DIP SWITCH GROUP A
(All models)
BATTERY TYPE / VOLTAGE POINT
Using a small tool, set the 4 “Battery Type / Voltage Point” Configuration DIP Switches, Group
A (located on the front panel of your APS; see Diagram 1, p. 36) to select battery type and set
the voltage range outside of which your APS will switch to battery power.
• Select Battery Type
(DIP Switch #1, Group A)
CAUTION: The Battery Type DIP Switch setting must match the type of batteries you connect or your batteries may be
degraded or damaged over an extended period of time. See “Battery Selection,” page 8 for more information.

Most loads will perform adequately when your APS’s High AC
Voltage Point DIP Switch #2 is set to 259V and its Low AC Voltage
Point DIP Switches #3 and #4 are set to 182V. However, if your APS
frequently switches to battery power due to momentary high/low line
voltage swings that would have little effect on equipment operation,
you may wish to adjust these settings. By raising the High AC
Voltage Switch to Battery point and/or lowering the Low AC Voltage
Switch to Battery Point, you may reduce the number of times your
APS switches to battery due to voltage swings.
