TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY
he Digital Technology (GT) Series Continuous Power System (CPS) is a revolutionary new concept in total power protection and
T
management. The GT Series is a microprocessor-based UPS that now allows the user to set most of the control feature parameters. By directly linking a personal computer to the GT Series RS232 port, frequency settings and operation, alarm signals, load switching, fan operation, etc. can all be programmed to meet specific application requirements.
The GT Series is a true on-line, continuous power UPS. In the tradition of Clary products, the GT Series generates the same high quality and proven reliability to provide the best power protection available for today’s critical applications.
In keeping with state-of-the-art design, the power electronics are completely governed by an on-board microprocessor. Given the powerful memory capability of today’s microcontrollers, this microprocessor has evolved the UPS into an all-in­one complete power distribution and monitoring center. Not only is your critical load insured of the most reliable and constant power available, but the user may now continuously track status of the supply components that keep the entire system operational. Production downtime can now be virtually eliminated by knowing exactly what patterns the supply utility power maintains and by knowing exactly the condition and life expectancy of the battery reserve.
Reference the block diagram for a simplified explanation of the system’s operation. The AC utility source is connected to the power and micro­electronics when the input switch is closed. The input line is filtered, power factor corrected and rectified for enhanced performance without disturbing other equipment that may share the same utility circuit. In GT units, a step-down, input isolation transformer is added to accept a wide range of input voltages for global applications. Output transformers, SNMP adapters and many other options are available.
The microprocessor controls an Inverter Generator that produces a low harmonic, AC sinewave for continuous power applications.
When the input AC utility line fails, the battery circuit within this system takes over to ensure continuous power. Only after properly rated power is returned, does the microprocessor reconnect the input source back into the system.
The microprocessor is directly tied to an external RS232 connector port. This allows the user to monitor and even set some of the operating parameters. With a simple link to a personal computer using the DT-UPS2 software program, you can actually view, on your monitor, the event history of the power distribution system with the GT Series unit as the central hub. More sophisticated users may implement the optional SNMP package to accomplish full Network Power Management.

Visual indicators used on the front panel are long lasting, very efficient, light emitting diodes (LED). When operating the push-button switches, always hold the switch in for at least two seconds to insure function confirmation. This feature has been implemented into the system design to avoid inadvertent operation of any of the user-available functions.
The rear panel has been engineered with the user’s multiple applications in mind. In some models, two of the output receptacles have been rotated to allow attachment of a plug-in transformer without hanging over the back of the unit or interfering with another outlet. Two load outputs are provided with two or three receptacles per output. The outputs can be independently switched on or off.

SUMMARY OF INDICATORS AND CONTROLS
SYSTEM POWER SWITCH - The main control
switch that engages utility power to the entire unit. By activating this switch it initializes normal operation.
AC In - The utility input indicator that identifies status of the line voltage. If the line voltage is within the specified range, it will remain lit. If the AC input is out of range, this indicator will flash in 1 to 2 second intervals.
Inverter - This indicator identifies the status of the regenerated, conditioned protected output power. This indicator will stay ON as long as protected power is available from the power inverter generator.
Battery Level - This is the battery status bar graph. During normal operation, this bar graph will show the charging of the battery; all indicators lit will represent a fully charged battery. During battery operation, this bar graph represents a discharge meter indicating less battery time available as each light goes OFF.
Load Level - This is the system output capacity status bar. The number of lights on the graph indicate an approximate percentage of system full load. All lights being ON would indicate full load.
Cold Start - A momentary push-button switch to activate the system in the event no utility power is available. The system will be allowed to start up by using power from its internal battery. Depress this switch, the indicator above it will light, and hold it in until the audible alarm beeps once. The system will maintain a load depending upon the condition of the battery.
Load I - A momentary push-button switch that toggles the output LOAD I AC output terminals at the rear panel. Unless the unit is powered up using the Cold Start switch, the output load will normally be connected to the inverter generator output. The indicator above the switch will be ON to represent this. Depressing the switch can disconnect the output. While the switch is depressed, the indicator will blink to represent transition. Once the indicator stops blinking, the switch can be released for a successful transition.
Load II - A momentary push-button switch that works identical to LOAD I except it corresponds to the LOAD II AC output terminals at the rear panel.
SNMP – (Optional) A slot available to install an interface card to provide system network management.
Alarm Silent/Test - A momentary push-button switch that controls two different functions depending on the mode of operation. In the normal mode of operation, if this switch is depressed and held in, the above indicator will blink. Once it stops blinking, the unit will perform an internal 1 to 2 minute battery check. Once the test is completed, if the battery is below standards, the system will indicate that the battery needs replacing. The system will not run this battery test unless the battery is detected to be fully charged. During battery or abnormal operation, an audible alarm will accompany this mode. By depressing this switch, the adjacent indicator will blink. When it stops blinking, the alarm will be silenced. Once the fault or reason for the alarm is corrected, this audible alarm condition will automatically reset. The audible alarm can be re-enabled during abnormal conditions by pressing and holding the switch again.
NOTE - All switches must be held in for at least two seconds to engage their function. This is to prevent any inadvertent switch operation.
!
Alarm - This is a fault indicator that will light in the event that the inverter generator is non-operable. This could be due to an overtemperature situation or an inverter malfunction.
INPUT – An IEC inlet is provided for universal input cord connections.
FUSE – The power protection device for the input circuitry.
DC INPUT - The auxiliary battery input connector to add optional batteries for extended backup time.
120VAC OUTPUT (Load I & Load II) - The output groupings that can be independently controlled by the corresponding front panel switch. During normal operation, inverter generator power is supplied at these outlets. Three separate hardwire circuits have been provided. They are individually protected by circuit breakers.
SIGNAL - A DB-9 subminiature, female connector that outputs the open-collector signal contacts that generate a low state during utility interrupt, low battery and inverter off conditions.
RS232 - A DB-9 subminiature, female connector that outputs true RS232 computer communications signals.
IDENTIFICATION LABEL - The model number and
!
serial number of the system is located here. This label is located on the underside of the unit Always refer to this information when corresponding with the factory.

