4.1 Preparation for Start-up
To ensure proper operation of the UPS, please confirm the following before use:
1. Correct installation of input and output wiring connections. (See section 2.1.3 or 2.1.4)
2. Please verify the UPS is setup for the correct voltage. The label on the rear of the unit will
indicate the factory input voltage setting. If you need to change the input voltage setting
please reference section 2.1.3 or 2.1.4.
3. Input voltage matches the configuration selected in #2 above.
4. The battery circuit breaker on the rear of the UPS is in the “OFF” position.
5. Confirm that computers, instrumentation or other connected loads are turned off
4.2 Routine UPS Startup Sequence
After confirming all the above, you are ready to start the UPS.
1. Turn the main input circuit breaker on the back of the UPS to the ON position. (See table
2-2).
2. Turn the battery circuit breaker to the ON position. (See table 2-2).
3. The line indicator light will turn on when AC is applied. After a short delay the INV light will
turn on if the AC input is within specification. The UPS is now operating normally and is
capable of supplying uninterruptible power. (See figure 2-1).
4. If any other conditions is displayed reference the trouble section of the manual ( Section 4.5
and 4.6).
5. Start the connected loads in sequence with highest power loads being started first and lower
power loads being started last.
4.3 Routine UPS Shutdown
1. Press the NORMAL/BYPASS button on the UPS panel to stop the UPS inverter. After
stopping the inverter, the UPS will be in bypass mode (See figure 2-1).
2. Turn off the main circuit breaker (See table 2-2).
3. Turn off the battery circuit breaker (See table 2-2).
4. To once again start the UPS, follow the instructions for routine start-up as already
discussed.
4.4 Important Battery Issues
If the UPS has been disconnected for a long period, it should be charged for at least four hours
before operation can resume. While it is possible to use the UPS during this charging period, it
is important to keep in mind that if a power outage occurs, battery runtime may be quite short.
Do not connect loads with high, non-linear current demands (such as
laser printers) to the UPS. Do not connect loads with AC motors (such
as vacuum cleaners) to the UPS.
