
The operator of the UPS system must always adhere to the instructions in this
operating manual. Only the operator can perform the following actions and must
always exercise particular care when:
– Switching the UPS on and off;
– Reading the display messages and interpreting the acoustic warning
signals;
– Switching from the standard operating mode to the autonomous
mode and vice versa.
Furthermore, a data exchange with the UPS can occur via the communication
port which is, nevertheless, not crucial for the general operation of the device.
However, particular diligence must prevail here as well because, for example,
the shutting down of the UPS can be triggered by the software.
