Note: If all of the option switches are set to the on position, the option switches are disabled. However, the functions controlled by the option switches are still available using UPS monitoring software (see Sec. 5.6.4).
5.0 Operation 5.5.2 Option Switch 2 Option Switch 2 functions differently for different versions of the UPS. ■ 100 Vac version No function; not used. ■ 120 Vac version The UPS’s factory-set input voltage limits for on-line and SmartBoost operation are centered on the nominal input voltage of 120 Vac (see also Sec. 9.1). When Option Switch 2 is set to the on ( I ) position, the upper and lower transfer voltages are lowered by 4% and centered on a nominal input of 115 Vac.
5.0 Operation 5.6 Extended capabilities Sections 5.6.1 through 5.6.4 briefly describe the UPS’s extended capabilities—advanced functions accessed using a computer running optional PowerDoctor or PowerChute plus UPS monitoring software. Refer to the monitoring software documentation for more information on these functions. Note: The extended capabilities of the UPS and operation of UPS monitoring software may be subject to change without notice. 5.6.
5.0 Operation ■ Output power The UPS continuously monitors the power consumed by the load. The value given is a percentage of the full load rating of the UPS. This information may be logged using UPS monitoring software, plotted using a spreadsheet application, and used to track load usage over extended periods.
5.0 Operation 5.6.4 Operation customizing You may configure many UPS operations for specific applications. To use the customizing features of the UPS, you must set all option switches to the on ( I ) position. The functions ordinarily controlled by the switches are duplicated in the UPS monitoring software. Once any of the option switches are returned to the off ( O ) position, functionality of the option switches is restored.
5.0 Operation ■ Audible alarm operation The UPS’s audible alarm beeps four times every 30 seconds during onbattery operation. The alarm beeps continuously when low-battery conditions are reached. This is the default operation. You may configure the audible alarm operation such that response to utility failure is delayed by 30 seconds, silenced until low-battery conditions are reached, or muted during both on-battery and low-battery conditions.
6.0 UPS Monitoring 6.1 Overview A UPS system alone provides excellent protection from brief power problems. During an extended power outage, an unattended computer system will eventually shut down because of battery capacity exhaustion. To prevent data corruption when the UPS shuts down, the UPS must inform the computer of impending shut down so the computer can take appropriate file-saving measures. This important function is called “UPS monitoring.
6.0 UPS Monitoring 6.4 Computer interface port The computer interface port is diagramed below. Those with technical abilities wishing to use this port in a special application should be aware of the following limitations and capabilities of the interface. ■ Outputs at Pins 3, 5, and 6 are open-collector outputs which must be pulled up to a common referenced supply no greater than +40 Vdc. The transistors are capable of a maximum noninductive load of 25 mAdc. Use only Pin 4 as the common.
