INDICATORS AND ICONS LOCATED ON THE LCD DISPLAY Buzzer: The buzzer is always flashing when unit turned on. Green Mode Bulb: When green mode is enabled, and the UPS has switched to Green Mode due to a load of less than 3% being detected, the bulb symbol will flash.
CONTROLS The primary front panel user controls consist of one switch and three buttons: The switch located to the right of display is the INPUT CIRCUIT BREAKER. The three buttons located to the left of the display, from top to bottom are titled “Function/TEST”, “Set/ALARM SILENCE”, and “STANDBY”.
CAUTION When the UPS is in Normal On-line mode, pressing the BYPASS button once will put the UPS into BYPASS MODE. During this time, should the utility power become unavailable, the UPS will shut down. Once the unit is in BYPASS MODE operation, pressing this button again will force UPS back to On-line operation.
BYPASS MODE The UPS will automatically go to BYPASS mode in the event it is overloaded or suffers an internal failure. When in bypass, the UPS will transfer the connected loads directly to utility power. When in bypass mode, BATTERY MODE will not be available. However, the utility power continues to be passively filtered by the UPS.
TURNING THE UPS OFF To turn off the UPS: While in Normal On-line mode, press the BYPASS button for one second. The UPS will go into BYPASS MODE. Next, turn off the INPUT BREAKER. The unit will shut down immediately. NOTE! DURING SHUT DOWN, DO NOT PRESS ANY BUTTON SINCE UPS MIGHT BE RE- ENERGIZED AND DELIVER POWER TO ITS OUTPUT UNEXPECTEDLY.
