Using The Front Panel Display - Powerware 9170 User Manual

Using the Front Panel Display

The front panel display shows several important things (see Figure 55).
The numbers in the upper left corner (for example, 1 2 9) are the display
location within the operating menu structure. The word in the top center
(for example, USER ) is the security level, which allows various operating
parameters to be changed.
The number in the upper right corner (for example, #2) identifies the
cabinet slot (numbered from the top down) for a specific power
module's parameters. #0 is defined as System, enabling you to observe
overall system operation.
One or two triangles at the right of the display tells you which arrow
buttons are active for moving to various parameters within a menu level.
See Figure 60 on page 85 for the complete system menu.
The words or symbols in the bottom line of the display define the
function of the three buttons below the display. In Figure 55, Slot
(button A) enables you to observe the operation of a specific power
module (the module in slot #2, in this case) or the overall system
(selected as slot #0). Top (button B) takes you to the top item in the
current menu level (in this case, 1 2 1). And ESC (button C) enables you
to move out of the current menu level (in this case, to menu 1 2).
During normal operation, the display appears as shown in Figure 56. Md:
indicates the current UPS operating mode and St: indicates the
operational state. The number of power modules (M) and number of
battery module strings (B) that are currently online, and the total
number of module slots in the cabinet—for example, M4-B7-12—is
shown in the upper right corner of the display. (The count of battery
strings does not include additional battery strings contained in connected
external battery cabinets.)
