6. Operating the Alpha FXM

6.1 Switching the Alpha FXM On and Off

Under normal operation, the Alpha FXM is always powered ON to supply uninterruptible power to the load.
Switching off the Alpha FXM will disconnect the power supply to the load. If for any reason you need to switch off
the Alpha FXM while maintaining power to your critical load, make sure that you have a plan that provides an
alternate source of power.

6.1.1

Switch Off Procedure

1. Switch off the AC input circuit breaker.

2. Switch off the battery circuit breaker.

The status LED turns off and the LCD panel goes blank. The Alpha FXM is now switched off and no backup
power is supplied to the load.

6.1.2

Switch On Procedure (LINE mode)

Before you put the Alpha FXM back into commission, make sure that the line is qualified and the batteries are fully
charged.

1. Switch on the battery circuit breaker. The LCD displays

STANDBY

and the fan turns on for about a minute.

If the temperature is below –15ºC, the LCD display may not function. See Chapter "8. Troubleshooting".

2. Switch on the AC input circuit breaker. The Alpha FXM qualifies the line power. The LCD displays

RETRAN

, then shows

LINE

,

BUCK

or

BOOST

. The status LED illuminates.

3. If there is no line power, the Alpha FXM remains in the

STANDBY

mode until the line power is qualified. To

provide backup battery power to the load, perform a manual start by using the Inverter command: From
the Control Menu, scroll till the LCD displays

Inverter

, press

Select

and select

ON

. (See Figure 11 on page

The Alpha FXM uses auto-frequency detection. When it is first switched on, it senses the line frequency and
adjusts its output frequency to match that of the input. The load should be receiving power, If not, perform
trouble- shooting.

6.1.3

Switching the Alpha FXM from Line mode to Inverter mode

You can force the Alpha FXM to operate in the Inverter mode by manually switching off the input circuit breaker.
Doing so will effectively disconnect any line power to the Alpha FXM, simulating a power outage which triggers
the Alpha FXM to switch to the inverter mode of operation.

Procedure

1. Switch off the input circuit breaker. The LCD shows

INVERTER

, the status LED starts flashing to show that

the Alpha FXM is running on backup battery power. Confirm that the load is receiving power.