INSTALLATION
f the unit is to be stored, it is recommended to refresh the internal battery at least once every 90 days. To do this, plug the system in, position the
I
power On/Off switch to "ON" and allow the unit to
idle for at least 24 hours. The GT unit is designed for installation in a
protected environment. Some important points to consider when positioning a unit for operation:
A properly rated (preferably dedicated) outlet is
accessible for the six-foot power cord, supplied with the unit. It is not recommended to modify the supplied cord in any way nor should an extension cord of any kind be used.
The cord paths in the system installation should
remain clear of foot traffic or anything else that may disturb permanent connection.
The installation site should maintain an ambient air
temperature of less than 104
o
F (40oC). When the
environment for the system remains cooler during operation, there is less stress on the batteries and the internal electronics.
The air inlets, vents and fan should not be
obstructed or blocked in any way. The more breathing space the system has, the cooler it operates.
The air should remain free from excessive dust
and chemical fumes.
Once a location has been selected and the unit is installed, it is ready for operation.
Allow at least 8 hours, after the system is first installed, to fully charge the internal battery to a maximum state.

OPERATION
THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY
nce the system has been properly installed, it is ready to operate. The following
O
power and also how to start-up with no AC power available.
Normal Operation on AC Start-Up:
• Verify that the unit is plugged into properly rated
• Position the System Power Switch to the ON
The system will proceed through about a three­second diagnostic where all the lights will sequence ON then OFF. The AC IN light will flash several times and the audible alarm will give a short burst. The AC IN light will then stay ON and the battery level meter will light to at least an 80% level. The INVERTER light will come ON. and power will be available at all the output receptacles. The LOAD I and LOAD II will come ON.
Actual load may be connected at any time during this procedure, however, power is only available when the light above either of the LOAD switches is ON continuously.
Battery Operation after AC Start-Up:
• Unplug the unit from the standard wall outlet. The AC ON light will flash at two to three second
intervals. Within 5 seconds, the audible alarm will sound at half-second intervals.
• Push and hold in the ALARM SILENT/TEST
If operation were to continue in this mode, the BATTERY LEVEL meter would start to turn OFF, one light at a time starting from the top. Once the last light is left and the preprogrammed battery availability time (usually about 2 minutes) is reached, the alarm will sound in a constant tone. Had the alarm been previously silenced, it would still re-enable to alert the user of limited operation. This alarm can also be silenced as before. If the unit is allowed to operate further, it will time out and shut off completely. If power were to return, the unit will automatically restart and return to the condition it was in at the moment it went into Battery Mode.
DC Start Operation (Cold Start)
If no utility power is available at the time backup power is required; the unit may be started to accomplish abbreviated tasks. The limitations of the battery prevent extended operations at full load.
• Position the System Power Switch to the ON

position.
• Push and hold in the COLD START switch until the audible alarm beeps.
The unit will start up similarly to normal AC start-up except the AC IN LED will continue to flash. The LOAD outputs will come up in the OFF mode when using the COLD START feature.
Loading the System
The system can be loaded up to full rated load. As load is applied, the LOAD METER will start to turn ON. Once full load is achieved, the full LOAD METER should be lit. As additional load is applied, the top red OVERLOAD LED will come ON. If too much overload is applied, the audible alarm will sound. If this increased load is not removed within five seconds, the unit will discontinue output operation and latch into an alarm condition. The audible alarm will continue to sound and the ALARM LED will light. Reducing the load and cycling the System Power Switch OFF then ON can reset the system.
Programming the Outputs:
The outputs on startup can be programmed ON or OFF. The default mode is programmed to turn both
load circuits ON whenever you power up the UPS on AC startup. They will stay energized until you turn OFF the UPS, the batteries run down during a power outage or if the appropriate load button is pressed.
To program both loads to be OFF when the UPS is turned ON:
• Turn the UPS OFF
• Turn the UPS ON while pressing and holding the
ALARM SILENT/TEST switch.
• The UPS will come ON with both loads OFF and will remember this setting each time the unit is turned ON.
To program both loads to come ON:
• Turn the UPS OFF.
• Turn the UPS ON while pressing and holding
both LOAD I and LOAD II switches (this definitely requires both hands). The UPS will remember this combination the next time it is powered ON.
To program LOAD I or LOAD II to come ON individually at startup:
• Turn the UPS OFF.
• Turn the UPS ON while pressing and holding
either LOAD I or LOAD II switches.
The UPS will remember this combination the next time it is powered ON.

SIGNALS AND INTERFACING
t the rear of the unit are two DB-9 subminiature, female connectors. These are provided for communications links to a computer or sophisticated monitoring device.
SIGNAL provides open-collector outputs that typically signal Utility Interrupt and Low Battery conditions. A system shutdown feature is also available on this port. Applying a short between Pin 6 and Pin 7 will cause the system to shutdown in battery mode. This conserves the battery life once
an orderly shutdown has been accomplished. The system may be configured to shutdown by applying a +5 to +12V signal across the appropriate pins. Contact the factory for configuration details.
RS232 is a true computer communications signal port.
The open-collector signal outputs can be converted to dry contact closures, as an option. Below is the pin out of the two connectors with their default assignments:
