Warnings
The components in the InfraStruXure Power Generation System can pose life-threatening danger
when improperly installed, operated, or maintained. To prevent accidents, be aware of the dangers
and act safely . Read and follow all of the safety instructions and warnings i n this manual and in all of
your component manuals.
The InfraStruXure Power Generation System is an optional standby system
The Generator and Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) that you purchased from APC is classified as an
Optional Standby System because it provides backup or standby power to data centers in the event of
a sustained power failure.
The InfraStruXure Power Generation System is not to be classified as an Emergency System that is
essential for safety to human life (e.g., fire pumps, operating room and life-support equipment in
hospitals) as legally required by municipal, state, federal, or other governmental codes.
The InfraStruXure Power Generation System is not to be classified as a Legally Required Standby
System, as it is not supplying power to aid in fire fighting, rescue operations, control of health hazards
(e.g., sewage) and similar operations as required by municipal, state, federal, or other governmental
codes.
Emergency and Legally Required Systems are not allowed to rely on municipal fuel for operation, or
municipal water for cooling. Emergency and Legally Required Systems specify dual-fuel systems,
with one of them being a two-hour, on-site fuel supply.
Your InfraStruXure Power Generation System is not to be classified as an Integrated Electrical
System, as an orderly shutdown is not required to prevent damage to the generator. The generator is
not to be paralleled with another generator.
Your generator will operate at its rated load without being refueled for a minimum of six hours, and
should run with no load for a minimum of 12 hours.
Your generator can be without electrical power to the load terminals of the ATS for a maximum of 60
seconds, but will typically be without power for no more than 10 seconds.
Wire sizing
This product was designed to include an APC-manufactured 250-amp ATS. All wiring
recommendations were sized for this amperage in accordance with the National Electrical Code
(NEC). However, this does not prevent you from using the ATS at a lower amperage with smaller
wire sizes. If you decide to operate this ATS at a lower amperage, ensure that the wire sizes are in
accordance with NEC guidelines and your local codes.
2 InfraStruXure Power Generation System

InfraStruXure Power Generation System 3
Overview
InfraStruXure Power Generation System
The InfraStruXure Power Generation System consists of a diesel-powered generator and a Smart
Distribution Panel with Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS). The ATS is connected to both the utility
(Source 1) and the generator (Source 2), with the utility as the preferred source. The ATS can
alternatively be connected to a second utility. The ATS is designed for installation on the data center
floor, which places power distribution closer to your data center equipment. Labels provide a quick
visual indication of which ATS sub-feed breaker is supplying power to each piece of equipment. The
diagram below provides examples of data center equip ment that can be connected to the ATS.

How the InfraStruXure Power Generation System Operates
Generator start sequence
The generator start sequence is followed only if the Crank setting in the Operating Settings menu
on the Generator Settings screen on the ATS display interface is set to Yes. If enabled, the following
sequence will occur:
After a start signal is initiated, either by the ATS or manually, and the generator battery is good, the
generator engine will crank and the generator should start. If the generator does not start, it will crank
for the length of the Crank Time, and then rest for the length of the Rest Time. The generator will
repeat this pattern for the number of times set in Crank Cycles before discontinuing further attempts
to start. Check the messages on the display interface for reasons why the generator did not start.
On the generator controller interface, the LEDs track conditions during the start sequence:
LED Behavior on the Generator Controller Interface

