9 Uninterruptible power supply
With an optionally integrated UPS, the B&R Industrial PC makes sure that the PC system completes write opera-
tions even when a power failure occurs. When the UPS detects a power failure, it switches to battery operation
immediately without interruption. This means that all running programs are shut down properly by the UPS soft-
ware. This prevents the possibility of inconsistent data (only functions if the UPC is already configured and the
driver is activated).
Information:
•
The panel/monitor is not buffered by the UPS and will shut off when the power fails.
•
More detailed information about uninterruptible power supplies can be found in the user's man-
ual for the external UPS. This can be downloaded from the B&R website.
Because the charging circuit is integrated in the housing of the B&R Industrial PC, installation has been simplified
to merely attaching the connection cable to the battery unit mounted next to the PC.
Special emphasis was placed on ease of maintenance when the battery unit was designed. Batteries are easily
accessible from the front and can be switched in just a few moments when servicing.
