Transferring the UPS between modes Transferring between modes includes: v Transferring from Normal to Bypass mode v Transferring from Bypass to Normal mode Transferring from Normal to Bypass Mode To transfer from Normal to Bypass mode, complete the following steps: 1.
Setting the power strategy The UPS has the following three settings for power strategy: v Normal. The UPS operates in Normal mode (powering the load from utility power). v High Efficiency. The UPS operates in High Efficiency mode (powering the load from the bypass source but ready to transfer to Normal mode as needed).
To set the power strategy, complete the following steps: 1. Make sure that the UPS is in Standby mode. 2. From the main menu, press the down ( ) button to scroll to the Configuration menu, and press the OK button. 3.
Configuring load segments Load segments are sets of receptacles that can be controlled through the LCD, by the network management card, or by power-management software, providing an orderly shutdown and startup of the connected devices. For example, during a power outage, you can keep key devices running while you turn off other devices. This feature enables you to save battery power.
Configuring automatic start delay The load segments turn on automatically after the utility power returns, if they were shut down by any of the following means: v The on/off button v An external command with the auto-restart option v Battery under voltage state v Automatic on battery shutdown command You can change the length of the restart delay time or disable automatic restart.
To set the shutdown times for each load segment, complete the following steps: 1. From the main menu, press the down ( ) button to scroll to the Configuration menu, and press the OK button. 2. Press the down ( ) button to scroll to Automatic on Battery Shutdown, and press the OK button.
Running automatic battery tests The automatic discharge test is enabled by default and runs during the transition from Float to Rest mode. After the test is complete, the charge cycle restarts to completely charge the batteries and then continues to Rest mode. The automatic test runs approximately once every three months and does not run again until after three more Float to Rest mode transitions.
