Operating the Device
17 Chloride Linear Plus Series Rack-mount UPS User Instruction Manual
The situation can better be analyzed by using the UPS load LEDs, which indicate the remaining autonomy
for a constant load. The following table shows the approximate autonomies in case of a fully charged
battery at the beginning of the mains failure.
The current battery capacity can be read from the LED chain BATTERY (see table below).
The most reliable method, however, is the use of either MopUPS
®
Professional UPS software or a
ManageUPS
®
network adapter. With these tools, the projected remaining battery capacity is indicated
both before and during a mains failures. Furthermore, shutdown procedures can be automated. Depending
on the application program, operating system and computer hardware, it can be ensured that in the event
of a mains failure the application programs are automatically closed, the subscribers logged in at the
server are logged out, data is stored, and the operating systems are shut down. For further information
please refer to our publication about the Chloride connectivity solutions.
Once the mains voltage returns, the UPS will restart in the preset mode. Depending on the installed
software, the computer’s status before the mains failure can be re-established.
In the event of overload or internal failure, the load is transferred to the mains via an automatic bypass,
without interruption. As soon as normal conditions are re-established, the unit switches automatically to
the inverter.
Operating modes Linear Plus Rack-mount
The UPS has three different operating modes when it is switched on.
Normal operation (mains supply present)
