Unlike other UPS structures, where the
«
Master
»
and
«
Slave
»
equipments are preset strictly from factory, conditioning the
order of start up and shutdown, the new
SLC CUBE3+
series
is managed by a more flexible hierarchy according to the oper-
ating mode that it is.

UPS OR SYSTEM START UP.
6.2.1. Controls before starting up.
•
Make sure that all the connections have been made correctly
and are sufficiently tight, respecting the labelling of the equip-
ment and instructions of section «5.- Installation and connection
of the unit»
•
Check that the UPS or each UPS switches and the batteries
cabinet or cabinets, as well as the switchgear panel board are
turned (position «Off»).
•
Be sure that all the loads are turned «Off».
6.2.2. Start up procedure.
6.2.2.1. First start up procedure.
•
When commissioning an equipment for first time, the installation
menu is automatically triggered in the control panel, by default it
is displayed in «English» language. By means of this menu, the fol-
lowing parameters can be set: language, time and date, nominal
operating voltage and frequency of the equipment.
Although depending on the UPS model, the control panel can
be alphanumerical or touchscreen, the graphics can differ but
the quantity of parameters to set are the same. In the first case,
each one of them are selected and entered in separate menus
through chained screens and in the second one, they are dis-
played through a single screen by means of drop down fields to
select the several input figures.
•
For parallel systems, repeat the steps for each one of
them that it makes up, being able to do it in all of them
at the same time or chronologically one by one.
•
Supply input voltage to the switchgear panel board.
•
Turn «On» the input switch or switches of the panel board.
•
Turn «On» the UPS input switch
(Q1a)
or from each equipment
that the systems is make up.
•
In equipments with alphanumerical display,
the following
message will be displayed for a few seconds:
CONFIGURATION
MENU
6. OPERATING.
•
In this section, it is described the procedure to com-
missioning and shutdown the equipment, neverthe-
less depending on the control panel included in the
equipment, alphanumerical or touchscreen, the procedure
will be different. Proceed according to the control panel
built in the unit.
For more information about the alphanumerical screen,
consult section 7 and for touch screen consult the at-
tached document EL064*01 in the CD-ROM.
•
During the description of this section, it is detailed the procedure
to follow to get the different functionality, considering a system
of
«n»
equipments connected in parallel.
If in your case, it is available
only one
UPS from
SLC CUBE3+
,
series, proceed in the same order, but simplifying the operating
for a
single
unit.
•
As it has been stated before, it is advisable to have an
external manual bypass panel board equipped with
input, output, static bypass (
CUBE3+ B
version only) and
manual bypass protections, in single installations.
For parallel systems, more than
recommended
it is consid-
ered
essential,
to have a protection panel.
–
The switches from the panel allows both isolating each
UPS of the system in a single way against any failure
and feeding the loads with the rest of the equipments.
–
Also, it is a safety precaution measures for the mainte-
nance personnel of T.S.S., because it allows making the
needed tasks with no risk of electrical shock.
•
Therefore it has been considered appropriate and naturally, to
contemplate in the instructions of the equipment, the operating
of a system with
«n»
equipments connected in parallel with
their respective external manual bypass panel board as it is
shown in the
«
Recommended installation
»
documentation in-
cluded in the CD.
This panel board allows isolating each equipment individually in
case of fault and removing it without any difficulty for its repa-
ration or replacement. Also, the included manual bypass switch
makes easier the preventive maintenance tasks or intervention
over the complete system, supplying the voltage to the loads di-
rectly from mains, on the
«
bypass
»
mode operating, meanwhile
the input voltage is available.
In those installations without the external manual bypass panel
board, omit the actions and steps that involve the manoeuvring
of their switches.
6.1.
RELEVANT PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS .
•
It is very important to always operate in the established order
in the described instructions in the next sections, by respecting
the sequence of the switches in relation to its function.
So, i.e. in parallel system based on four equipments, when it is
stated to turn on the
«
Input
»
mechanisms, the order of turning on
them will not matter, but any other switch with different function
as it could be
«
Output
»
switch will not be turned on, till is stated.
