CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
Figure 3-1 - Front panel controls
•
Fault Indicator (Red)
The Fault indicator is illuminated if the UPS has detected a problem. Also, one or more of the load/battery level indicators
may be illuminated (refer to Troubleshooting Guide).
•
BYPASS Indicator (Amber)
The BYPASS indicator is illuminated when the UPS is operating from BYPASS power. An alarm will sound indicating the
UPS detected a problem, or manually set to BYPASS.
•
UPS ON Indicator (Green)
The UPS On indicator is illuminated when the UPS inverter is operating and supplying power to your connected loads.
•
Battery Indicator (Amber)
The Battery indicator is illuminated when the UPS is operating from the battery system. An alarm will sound indicating the
UPS is powered from batteries.
•
AC Input Indicator (Green)
The AC Input indicator is illuminated when mains power is available and within the input specification.
•
Load/Battery Level Indicators (4 Green, 1 Amber)
The Load/Battery Level indicators have dual functions. During NORMAL mode operation LED indicators display the
approximate electrical load placed upon the UPS; and during battery mode operation LED indicators display approximate
battery capacity.
The UPStation GXT 3x1 is equipped with automatic and remote battery test features. The automatic test occurs every 14
days if a manual battery test has not been performed or if mains has not been interrupted (14 day timer resets if unit goes to
battery). Should the battery fail this test, the fault indicator along with the A and C diagnostic LEDs will illuminate and an
alarm will sound (refer to Troubleshooting Guide). The remote test feature functions with either SiteNet® 2 or SiteNet®
SNMP Manager software and can remotely initiate the battery test.
•
UPS ON/Alarm Silence/Manual Battery Test Button
This button controls output power to connected load(s) and has three functions: UPS ON, Alarm Silence, and Manual
Battery Test.
To start the UPS, while in the BYPASS mode, press this button until the command is acknowledged by a beep from the
audible alarm. This will provide conditioned and protected power into the output terminal block.
To silence alarms, press this button for at least one half second while alarm conditions are present. After the alarm is
silenced, the UPStation GXT will reactivate the alarm system to alert of additional problems.
NOTE:
The low battery and BYPASS reminder alarms cannot be silenced.
