Introduction Introduction General Congratulations on your choice of UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply). This UPS has been designed and produced for reliable and troublefree long-term use. For you it means that once installed and commissioned, you can forget it. You only have to arrange a preventive maintenance as described in section 8 of this manual.
Stop – start Stop – start General According to electrical regulations only the local authorized electrical installer is normally allowed to perform a complete switching in and out of the UPS, as it involves operation of the battery supply breaker, where touch of high voltage parts is possible.
Operation Operation The display is used to show parameters, alarms/messages, and measured values. The alarm LED is used with an audible alarm to indicate unusual operating situations. The keyboard is used for programming and control of displaying param- eters, alarm messages, and displaying measured values. Keyboard description 7OA0001 GB rev.09 User Guide DP300E...
Programming parameters Programming parameters General Some operating parameters can be programmed directly from the keyboard, but this has already been done during the commissioning. Unless you are quite sure of the consequence of changing the following parameters, then let it be a task for your local dealer, if needed.

Alarms Alarms - What to do General Alarms are indicated by the red lamp (above the upper left corner of the keyboard) and by a 30 secs. acoustic signal. An alarm is registered in an alarm stack as long as it is present, and if more in the same succession as they arise.
Alarms The events logger The events logger is a memory stack, in which the last 250 events are stored in the same succession as they arose. (Showing the latest at first). Events stored are the alarms and the following operational modes: Mode Comments MPU is reset...

Service Bypass Switch 7.2.3 Isolating one UPS for service/maintenance In a redundant system one UPS can be isolated for service/maintenance without affecting the other parallel UPS(s). Service Bypass Switch 1. Check that the remaining UPS(s) will be able to carry the load when one UPS is isolated.
Preventive maintenance Preventive maintenance General The maintenance of the UPS systems should be carried out by trained service engineers. We recommend that you sign a service and maintenance contract. It is recommended to replace the fans every 3rd year. Battery Systems with built-in batteries have as standard a battery monitoring feature (option in other systems).
Preventive maintenance 8.4 Battery capacity test Actions Display shows Description Note: Expect 16 hours recharge 1. Press time after a battery capacity test before full backup time is available. 2. Press “xxx” is back-up time from last test – Battery capacity until if no previous test has been per- test :...
Economy Operation Economy operation General In economy operation the load is supplied directly from the mains, however the UPS is monitoring the mains and the output voltages and will in case of mains failure switch to battery operation without interruptions. The system will in order to keep the batteries fully charged at all times switch to normal operation in a pre-programmed sequence.
Software 10.0 Software 10.1 Choice of software The CD is devided into two main parts: - DP-SOFT : for serial communication - DP-SOFT+ : for parallel communication (e.g. for MLU-box) Installation: See software guide included on the CD. 10.2 Configuration code at normal operation (Regarding test, see further information in guide included on the CD).
