ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY—The Liebert PSI series complies with the require- ments of EMC Directive 89/336/EEC and the published technical standards. Continued compliance requires installation in accordance with these instructions and use of Emerson Network Power- approved accessories only. When using the communication features on this UPS, ensure the cabling connected to the DB-9 or UPS communications ports are kept separated from the power leads to the UPS input and output.

Operational Modes PERATIONAL ODES Normal Mode When the UPS is in Normal Mode, the Normal Mode Indicator illuminates green. Buck/Boost Mode The Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) circuitry compensates for fluctuations in mains power, such as voltage surges and sags. The Liebert PSI compensates for these by raising the undervoltage (boost) or lowering the overvoltage (buck).
Communication OMMUNICATION DB-9 Connector The UPS has a DB-9 (9 pin female) connector on the rear to allow UPS status communications with a computer running Liebert MultiLink software in contact closure mode. The connection provides On Battery and Low Battery notification. When power is interrupted and battery power is low, Liebert MultiLink software can signal the host computer to gracefully shut down the operating system.
Communication UPS Communications The Liebert PSI is equipped with a Liebert IntelliSlot port to provide advanced communication and monitoring options. Liebert MultiLink software continually monitors the UPS and can shut down your computer or server via USB, contact closure and SNMP (via IS-WEBRT3 card) in the event of an extended power failure. The Liebert IS-WEBRT3 provides SNMP and Web-based monitoring and control of the UPS across the network.
UPS is switched Off. If the Liebert PSI will be stored for an extended period, Emerson recommends connecting the UPS to input power for at least 8 hours every four to six months to keep the batteries charged.
