THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY SUMMARY OF INDICATORS AND CONTROLS SYSTEM POWER SWITCH - The main control switch that engages utility power to the entire unit. By activating this switch it initializes normal operation. AC In - The utility input indicator that identifies status of the line voltage. If the line voltage is within the specified range, it will remain lit. If the AC input is out of range, this indicator will flash in 1 to 2 second intervals.
THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY INSTALLATION I f the unit is to be stored, it is recommended to refresh the internal battery at least once every 90 days. To do this, plug the system in, position the power On/Off switch to "ON" and allow the unit to idle for at least 24 hours. The GT unit is designed for installation in a protected environment.
THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY OPERATION O nce the system has been properly installed, it is ready to operate. The following procedures will explain how to start-up the system while plugged into rated electrical power and also how to start-up with no AC power available. Normal Operation on AC Start-Up: • Verify that the unit is plugged into properly rated electrical power. • Position the System Power Switch to the ON position.
THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY SIGNALS AND INTERFACING t the rear of the unit are two DB-9 subminiature, female connectors. These are provided for communications links to a computer or sophisticated monitoring device. SIGNAL provides open-collector outputs that typically signal Utility Interrupt and Low Battery conditions. A system shutdown feature is also available on this port. Applying a short between Pin 6 and Pin 7 will cause the system to shutdown in battery mode.