Generator cool-down
After the generator has finished powering the load and utility power has been restored, the generator
will enter a 60-second cool-down period. NOTE: This 60-second cool-down period is a
recommendation from the generator manufacturer. The specified 60-second
cool-down period can
only be re-adjusted (at the ATS) by an APC service technician.
InfraStruXure Power Generation System 7
How the InfraStruXure Power Generation System Operates
Open and closed transfers
When transfers are not occurring, one switch is ON and one switch is OFF.
During a closed transfer, the second switch will turn ON before the first switch turns OFF, creating a
brief period of time when both switches are ON.
Closed Transfer
Source 1 Source 1 Source 2
Source 2
t=miliseconds
During an open transfer, the first switch will turn OFF before the second switch turns ON, creating a
period of time when neither source is connected. This period is commonly referred to as neutral time.
Neutral time is defined by the configurable Open Xfer Time.
Open Transfer
Source 1 Neutral Source 2
t=seconds
You can set whether or not to Allow Closed transfers under the Transfer Setup item on the ATS
Setup menu on the display interface (see page 35 for details about these settings). If the Allow
Closed setting is Yes, the ATS will always seek to perform closed transfers. In order for a closed
transfer to occur, the voltage and frequency for both sources must be acceptable and both sources
must be synchronized. The ATS monitors both sources for synchronization before transferring. If the
time it takes for the sources to become synchronized exceeds the configured Max Sync Time, the
ATS will perform an open transfer instead. During a closed transfer, the ATS also takes into account
the time it takes for the switch to actuate. This results in a seamless transfer in which non-UPSprotected equipment is uninterrupted and the UPS time on battery is reduced or even eliminated.
If the Allow Closed setting is No, the ATS will never perform closed transfers; it will only perform
open transfers (see page 35 for details about these settings).

How the InfraStruXure Power Generation System Operates
Fuel monitoring/runtime calculation
Fuel monitoring is a unique feature of the InfraStruXure Power Generation System. Fuel level is
monitored at the generator (if purchased through APC) and load is measured at the ATS. These
measurements are used to calculate runtime, as explained in the following paragraph:
Fuel is monitored by a level sensor in the generator fuel tank (calibrated to the bottom of the tank)
that changes readings every -inch of fuel-level change. From these fixed-level points, the ATS
counts the number of gallons of fuel used (based on load over time) and subtracts this amount from
the fixed-level fuel amount to provide an accurate estimate of fuel level. Runtime is then calculated
based on the fuel-usage rate at the current load and the remaining fuel in the tank. Once a new fuellevel point is reached, the value of the calculated fuel used is reset and the computation begins again.
The Fuel Level and Runtime Estimate are displayed on the Generator Status screen on the ATS
display interface. In addition, the following Fuel Alarm Limits are displayed in the Alarms menu.
Corresponding values can be set for these limits:
Percent Fill: If the amount of fuel as a percentage falls below this value, an alarm condition
exists.
Runtime: If the estimated runtime falls below this value, an alarm condition exists.

Knockouts are provided on the roof, the
sides, and the floor of the ATS for
running utility and generator input wires
and for distributing power to equipment
in your data center . Co nn ectin g condu it
to the ATS does not require drilling. Use
a knockout punch to enlarge a knockout,
if necessary.
The user connection plate is attached to
the ATS monitoring unit. The plate can
be removed, simplifying access to input
contact, relay output, network, and EPO
connections. These connections can
likewise be routed through a knockout in
the plate (see “User connection plate” on
page 16 for more information) to avoid
wiring complications.
The bottom access panel can be
removed for better access to the panel
board. Use a #2 Phillips screwdriver to
remove the two M6 flat-head screws
securing the panel to the enclosure.
The perforated steel front door protects
against ready access to the switches, the
circuit breakers, and the display interface
(see page 29). To access the display
interface without opening the front door,
simply remove the display’s Plexiglas
covering (see page 67 for instructions).

Automatic Operation
How to reset automatic operation on the ATS and on the generator
Resetting automatic operation on the ATS. If the Not in Automatic Operation LED is lit and
the Automatic Operation switch is in the Enable position, you will need to reset automatic
operation after the event that caused this condition is corrected (see page 21 for a detailed description
of events that might lead to this condition). You can also clear certain alarms by resetting automatic
operation at the ATS (see “Clearing latched alarms” on page 44 for more information).
To reset automatic operation on the ATS, set the Automatic Operation switch to Disable () and
then back to Enable ().
Resetting automatic operation on the generator. If the ATS display interface reports a
generator shutdown alarm and the Alarm LED is lit red, you must reset automatic operation on the
generator to clear the alarm (the Shutdown LED on the generator control panel will also be lit red).
Events that lead to this condition include engaging the data center EPO switch and engaging the
E-stop button on the generator. If any EPO was engaged, the switch must be disengaged before
automatic operation can be reset. If shutdown was not caused by an EPO, contact APC customer
support (see the back cover of this manual). To reset automatic operation on the generator:

