Start-Up and Shutdown Sequences 

To run the GUPS 2400A-107 from an AC input, perform the following steps: 

1. 

Turn on the AC input circuit breaker located on the front panel.  

2. 

Wait approximately 10 seconds for completion of the start-up routines. During this 
time, the GUPS performs a self-test to assure proper functionality, and the rectifier 
undergoes a soft-start so that current surges on the AC input are prevented. 

3. 

After  the  start-up  delay,  the  inverter  will  turn  on  (fan  will  be  energized),  but  the 
output will be off. Also, the charger will be on to charge the internal battery. 

4. 

To turn ON the output, press the OUTPUT ON switch. The output relay will close 
and connect the inverter to the load. The inverter will momentarily turn off prior to 
closing of the output relay to prevent switching load current with the relay. 

 

If  the  AC  input  voltage  exceeds  the  allowed  range,  the  unit  will  draw  power from 
the internal battery and continue to run until the battery is depleted. If the AC input 
returns to the allowed range, and low battery shutdown of the inverter has not yet 
occurred, the unit will again draw power from the AC input and also recharge the 
battery with the battery charger. 

5. 

To  turn  OFF  the  output,  press  the  OUTPUT  ON  switch  again;  the  switch  has  a 
alternating  ON/OFF  action.  The  inverter  will  momentarily  turn  off  and  the  output 
relay will open. The inverter will again turn on after the relay is open. The inverter is 
turned  off  while  the  relay  is  opening  to  prevent  switching  load  current  with  the 
relay.  

 

If the AC input voltage exceeds the allowed range while the output is turned off, the 
unit will shut down; the inverter, charger, and all control circuits will be turned off. 

3.8

 

Battery Operation 

To run the GUPS 2400A-107 from battery when an AC input is not present or outside the 
allowed operating range, perform the following: 

1. 

The AC input circuit breaker located on the front panel could be either in the on or 
off positions.  

2. 

To  turn  ON  the  output,  press  the  OUTPUT  ON  switch.  After  a  short  delay,  the 
output relay will close and the inverter will start, supplying power to the load. The 
unit  will  run  until  the  battery  is  depleted.  If  the  AC  input  returns  to  the  allowed 
range, and the AC input breaker is closed, power will be drawn from the AC input 
and the battery charger will recharge the battery.  

 

CAUTION!

 

If the battery module is not inserted when the unit is started, all 
front panel LED’s will indicate RED, and the unit will not operate.
