APC 700, 2200, 3000, 1400, 450 User Manual
This UPS has a diagnostic feature that displays the utility voltage. With the UPS plugged into the normal utility power, press and hold the on/test button to see the utility voltage bar graph display. After approximately four seconds the 5-LED display on the right of the front panel shows the utility input voltage. Refer to the figure below for the voltage reading.
Overload
When loads exceed the UPS’s capacity, the overload LED illuminates, the UPS emits a sustained tone, and the input circuit breaker may trip (the resettable center plunger of the circuit breaker pops out). The alarm remains on until the overload is removed. Disconnect nonessential load equipment from the UPS to eliminate the overload. If there is AC power and the circuit breaker does not trip during overload, the loads are still powered. If the circuit breaker trips and the UPS attempts to go on-battery, the output AC will shut down.
Cold Start
When the UPS is off and there is no utility power, it is possible to cold start the UPS to power the loads from the UPS’s battery.
Note: Cold start is not a normal condition.
7 min.
5 min.
Press the configuration button once to set the low battery warning interval to approximately five minutes. Press it again to set the interval to
approximately seven minutes. Press the button a third time to reset the interval to two minutes.
Low Battery Warning Interval
By default, the low battery warning occurs when there are approximately two minutes of on-battery run time remaining. This may not be enough time to gracefully shut down some protected computer systems.
To change the warning interval, press the rear panel configuration button while pressing and holding the front-panel
on/test button.

Inspection

Inspect the UPS upon receipt. Notify the carrier and dealer if there is damage. The packaging is recyclable; save it for reuse or dispose of it properly.

Placement

Install the UPS in a protected area that is free of excessive dust and has adequate air flow. Do not operate the UPS where the temperature and humidity is outside the specified limits.

Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the warranty.

Installation

To install this UPS, please follow the installation instructions in the Smart-UPS Quick Reference Guide.

This UPS is equipped with a SmartSlot for accessories. See the APC Website (www.apcc.com) for available accessories.

Charge the battery

The UPS charges its battery whenever it is connected to utility power. The battery will charge fully during the first 4 hours of normal operation. Do not expect full runtime during this initial charge period.

Operating Instructions

Switch On — Switch Off

With the UPS plugged in, press and release the large upper on/test button to supply power to the loads. The

loads are immediately powered while the UPS performs a self-test.

Press and release the small, lower off button to turn off power to the loads. It may be convenient to use the UPS as a master on/off switch for the protected equipment.

Note: Whenever the UPS is plugged in and utility voltage is present, the charger maintains battery charge.

The on-line LED illuminates when the UPS is supplying utility power to the loads.

Self-test

The UPS performs a self-test automatically when turned on, and every two weeks thereafter (by default). Automatic self-test eases maintenance requirements by eliminating the need for periodic manual self-tests.

During the self-test, the UPS briefly operates the loads on-battery. If the UPS passes the self-test, it returns to on-line operation.

If the UPS fails the self-test it immediately returns to online operation and lights the replace battery LED.

The loads are not affected by a failed test. Recharge the battery overnight and perform the self-test again. If the replace battery LED is still on, replace the battery using the Replacing the Battery procedure.

SmartTrim

The SmartTrim LED comes on to indicate that the UPS is compensating for a high voltage.

SmartBoost

The SmartBoost LED comes on to indicate that the UPS is compensating for a low voltage.

Connect Computer Interface Port (Optional)

Power management software and interface kits can be used with this UPS. Use only kits supplied or approved by the manufacturer. If used, connect the interface cable to the 9-pin computer interface port on the back panel of the UPS. Secure the connector’s screws to complete the connection.

Connect Ground Leads to TVSS Connector (Optional)

The UPS features a TVSS connector for connecting the ground lead on transient voltage surge-suppression (TVSS) devices such as telephone and network line protectors. The TVSS connector provides grounding through the UPS’s power cord ground conductor. To make a connection to the TVSS connector, loosen the screw and connect the surge suppression device’s ground lead. Tighten the screw to secure the lead.

Battery Pack Connector (3000 VA only)

Use the battery pack connector to connect the optional external battery pack.

On Battery

During on-battery operation, the on-battery LED illuminates and the UPS sounds an audible alarm consisting of four beeps every 30 seconds. The alarm stops when the UPS returns to on-line operation.

Low Battery

When the UPS is operating on-battery and the energy reserve of the battery runs low, the UPS beeps continuously until the UPS shuts down from battery exhaustion or returns to on-line operation.

shows the present charge of the UPS’s battery as a

percentage of the battery’s capacity. When all five

40%

LEDs light, the battery is fully charged. The top

20%

LED goes out whenever the battery is not 100%

 

charged. When the LEDs are flashing, the battery

can supply less than the “low battery warning interval” time for the load.

Shutdown Mode

If there is no utility power present, a host system connected to the computer interface port can command the UPS to shut down. This is normally done to preserve battery capacity after a controlled shutdown of the protected system. In shutdown mode the UPS stops supplying power to the load, waiting for the return of utility power.

The UPS scrolls the front panel indicators sequentially in shutdown mode. If the UPS has shutdown due to a low battery, the UPS lights the Battery Charge Bar Graph only. When line power is restored, the UPS returns to on-line operation.

Replace Battery

If the battery fails a self-test, the UPS emits short beeps for one minute and the replace battery LED illuminates. The UPS repeats the alarm every five hours. Perform the self-test procedure to confirm replace battery conditions. The alarm stops when the battery passes the self-test.

rated capacity. For example, if three LEDs are lit, the

17%

load is drawing between 50% and 67% of the UPS’s

 

capacity. If all five LEDs light, thoroughly test your

 

complete system to make sure that the UPS will not

 

become overloaded.

Voltage Sensitivity

The UPS detects line voltage distortions such as spikes, notches, dips, and swells, as well as distortions caused by operation with inexpensive fuel-powered generators. By default, the UPS reacts to distortions by transferring to on-battery operation to protect the loads. Where power quality is poor, the UPS may frequently transfer to on-battery operation. If the loads can operate normally under such conditions, battery capacity and service life may be conserved by reducing the sensitivity of the UPS.

To reduce UPS sensitivity, press the configuration button on the rear panel. Use a pointed object such as a pen to press the button. Press it once to set the UPS’s sensitivity to reduced. Press it again to set the sensitivity to low. Press the button a third time to

reset normal sensitivity.

reduced sensitivity, the LED is dimly lit. When it is

 

set to low sensitivity, the LED is off.

Press and hold the on/test button until the UPS begins beeping.

Release the on/test button during the beeping to start the UPS.
