5.2 Start-up
The numbers between (brackets) refer to figure 12 in section 5.1.
Note: the UPS can be started on battery power if the mains input voltage is not available or if MCB
‘mains’
is in off-position: simply skip step 1. To prevent accidental discharging of the batteries, it is
however recommended to proceed with step 1 and start the unit only when the mains input voltage is
available.
1.
Turn MCB '
mains
' (8) and MCB '
static bypass
' (9), both on the rear panel, into position ‘on’ (up).
2.
Some UPS parameters (e.g. voltage, frequency, LCD language) are user selectable. If you want to
change one or more settings, please refer to section 5.3.4 ‘Set-up Menu’ now. Changing the settings
later is possible, however only after switching off the unit.
3. Turn
switch
'UPS on/off'
(rear panel, 7) into position ‘on’ (up).
The green LED
'operation'
(front panel, 5) will illuminate.
After switching on the UPS performs a self-test and the display (front panel, 1) will show:
SELFTEST
IN PROGRESS
After completion of the self-test the output voltage of the UPS is available and the unit is ready for use.
The display will show the default screen: model and actual load (values are examples)
LP 5-11
LOAD 37%
In case of a system failure the self-test results in a failure message; this message is displayed for 30
seconds before the self-test is repeated automatically. If the faulty situation persists, switch off the UPS
and contact your dealer. See chapter 9 for more information.
4.
Though the batteries (the internal energy reserve) were fully charged when the UPS left the factory,
they might have lost some energy during transport and/or storage. It is recommended to allow the UPS to
recharge the batteries for a few hours. This way you ensure that the UPS can provide sufficient runtime in
case of a mains power failure.
5.
If not yet switched on, the equipment connected to the UPS can be switched on now; operate as usual.
