CAUTIONWhen the UPS is in Normal On-line mode, pressing the bypass button once will put the UPSinto Bypass Mode. While in bypass, should the utility power become unavailable, the UPSoutput will turn off and the UPS will shut down.Once the unit is in Bypass Mode operation, pressing this button again will force UPS back toon-line mode operation.5.0 UPS OPERATIONOPERATING MODES (LCD models only, LED models are self-explanatory)The following outlines the UPS status for each mode of operation as displayed by the LCD.NORMAL ON-LINE MODE OPERATIONDuring normal on-line operation, utility power provides energy to the UPS. The filters, power factorcorrector and the inverter process the power to provide computer grade power to connected loads.The UPS maintains the batteries in a fully charged state.The LCD display icon configuration on the left indicates on-line modeoperation, indicating the percent of load, inverter, PFC, line, chargerand battery operation and status. The fan is shown at mediumspeed.The dark, solid line on the MIMIC portion of the display indicates thenormal mode power flow from input, through the inverter, to load andfrom the input, to the charger and into the battery.BATTERY MODE OPERATIONThe battery mode icon configuration is displayed during a loss of utility power or during excessivelyhigh line voltage conditions. When in battery mode, the UPS battery supplies energy to the DC toDC converter, and then on to the inverter, which powers the connected load. During the batterydischarging, the audible alarm will beep. The rate of the beeping will increase as the battery runs low(low battery), prior to UPS shut down. Once the low battery warning is sounded, there will be aboutone minute of battery runtime remaining.After the UPS has shut down, when utility power has been restored, the UPS will automaticallyrestart. For approximate battery run times, refer to the specifications and extended battery runtimechart in this manual. The runtime is based on a resistive load being connected to the UPSoutput, and an ambient temperature of 77ºF (25ºC).The LCD display icon configuration on the left indicates the UPS isin Battery Mode. The dark solid line indicates battery power flow tothe DC to DC converter and on to the inverter. The fan is shown inhigh speed mode. The bars inside the battery icon indicate theamount of battery capacity remaining; each bar represents a 25%capacity increment. As capacity decreases, fewer bars will remainilluminated. The charger icon is turned off.18
