  • Page 20: System Description & Relay Setup

    System Description & Relay Setup System Description The UPStealth® has 8 user-configurable relays that can trigger on a power failure, time of day, temperature, flash time, and at a given battery capacity. Each relay can be assigned to any of these triggers. Likewise, any relay can have more than one trigger type, in which case the relay will trigger if any of the conditions occur.

  • Page 28: Configuring System Capacity Menu

    Description: This menu selects the system capacity mode of the UPStealth®. When HIGH CAPACITY is enabled, the batteries will be allowed to discharge below their optimum cutoff point, allowing for greater available backup time. While high capacity mode does not harm the batteries or the system, the lower cutoff point will decrease the overall longevity of the batteries.
