Configuring the UPS
NOTE:
If the UPS firmware version is 2.00 or later, follow the instructions in “Configuring the
UPS.” If the UPS firmware version is earlier than 2.00, or the ERM cannot be configured from
the UPS front panel, use the ERM configurator tool. To update the UPS firmware or download
the ERM configurator tool, see the HP website (
http://www.hp.com/go/rackandpower
).
After the ERMs are installed, place the UPS in Configure mode (on page
28
), and use the UPS front panel
controls and LED indicators to configure the UPS for the number of attached ERMs. Other UPS parameters
that can also be configured are the nominal utility voltage level and Site Wiring Fault detection.
In Configure mode, the LED front panel display changes function to enable modification of the UPS
parameters. Each LED is associated with a different parameter.
