the UPS should transition back to the Default state (depending on the fault that is
cleared).
Battery Test State
The UPS may be manually or automatically put into the battery test state, but the UPS
will automatically transition back to the default state when the test is complete. The
battery test will automatically run when the UPS is powered ON and periodically while
the unit is operating. The battery test may also be manually executed at any time. The
frequency and duration of the battery test may have an impact on the battery life. All
battery tests are preset for a duration of 10 seconds. The user can select the frequency
of the test. The battery test may be automated through the network card on all 1-3kVA
UPS units.
The 1-3kVA UPS does not go into the battery state when the battery test is run. The
UPS stays in the default state for powering the load, but the battery charger is turned
OFF and the battery discharges for 10 seconds through an internal load. If the battery is
damaged or disconnected, the UPS presents a No Battery Alarm, which means the user
should replace the battery or check the battery connection. The UPS will automatically
turn the battery charge back ON when the battery test completes.
