Operation Commissioning The Kohler PW 6000 UPS is a high quality electronic machine that must be commissioned by a fully trained and authorised Uninterruptible Power Supplies Ltd. field service engineer before being put into use. Commissioning the UPS involves connecting the UPS battery, checking the electrical installation and operating environment, performing a controlled start-up and testing of the UPS system together with customer training.
The UPS may be switched ON or OFF by simultaneously pressing both ON/OFF keys on the control panel. The requirement to press both buttons is to help avoid accidental UPS start-up or shutdown operation. UPS413-01-00 Kohler PW 6000 (60-500kVA) User Manual 25 June 2012...

The remote stop facility comprises a normally-closed circuit connected between terminal X1/7 and X1/8 (or X3/3 and X3/4) on the communication card located on the Kohler PW 6000 front frame (see Figure 7.3). It is recommended that a terminal block, with linking facilities, is installed between the UPS and the remote emergency stop button, as shown, in order to allow the removal, maintenance or testing of the remote emergency stop circuit without disturbing the normal UPS operation.
The Kohler PW 6000 contains two SNMP slots; one is designed to house a Modem/Ethernet SNMP adapter card and the other a Modem/GSM adapter. Alternatively, SNMP connectivity can also be implemented using an external SNMP adapter connected to the UPS RS232 output.
