Safety: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
User Safety  
WARNING!  
User functions: For safety reasons the user may only  
- Remove the finishing panels for air filter exchange  
- Operate the UPS display.  
WARNING!  
The UPS can be powered from more than one source.  
CAUTION!  
The system is equipped with an optional auto-start function, enabling the system to start  
without any warning when power is applied.  
Typically, the UPS installation will be connected to an EPO (Emergency Power Off)  
button located on a wall near the entrance to the room. If activated, the EPO switches off  
power to the UPS, disconnects the UPS output, and switches off power to the entire  
Note  
room. This action will disconnect support to the load if the UPS is online.

The APC Remote Monitoring Service uses HTTP protocol to post information to its database. If a  
proxy server is used as Internet connection method, then the required proxy server port settings must  
be specified (a proxy server acts as an agent between a workstation user or other networked device  
and the Internet so that the security, administrative control and caching service can be regulated).  
• Use Proxy: Select this checkbox if the Internet connection method uses a HTTP proxy server to  
connect to the Internet.  
• Proxy server address: Enter the fully qualified IP address or fully qualified domain name of the  
proxy server. If you do not know the server address or port number, contact your network  
administrator.  
• Proxy server port: Enter the port number of the proxy server.  
• Use authentication: Select this checkbox if the proxy server requires a login. Then specify a  
Proxy server login (user name) and a Proxy server password.

• Battery monitor test: Setting this value to True results in an automatic battery monitor test being  
performed at regular intervals specified by the Service Engineer. The three options are:  
– Auto battery test - every (N) week(s).  
– Auto battery test - on one day of the week.  
– Auto battery test - at a specific time of the day.  
• Battery capacity test: Setting this value to True results in the batteries being discharged until a  
Battery Low Voltage Level is reached. This test can only be performed manually. The test is  
used to cycle the batteries in order to calibrate the backup time with the current load and battery  
modules installed.  
• Battery monitor reset: In the event of a weak battery or another battery problem, use this button  
to reset the battery monitor.

Operation Modes  
On-line Operation  
During on-line operation, the critical load is supported by the inverters. The main inverter controls  
the output voltage and the delta inverter controls the input current. The delta inverter also provides  
battery-charging current. While the UPS is running in this mode, a single-line diagram will appear on  
the screen. The green line indicates the power flow from the utility supply through the UPS to the  
load.  
CAUTION!  
Do not open Q2 when the UPS is in on-line operation, as this action may result in a load  
drop or a failure of the UPS to support the load.

Battery Operation  
During battery operation, the load is supported by the inverters. The inverters are supplied by battery  
power, ensuring uninterrupted support to the load.  
While the UPS is running in battery operation, a single-line diagram will appear on the screen with a  
green line indicating the power flow from the batteries through the main inverter to the load for as  
long as the batteries are energized.  
CAUTION!  
Do not open Q2, Q7 or Q8 when the UPS is in battery operation, as this action may result

Manual Bypass Operation  
During manual bypass operation, the critical load is supplied directly by utility power, making it  
possible to isolate the UPS and the Bypass Static Switch for maintenance.  
Battery power is not available as an alternate power source while the system is running  
in manual bypass operation.  
Note  
A single-line diagram will appear on the screen, with an orange line indicating the power flow from
