g GE Digital Energy 1 - Introduction 1.1 Introduction The General Electric (GE) Digital Energy NetPro 19” UPS, a truly on-line uninterruptible power supply, protects your equipment from all forms of power interference, including complete power failures. 1.2 Safety Rules x CAUTION: RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. The UPS contains batteries. The appliance outlets may be electrically live, even when the UPS is disconnected from the mains. x The UPS contains potentially hazardous voltages.
g 2.2 GE Digital Energy Installation Procedure A B 5 4 1 6 2 3 fig. 1 1. Remove the transport screws (A, fig. 1) and store them in the free holes (B, fig.1). Mount the NetPro 19” UPS in the 19” rack. The module must be supported by mounting rails, do not mount it by using the front brackets only. The front brackets allow mounting of handles (not included). 2. Make sure that the air vents in the side panels of the module are not blocked by the mounting rails or the side panels of the 19” rack. 3.
g GE Digital Energy 3 - Operation Please refer to figure 6. 3.1 Start-up 3.1.1 1 2 Start-up, mains available Press keypad 'I' (14, fig. 6) briefly; LED ‘on’ (already blinking) will illuminate continuously now. The equipment connected to the UPS can now be switched on. 3.1.2 1 Start-up, mains not available If the mains input is absent (power cord not connected, or mains failure): Press keypad 'I' until the buzzer sounds. The LEDs 'on' and 'on battery' (13, fig. 6) will illuminate.

g GE Digital Energy 3.3.1 Charger on The batteries are charging, see 2.2 step 7. 3.3.2 On line: normal operation See 3.2.1. 3.3.3 On battery The UPS uses the energy stored in the batteries: see chapter 7 ‘Batteries - runtime’. The UPS will shutdown x after the batteries have been discharged (automatic restart), or x if keypad 'O' is pressed (restart via front panel required) or x if a 'UPS shutdown' command is given by the computer (restart via front panel required). Runtime indication (fig.
g GE Digital Energy 3.3.8 High temperature The LED Indication is the same as during overload (see 3.3.7), but if keypad 'I' is momentarily pressed to obtain a load indication the red LED will go out. Overtemperature can be caused by: x extreme environmental temperature, x lack of proper ventilation, x overload situation. Take appropriate measures; if the temperature is allowed to rise further the UPS will switch to bypass operation (if allowed).
g 3.5 GE Digital Energy Battery Management Maximum battery life and reliability are obtained by the following features: x Quick battery test The quick battery test checks whether the batteries and their wiring are healthy. If a quick battery test shows that the batteries are close to being worn out, a 'replace battery' alarm will be generated (see 3.3.9). The batteries must be replaced as soon as possible (see 6.2).
g GE Digital Energy 4 - Communication 4.1 RS232 Port (fig. 8) The RS 232 Port is a plug-in interface port (9-pin, Sub-D, male) which enables advanced communication between the UPS and the computer (UPS software required). The interface port is operative as soon as the mains power cord is plugged into a live wall outlet, even if the UPS is switched off. We strongly recommend to use only original GE Digital Energy software products in combination with the interface port.
g GE Digital Energy 5 - Optional Features Apart from the options described in 4.2 and 4.3 the following options are possible: 5.1 Extended Runtime (NetPro 19” 1000) Extended runtime can be obtained by connecting a separate battery extension pack to the UPS. In this case the UPS must be informed about the new total battery capacity to allow a reliable recalculation of the available runtime (please contact your dealer).
g GE Digital Energy Battery replacement procedure Refer to the label on the battery drawer. 1. Be sure that the transport screws (A, fig. 1) have been removed. 2. Remove the front panel of the battery compartment. Use a screw driver or pen as a lever. 3. Remove the two screws that hold the battery drawer. 4. Disconnect the DC connectors. Use a screwdriver as a lever. 5. Remove battery drawer. Be careful, heavy weight! 6. Remove clamp (two screws) and replace the batteries. 7.
g GE Digital Energy 7 - Troubleshooting Whenever a malfunction occurs, first check external factors (e.g connections, temperature, humidity or load) to determine whether the problem is caused by the unit itself or by its environment. Subsequently check the thermal circuit breaker: it may be tripped. If so: reset it (see 4, fig.1) and be sure that the UPS is not overloaded. The following chart is a simple troubleshooting checklist only.
