UPS if the front panel indications are not in accordance with these operating instructions or if the UPS performance alters in use. Refer all faults to your local dealer, Liebert representative or the Liebert Worldwide Support Group. Servicing of batteries should be performed or supervised by personnel knowledgeable of batteries and the required precautions.

Turn the UPS off and isolate the UPS before cleaning; use only a soft cloth, never liquid or aerosol cleaners. Keep the front and rear vents free of dust accumulation that could restrict airflow. When replacing batteries, replace with the same Liebert authorized replacement battery kits. CAUTION Do not dispose of battery or batteries in a fire.

The Liebert GXT2U protects equipment from these disturbances. The Liebert GXT2U is rated for 2700 VA, 1890 watts. Complete model specifications appear at the end of this manual. The Liebert GXT2U is a compact, “on-line” UPS. An on-line UPS continuously conditions and regulates its output voltage, whether utility power is present or not.
The battery charger utilizes energy from the utility power and precisely regulates it to continuously “float charge” the batteries. The batteries are being charged whenever the Liebert GXT2U is plugged in, even when the UPS is not turned on. DISCONTINUED...
Dynamic Bypass The Liebert GXT2U provides an alternate path for utility power to the connected load in the unlikely event of a UPS malfunction. Should the UPS have an overload, overtemperature, or UPS failure condition, the UPS automatically transfers the connected load to bypass.
The UPS is heavy (see Specifications section). Take proper precautions when lifting or moving it. 2. Decide where to place the Liebert GXT2U. Install the UPS indoors in a con- trolled environment, where it cannot be accidentally turned off. Place it in an area of unrestricted airflow around the unit, away from water, flamma- ble liquids, gases, corrosives, and conductive contaminants.

6. Open grease packet provided Apply in this kit. Apply a 1" long grease bead of grease four (4) places UPS or inside the bottom, curved battery tracks of front members as cabinet shown at right. The grease will allow the equipment to slide into the bracket assem- blies more easily.
External Battery Cabinet Installation Optional Liebert external battery cabinets may be connected to the UPS to provide additional battery run time. External battery cabinets are designed to be placed all on one side of the UPS or stacked beneath the UPS. There is no limit to the number of external battery cabinets that can be used but each cabinet will increase the battery recharge time.

4. Use the enclosed support bases for the tower option to prevent tip-over. One additional set of support base extensions ships with each external battery cabinet. 5. Connect the supplied external battery cabi- net cable to the rear of the external battery cabinet, then to the rear of the UPS.
ON - Pressing this button will start up the UPS in order to provide conditioned and protected power. Alarm Silence - To silence alarms, press this button for at least one second. After the alarm is silenced, the Liebert GXT2U will reactivate the alarm system to alert of additional problems. NOTE The LOW BATTERY and BYPASS reminder alarms CANNOT be silenced.
UPS; and during battery mode operation LED indicators display approximate battery capacity. The Liebert GXT2U is equipped with automatic and remote battery test features. The automatic test occurs every 14 days (this option is user configurable) if utility has not been interrupted. Should the battery fail this test, the red Fault indicator LED along with the A and C diagnostic LEDs will illuminate and an alarm will sound (refer to Troubleshooting section).
Output Voltage Selection The Output Voltage is user configurable and is designed to allow selecting or changing the desired output voltage to match the utility via the Liebert GXT2U Configuration Program provided with the UPS. The settings to choose from are 200, 208, 220, 230, and 240 VAC output. The factory default setting is 208 VAC.
PERATING NSTRUCTIONS Normal Mode Operation During normal operation, utility power provides energy to the UPS. The filters, power factor correction circuit and the inverter process this power to provide computer grade power to connected loads. The UPS AC INPUT BATTERY UPS ON BYPASS maintains the batteries in a fully charged state.
Battery Mode Operation Battery mode occurs in event of an extreme input voltage condition or complete utility failure. The battery system supplies power through the DC to DC converter to the inverter to generate power for the AC INPUT BATTERY UPS ON BYPASS connected load.
OMMUNICATIONS Communications Interface Port The Liebert GXT2U UPS has a standard DB-9 serial port female connector located on the rear of the UPS unit. Several signals are provided on this port and are assigned as follows: Assignment Description Low Battery (open collector)

Web site (www.liebert.com) or contact your local dealer or Liebert representative. Several option cards are available for use in the Liebert IntelliSlot port of the Liebert GXT2U. The Liebert IntelliSlot SNMP/Web Card provides SNMP and Web-based monitoring and control of the UPS across the network.
ONFIGURATION ROGRAM This is a new feature included with the new Liebert GXT2U line. Several UPS settings that were previously not available or required custom manufacturing may now be modified using this program. For most users, the factory default settings will be adequate. This manual illustrates the features available for modification, as well as the factory default setting.
UPS in for at least 24 hours every four to six months to ensure full recharge of the batteries. The Liebert GXT2U is designed to allow the user to safely replace the internal batteries. Read the safety cautions before proceeding. Contact your local dealer or Liebert representative to obtain the appropriate replacement battery kit part number and pricing.
Compare new and old battery assemblies to make sure they are the same. If so, proceed with Step 6; otherwise STOP and contact your local dealer, Lie- bert representative, or the Liebert Worldwide Support Group. 6. Line up and slide in the new replacement battery pack.