Automatic Operation
Problem—loss of automatic operation
Typically, the Not In Automatic Operation LED tracks the state of the Automatic Operation
switch (e.g., the LED is lit when the Automatic Operation switch is in the Disable position). If the
Not In Automatic Operation LED is lit while the Automatic Operation switch is in the
position, check messages on the display interface to determine which of these conditions exist:
1. The ATS unsuccessfully attempted to actuate either the Source 1 or Source 2 switch. This
identifies the existence of one of the following situations:
– The Source 1 switch cannot turn ON (closed)
– The Source 1 switch cannot turn OFF (open)
– The Source 2 switch cannot turn ON (closed)
– The Source 2 switch cannot turn OFF (open)
When the ATS cannot actuate a switch, it will attempt to actuate the switch several more times
before discontinuing further attempts. There are two causes of this condition:
Enable
– The load is receiving power from the utility, and the Source 1 switch trips.
When the Source 1 switch trips, the ATS will try to reclose the switch. If the switch cannot be
closed, the ATS will start the generator and then close the Source 2 switch. The load will be
powered by the generator and the ATS will revert to Not in Automatic Operation mode until
it is reset (see page 20).
– The load is receiving power from the generator, and the Source 2 switch trips.
When the Source 2 switch trips, the ATS will try to reclose the switch. After several attempts,
one of two things will happen depending on whether utility power is available:
• If utility power is not available, the generator will continue to run until utility power
becomes available. Once utility power is available, the ATS will switch to the utility and
turn off the generator . The utility will supply power to the ATS, and the ATS will remain in
Not in Automatic Operation mode until automatic operation is reset (see page 20).
• If utility power is available, the ATS will switch to the utility and turn off the generator.
The utility will supply power to the ATS, and the ATS will remain in Not in Automatic
Operation mode until automatic operation is reset (see page 20).
2. The data center EPO switch that is connected to the ATS EPO interface was engaged.
When the data center EPO is engaged, the Source 1 and Source 2 switches are tri pped open. The
generator’s emergency stop signal becomes engage d and the ATS is no longer supplying output
power. The ATS immediately goes into Not in Automatic Operation mode and stays in this
mode until the system is reset. To reset the system, disengage the data center EPO switch and
reset automatic operation on the generator and on the ATS (see page 20).

Warning—before you operate the ATS manually
The procedures in this section only apply to situations where automatic operation through the ATS is
impossible. One example would be the ATS monitoring unit’s inability to function. If automatic
operation through the ATS is impossible and you must power your load from the generator, follow

How a test occurs
A
When a test is not in progress, the
ATS waits for a test to occur.
Initiate a test by scheduling one
using the Test Schedule screen
on the display interface, or by
starting a test immediately
through the Run/View Test
screen. Once you have initiated a
test, the ATS starts counting
down until the next test will begin
(the Next Test item on the Test
Schedule menu). Once the Next
Test time expires, the ATS will
signal the generator to start. The
generator will then crank in an
attempt to start. If the generator
does not start, the test fails and
the A TS logs that the test failed. If
the generator starts, and the ATS
determines that Source 2 is OK,
the test will begin with the
configurable Warm Up time.
Once the Warm Up time expires,
the ATS determines whether or
not you want to perform a System
Load Test. This is a test the
generator runs with the data
center load applied.

