The front panel is located behind the glass window on the front door. It displays the real time
information, UPS Status, battery system and provides the user interface for controlling and
setting the UPS operating parameters. This panel is user friendly. Each part of the panel is
explained below:
A: LCD display- Real time status, data and historical events are displayed on the LCD. The
UPS parameters, real time clock, inverter, and buzzer can also be set through
this LCD. The LCD is back lit by LED’s for a sharper display, but in order to
lengthen the LED’s life time, the LED will automatically shut off 3 minutes
after a key has been pressed, and will light up again when one of the
up/down/enter keys are pushed.
B: Warning LED’s-When an abnormal condition occurs, these LED’s will illuminate allowing
the user to identify the cause of the fault. This will also allow the service
personnel the ability to initially troubleshoot the system. These LED’s are
described below:
• RECT AC FAIL – supply to the rectifier is outside of the operating window.
This is related to the supply voltage out of range, the phase rotation is
incorrect or the rectifier has been shutdown (refer to C: Status LED’s).
• RESERVE FAIL – supply to the reserve is outside of the operating window.
This is related to the supply voltage out of range or frequency out of range
(refer to C: Status LED’s).
• FUSE/TEMP – inverter has shutdown due to inverter fuse open or heat sink
temperature above operating parameters.
• OVERLOAD – an overload condition has occurred on the output.
• HIGH DC – the DC voltage has exceeded maximum operating level (over
430VDC). The bus voltage is limited to this voltage.
• BAT LOW – this LED will be lit as long as the DC voltage is lower than
320VDC.
• BAT LOW STOP – the LED will be lit as long as the DC voltage is lower
than 295VDC. The inverter will not activate until the DC voltage is above
this level.
• FAULT – the inverter has shutdown because an abnormal condition has
occurred. Possible conditions include overload, short circuit, high DC
shutdown, fuse/over temperature, bypass breaker on or emergency stop (refer
to C: Status LED’s).
C: Status LED’s- 24 LED’s represent the real-time information about the status of the UPS
system. These LED’s will aid in diagnosing and trouble shooting abnormal
conditions. The 24 LED’s represent the following:
• INVERTER ON – inverter is running.
• INVERTER SS – inverter static switch is active.
