5.4 Special Features of the UPSI-2401
Reboot Function
If DC IN fails and main power returns during shutdown mode of Windows®, the operating
system will ‘lock’ with the message “Your PC is now safe”. The reboot function restarts the
system after about 5 seconds.
No intervention of the user is required.
Shutdown Suppression
The shutdown signal is suppressed for about 2 minutes while the system is starting
up, since a possible interface check of Windows® with a simultaneous power failure
would switch the UPSI-2401 off. This suppression is only active when the module is
switched on for the first time.
Load sensor
The integrated load sensor switches the UPSI-2401 off >10 W in UPS mode.
Thus, also PCs without ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) can be
switched off safely. If input voltage fails while PC is switched off, the UPS switches itself off
via the load sensor. Thus, the equipped battery is not discharged.
Timer function
In case no UPS Management Software is used the timer function can be used to switch
off the UPSI-2401 in UPS mode after a pre-adjusted interval.