Alarms
Fuel Alarm Limits Low Fuel Alarms:
• Percent Fill: If the amount of fuel as a percentage falls below this value, an alarm
condition exists (see “Fuel monitoring/runtime calculation” on page 9 for more
information).
• Runtime: If the estimated runtime falls below this value, an alarm condition
exists (see “Fuel monitoring/runtime calculation” on page 9 for more
information).
Other Limits Other Limits:
• Frequency: If the frequency is outside this range, an alarm condition exists.
• Alarm Delay: Before an output alarm condition officially exists, the specified
limit must be exceeded for this amount of time (in seconds). The advantage of the
delay is that it filters out short alarm conditions, which are normal in ATS
operation. For example, when utility power is shut off, the AT S wi ll interpret this
as a low-voltage condition; however, once the generator begins operation, this
alarm is meaningless. An Alarm Delay of more than 15 seconds may prevent
display of the low-voltage alarm in this example. The Alarm Delay applies to all
Voltage, Loading, Frequency, and Runtime limits.
Alarm Beeper
Once the alarm beeper sounds, it will continue to beep every 30 seconds. Touching any button on the ATS
display interface will de-activate the beeper. Use this menu option to turn Off the beeper so that it never
sounds when an alarm occurs, or turn On the beeper after you have turned it off. The default is On.
Clearing latched alarms
When an alarm is present, the Alarm LED on the ATS display interface is lit red. To clear latched alarms, you
must acknowledge them differently than other alarms. The following are considered latched alarms:
• Test Complete-Failed: The system has failed a self-test.
• Gen Start Failure: The generator failed to start.
To clear a latched alarm and turn off the LED, choose the Clr Latched Alarms option on the Alarm/Event
Log menu of the Alarms screen. You can also clear latched alarms by resetting automatic operation on the
ATS. Set the Automatic Op erati on switch to Disable (

Configuring the ATS Network Management Interface
Configuration overview
You must configure the following TCP/IP settings before the ATS can operate on a network:
• IP address of the ATS (only needed for manual address assignment)
• Subnet mask
• Default gateway
If a default gateway is unavailable, use the IP address of a usually running
computer that is located on the same subnet as the ATS. The ATS will use the
default gateway to test the network at times when traffic is very light. Refer to
Note
“Watchdog Features” in the “Introduction” of the InfraStruXure Power Generation
System’s on-line Network Management User’s Guide for more information about
the watchdog role of the default gateway.
TCP/IP configuration methods
Use one of the following methods to define the TCP/IP settings needed by the ATS:
• Device IP Configuration Wizard (see “Device IP Configuration Wizard” on this page).
• BOOTP or DHCP server (see “BOOTP & DHCP configuration” on page 53).
• Local computer (see “Local access to the control console” on page 55).
• Networked computer (see “Remote access to the control console” on page 55).
Device IP Configuration Wizard
You can use the Device IP Configuration Wizard on a Windows NT®, Windows 2000, or Windows
XP computer to discover unconfigured ATS systems and configure their basic TCP/IP settings.
To configure one or more ATSs by exporting configuration settings from a configured
ATS, refer to “How to Export Configuration Settings” in the on-line Network

