The UPS has a five-button graphical LCD. It provides useful information about the UPS itself, load status, events, measurements and settings.
The following table shows the indicator status and description:
Indicator | Status | Description |
![]() Green | On | The UPS is operating normally |
![]() Yellow | On | The UPS is on battery mode |
Flashing | The battery voltage is below the warning level | |
![]() Red | On | The UPS has an active alarm or fault. See troubleshooting for additional information. |
As default, or after 5 minutes of inactivity, the LCD displays the screen saver.
The backlight LCD automatically dims after 10 minutes of inactivity. Press any button to restore the screen.
The following table describes the status information provided by the UPS
Note. If other indicator appears, see troubleshooting for additional information.
Operation status | Possible cause | Action |
Standby mode![]() | The UPS is OFF, waiting for start-up command from user | Equipment is not powered until button is not pressed. |
Normal mode![]() | The UPS is operating normally. | The UPS is powering and protecting the equipment. |
In AVR mode ![]() Load protected LED is ON No beep | The UPS is operating normally but the utility voltage is outside normal mode thresholds. | The UPS is powering the equipment through a Automatic Voltage Regulation device. The equipment is still normally protected. |
On Battery ![]() Battery LED is on 1 beep every 10 seconds | A utility failure has occured and the UPS is in Battery mode. | The UPS is powering the equipment with the battery power. Prepare your equipment for shutdown. |
End of backup time![]() Battery LED is blinking 1 beep every 3 seconds | The UPS is in battery mode and the battery is running low. | This warning is approximate, and the actual time to shutdown may vary siginificantly. Depending on the UPS Load and number of Extended Battery modules (EBMs), the "Battery Low" warning may occur before the battery reach 25% capacity. |

Elements supplied depending on the version or optional
Packing materials must be disposed of in compliance with all local regulations concerning waste. Recycling symbols are printed on the packing materials to facilitate sorting.
Note. The two supports for the tower position are used on the RT 2U version only.
Follow steps 1 to 4 for module mounting on the rails.
The rails and necessary hardware are supplied by EATON.
The RS232 and USB communication ports cannot operate simultaneously.
The UPS can now communicate with EATON power management software.
Installation of the communication cards (optional, standard on the Netpack versions)
It is not necessary to shutdown the UPS before installing a communication card.
Characteristics of the contact communication port (optional)
When a signal is activated, the contact is closed between the common (pin 2) and the pin for the corresponding signal.
Contact characteristics (optocoupler)
The HotSwap MBP module makes it possible to service or even replace the UPS without affecting the connected loads (HotSwap function).
Do not use UPS outlets (8) and (9) to supply equipment because use of switch (55) on the HotSwap MBP module would cut supply to the equipment.
HotSwap MBP module operation
The HotSwap MBP module has a rotary switch (55) with two positions:
Normal t he load is supplied by the UPS, LED (53) is on.
Bypass t he load is supplied directly by the AC-power source. LED (54) is on.
UPS start-up with the HotSwap MBP module
HotSwap MBP module test
Check that the indications on the name plate located on the back of the UPS correspond to the AC-power source and the true electrical consumption of the total load.
Note. The UPS charges the battery as soon as it is connected to the AC-power source, even if
button is not pressed.
Once the UPS is connected to the AC-power source, eight hours of charging are required before the battery can supply the rated backup time.
To start the UPS:
Before using this feature, the UPS must have been powered by utility power with output enabled at least once.
Battery start can be disabled. See the "Cold start" setting in "ON/OFF Settings".
To start the UPS on battery:
To shut down the UPS:
The connected devices are supplied by the battery.
The remaining battery power is low. Shut down all applications on the connected equipment because automatic UPS shutdown is imminent.
Following an outage, the UPS restarts automatically when AC input power returns (unless the restart function has been disabled) and the load is supplied again.
5PX offers a choice between two remote control functions.
These functions are obtained by opening a contact connected between the appropriate pins of connector (5) on the rear panel of the UPS (see figures below).
Contact open: UPS shutdown
Contact closed: UPS start-up (UPS connected to AC power and AC power is available)
Note. The local ON/OFF control using button
overrides the remote-control function.
Contact open: UPS shutdown, LED goes ON.
To return to normal operation, deactivate the remote external contact and restart the UPS by pressing button .
This connector must only be connected to SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) circuits.
Operation status | Possible cause | Action |
Batteries disconnected![]() | The UPS does not recognise the internal batteries | If the condition persists, contact your service representative |
The batteries are disconnected | Verify that all batteries are properly connected. If the condition persists, contact your service representative. | |
Overload![]() | Power requirements exceeds the UPS capacity (greater than 105% of nominal) | Remove some of the equipment from the UPS. The UPS continues to operate, but may shutdown if the load increases. The alarm resets when the condition becomes inactive. |
End of battery life![]() | The end of the battery life is reached. | Contact your service representative for battery replacement. |
Event![]() | An UPS event occurs | |
Example: Remote Power OFF, the RPO contact has been activated to shutdown the UPS and now prevents restart. | Set the contact back to its normal position and press ![]() | |
UPS fault![]() | An internal failure occured with the UPS | The UPS does not protect the equipment anymore.
|
Indication | Diagnostic | Correction | |
1 | The load is no longer supplied when the rotary switch (55) on the HotSwap MBP module is set to Bypass position. |
| Check the wiring between the UPS and the HotSwap MBP module (see "Connection with a HotSwap MBP module" section). |
2 | The load is no longer supplied when the rotary switch (55) on the HotSwap MBP module is set to Normal position. |
|
|
3 | The load is no longer supplied after AC-power fails. |

The battery can cause electrocution and high short-circuit currents. The following safety precautions are required before servicing the battery components:
Carry out the above instructions in reverse order.
The HotSwap MBP module makes it possible to service or even replace the UPS without affecting the connected loads (HotSwap function).
