2-2 Theory of Operation

The

Regulator PRO

™

NetUPS

Series is a line-interactive UPS with Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) that provides clean and reliable AC power to the computer system through the input and output EMI filter, surge suppressor and line-conditioning transformer (autotransformer) that can boost or buck-down line voltage according to the AC input voltage amplitude.

In normal condition, the UPS supplies power from the utility power to the load (computer system, workstation, server or other device). The bilateral converter works as a charger to charge the battery and at the same time keeps the battery fully charged. This term is called "ON UTILITY MODE".

When utility power fails, the converter supplies AC power to the load by transferring power coming from the batteries. This term is called "ON BATTERY MODE". The UPS supplies regulated power, shutdown results when battery power becomes low.

BLOCK DIAGRAM OF LINE INTERACTIVE UPS

2-3 Features Intelligent Boost and Intelligent Buck-Down Line-Conditioning

When brownout or over utility voltage is detected, the boost and buck-down line-conditioning will automatically adjust the incoming voltage and deliver a regulated AC power to the equipment connected to the UPS.

P73335u_UPS_man.qxd 4/30/01 12:19 PM Page 11

Operation (continued)

4-6 Load Level Display

The 4-LED load percentage display shows the power level (20%, 40%, 60%, 80%) drawn by the loads from the UPS. If the UPS is overloaded, the OVERLOAD LED will light.

4-7 Battery Level Display

This display shows the battery capacity left in the battery. The level is represented by percentages of 25, 50, 75, and 100. These LED will extinguish gradually when using battery power. When battery capacity reaches the minimal level of 25%, the lowest LED (25%) blinks and there is an immediate need to charge the battery. Under this condition, the battery can only supply less than five minutes of run time for the load.

4-8 If certain abnormal conditions occur, the UPS will send the

following messages:

ON BATTERY MODE: When the UPS is in ON BATTERY MODE, the ON BATTERY LED will light, preceded by a beep every two seconds, and then the UPS will start supplying power to the load through the battery.

P73335u_UPS_man.qxd 4/30/01 12:19 PM Page 12

OVERLOAD:

If an overload occurs, the OVERLOAD LED will light and a continuous beep will be heard. Under this condition, check the load conn

ected to

the UPS.

BUCK/BOOST:

If the UPS encounters a high utility voltage, the function of the buck is to automatically curtail this voltage to a normal level. In the case that the UPS should come upon a low utility voltage, the boost will raise the voltage to a normal level. These two functions are represented by their respective LED on the front panel.

BATTERY REPLACE:

This function is to alert users of the need to replace the batteries. When the microprocessor in the UPS detects battery fault, the UPS alarm will give out three beeps. Each beep lasts for 0.5 seconds and interrupted by an interval of 0.5 seconds. After the initial three beeps, the alarm will continue to sound every one hour.

Operation (continued)

P73335u_UPS_man.qxd 4/30/01 12:19 PM Page 13

BATTERY LOW:

This function is to inform users of the remaining power capacity of the batteries. When batteries reach a low-level condition, the UPS alarm will beep once every second and the LED on the 25% level will flash.

SHORT CIRCUIT:

When a short occurs in an ON UTILITY MODE, the UPS will shift to ON BATTERY MODE. If the short persists, the UPS will stop providing power to loads, alarms will sound continuously and the OVERLOAD LED will light.