Configuring the ATS Network Management Interface
BOOTP & DHCP configuration
The Boot Mode setting, a TCP/IP option in the ATS’s Network menu, identifies how the TCP/IP
settings will be defined. The possible settings are Manual, DHCP only , BOOTP only , and DHCP &
BOOTP (the default setting).
The DHCP & BOOTP setting assumes that a properly configured DHCP or BOOTP
server is available to provide TCP/IP settings to ATSs. If these servers are unavailable,
Note
see “Device IP Configuration Wizard” on page 52, “Local access to the control console”
on page 55, or “Remote acc ess to the contro l console” on pa ge 55 to configure the
needed TCP/IP settings.
With Boot Mode set to DHCP & BOOTP, the ATS attempts to discover a properly configured server.
It first searches for a BOOTP server, and then a DHCP server, and repeats this pattern until it
discovers a BOOTP or DHCP server.
For more information, see “BOOTP” on this page or “DHCP” on page 54.
Note
BOOTP. Use an RFC951-compliant BOOTP server to configure the TCP/IP settings for the ATS.
The BOOTP setting assumes that a properly configured BOOTP server is available to
provide TCP/IP settings to ATSs. If a BOOTP server is unavailable, see “Device IP
Configuration Wizard” on page 52, “Local access to the control console” on page 55, or
Note
“Remote access to the control console” on page 55 to configure the TCP/IP settings.
1. Make sure the BOOTP setting, a TCP/IP option in the ATS’s Network menu, is enable d.
2. Enter the ATS’s MAC and IP addresses, the subnet mask and default gateway settings, and an
optional Bootup file name in the BOOTPTAB file of the BOOTP server.
For the MAC address, look on the Quality Assurance slip included with the ATS.
See also
3. When the ATS reboots, the BOOTP server provides it with the TCP/IP settings.
– If you specified a bootup file name, the ATS attempts to transfer that file from the BOOTP
server using TFTP or FTP. The ATS assumes all settings specified in the bootup file.
– If you did not specify a bootup file name, the ATS can be configured remotely by using
Telnet or the Web interface: User Name and Password are both apc, by default.
To create the bootup file, refer to your BOOTP server documentation.

DHCP. Use an RFC2131/RFC2132-compliant DHCP server to configure the TCP/IP settings for the
ATS.
This section summarizes ATS communication with a DHCP server. For more detailed
information about how a DHCP server is used to configure network settings for an ATS,

1. The ATS sends out a DHCP request with the following identifiers:
– A Vendor Class Identifier (APC, by default)
– A Client Identifier (the ATS’s MAC address value, by default)
– A User Class Identifier (identification of the ATS’s application firmware, by default)
2. A properly configured DHCP server responds with a DHCP offer that includes all of the
settings the ATS needs for network communication. The DHCP offer also includes the Vendor
Specific Information option (DHCP option 43). By default, the ATS will ignore DHCP offers
that do not encapsulate the APC cookie in the Vendor Specific Information option using the
following hexidecimal format:
Option 43 = 01 04 31 41 50 43
where
– the first byte (

Refer to your DHCP server documentation to add code to the Vendor Specific
Information option. To disable the APC cookie requirement, see “Local access to the
control console” on page 55.
T o change the control console’s DHCP Cookie Is setting, use the Advanced option in
the TCP/IP menu (see “Remote access to the control console” on page 55).

Local access to the control console
Use a local computer that connects to the ATS through the console port on the ATS monitoring unit to
access the control console. If accessing the ATS on the local control console, you will not receive any
information about the generator.
1. Select a serial port on your local computer, and disable any service using that port.
2. Connect the configuration cable (APC part # 940-0103) to the selected port on the computer and
to the console port on the ATS monitoring unit.
®
3. Run a terminal program (such as HyperTerminal
) on your computer and configure the port for
9600 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. Save the changes.
4. Press
ENTER to display the User Name prompt.
5. Use apc for both the User Name and the Password.
6. See “Control console” on page 56 to finish the configuration.
Remote access to the control console
From any computer on the same subnet as the ATS, you can use ARP and Ping to assign the ATS an
IP address, and then Telnet to access that ATS’s control console for configuring its TCP/IP settings.
After an ATS has its IP address configured, you can use Telnet, without first using ARP
and Ping, to access that ATS.
Note
1. Use ARP to define an IP address for the ATS, and use the ATS’s MAC address in the ARP
command. For example, to define an IP address of 156.205.14.141 for an ATS that has a MAC
address of 00 c0 b7 63 9f 67, use one of the following commands:
– Windows command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00-c0-b7-63-9f-67
– LINUX command format:
arp -s 156.205.14.141 00:c0:b7:63:9f:67
For the MAC address, look on the Quality Assurance slip
included with the ATS.

2. Use Ping with a size of 113 bytes to assign the IP address defined by the ARP command. For the
IP address defined in step 1, use one of the following Ping commands:
– Windows command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -l 113
– LINUX command format:
ping 156.205.14.141 -s 113
3. Use Telnet to access the ATS at its newly assigned IP address. For example:
telnet 156.205.14.141
4. Use apc for both the User Name and the Password.
5. See “Control console” on this page to finish the configuration.

Safety warnings
Hazardous voltage from the branch circuit must be isolated from the 24 VAC, 24 VDC, and contact
closure terminals. 24 VAC and 24 VDC are considered Class 2 circuits as defined in Article 725 of
the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70) and Section 16 of the Canadian Electrical Code (C22.1).
A Class 2 circuit is a source having limited voltage and energy capacity:
a. If an Inherently Limited Power Source, then voltage and energy are limited to less than
30 VAC, 30 VDC, and 8 A.
b. If not an Inherently Limited Power Source, then voltage and ener gy are limited to less than
30 VAC, 60 VDC, and 250 VA, while current is limited to 1000/Vmax. The fuse is limited to
5A if less than 20 VAC or 20 VDC; or 100/V maximum if less than 30 VAC or 60 VDC.
If using a 24 VAC, 24 VDC, or contact closure connection to the EPO, include one of the following
UL-listed wire types:
• CL2 Class 2 cable for general purpose use
• CL2P Plenum cable for use in ducts, plenums, and other environmental air space
• CL2R Riser cable for use in a vertical-run shaft from floor to floor
• CL2X Limited Use cable for usage in dwellings or in a raceway
• For installations in Canada, the cable should be CSA Certified, type ELC (extra-low-voltage
control cable).
If not using a CL2 cable, route the EPO wiring in conduit that does not contain any branch circuit
wiring.

Always follow the National Electrical Code (NFPA 75) or the Canadian Electrical Code (CSA C22.1-02) and local codes when
installing the InfraStruXure Power Generation System. The AC Power Input wire sizes provided in this document are recommendations
only. The ATS is provided with a panel board to supply power to multiple loads. Since loading could increase after the product’s initial
installation, the AC Power Input wires were selected for the maximum current that can be delivered by the panel board. If the ATS is
purchased to supply a calculated load rated less than the panel board, and the load will never increase, smaller wires can be used if the
requirements specified in the NEC, the CEC, and local codes are followed.
††
Wire sizes to loads shall be in accordance with the ratings of the circuit breakers selected to power the loads.

If Source 2 is a Second Utility
Differences in your system from information presented in this manual
The ATS was designed for operation with an APC InfraStruXure generator, and this manual assumes
that Source 2 is an APC InfraStruXure generator. If using a secondary utility instead of a generator,
almost all references to the “generator” should be considered references to your second utility as
well. However, the following sections will not apply to your system and should be disregarded:
• “Generator start sequence” on page 7
• “Generator cool-down” on page 7
• “Fuel monitoring/runtime calculation” on page 9
• “Communication converter,” (item 4) on page 13
• “Resetting automatic operation on the generator” on page 20
• “Generator” on page 37
• “Fuel Alarm Limits” on page 44
If your installation includes a secondary utility source, the APC Field Service Engineer
performing your start-up will configure your ATS to operate with two utility sources.
Note
InfraStruXure Power Generation System 81
If Source 2 is a Generator that is Not an APC InfraStruXure Generator
Differences in your system from information presented in this manual
The ATS was designed for operation with an APC InfraStruXure generator, and this manual assumes
that Source 2 is an APC InfraStruXure generator. If using a non-APC generator instead of an APC
generator, almost all references to the “generator” will still be applicable. However, non-APC
generators will generally function differently than APC generators. Therefore, the following sections
will not apply to your system and should be disregarded:
• “Generator start sequence” on page 7
• “Generator cool-down” on page 7
• “Fuel monitoring/runtime calculation” on page 9
• “Communication converter,” (item 4) on page 13
• “Resetting automatic operation on the generator” on page 20
• “Generator” on page 37
• “Fuel Alarm Limits” on page 44
If your installation includes a non-APC generator, the APC Field Service Engineer
performing your start-up will configure your ATS to operate with this generator.
