Communications Port

The 1000 Series UPS models include a communications port that allows the UPS to exchange data with the host computer. Power management software (supplied by Compaq) gives users access to status reporting and power management features.

CAUTION: Use only cables supplied by Compaq to connect the communications port to the host computer. Use of standard RS-232 cables may cause equipment damage.

Power Management Software

With each UPS, Compaq supplies a CD containing several power management software applications, to address a variety of installations:

■ Compaq Power Management Software is a comprehens ive Microsoft

Windows-based power management appli cation that is t ightly integrated with Compaq Insight Manager.

■ LanSafe III provides UPS power management capabilities in a network

environment.

Overview 1-7

■ FailSafe III provides UPS power management capabilities in a

standalone computer environment.

■ Compaq OnliNet Centro provides UPS power manageme nt capabilities

in a multi-platform network environment (supplied only with the Compaq SNMP-EN Internal Adapter).

Compaq Power Management Software

Compaq Power Management Software allows system administrators to monitor, and to manage, t he power bei ng supplied to an entire network of servers and wor kstations.

Software capabilities include:

■ Monitoring utility power, and the power supplied by the UPS.

■ Logging events, such as utility power blackouts and brown outs.

■ Prioritizing protected devices.

■ Powering up and pow er i ng d own pr o te cte d de vic es .

For example, if Compaq Power Management Software detects an extended utility power blackout, it will initiate the prioritized shutdown sequence specified by the system administrator.

1-8 Compaq 1000 Series UPS Operation and Reference Guide

This sequence might include:

■ Saving work-in-progress throughout the network.

■ Powering down non-critical devices, to extend the battery power

available to other devices.

■ After savi ng the necessary informatio n, completin g t he orderly de vice

shutdown.

For more information on using Compaq Power Management Software, refer to the Compaq Power Products Software Reference Guide section of the Power Products Doc umentation CD (included with the UPS kit).

Hardware Option Cards

The 1000 Series UPS models include an option slot that will accommodate one of these hardware option cards:

■ Compaq Multi-Server UPS Card (option kit part number 1 23508-B21)

■ Compaq Scala ble UPS Card (opt ion kit part number 123509-B21)

■ Compaq SNMP-EN Internal Adapter (option kit part number

347225-B21)

Compaq Multi-Server UPS Card

A standard UPS can communicate directly with a single host computer. A 1000 Series UPS with the Multi-Server UPS Card installed has expanded communication capability, and can exchange data with up to three host computers.

Compaq Power Management Software enables a single UPS wit h a Multi-Server UPS Card to protect up to three servers. By connecti ng servers to separate load segments, the UPS can provide individual server control.

For example, i f a network inc l udes two servers (with one running Windows NT, and the other running Uni x), a 1000 Serie s U PS with a Multi-Server UPS Card can establish direct communications with each server. Allocate a separate UPS load segment to supply power to each server and to the devi ces associated with that server.

Overview 1-9

Compaq Scalable UPS Card

The Scalable UPS Card makes up to three UPS units appear as a single virtual UPS to the host computer and, wi th Compaq Power Management Software, allows scaling up the level of power protection available to the system.

For example, connecting three T1000 UPS units to a Scalable UPS Card creates a virtual 3000VA UPS. Since the T1000 UPS units each have two load segments, the virtual UPS will have six independently controlled load segments.

However, no single load can be greater than the lowest rated UPS. For instance, connecting three 1KVA UPS units with a Scalable UPS Card could not support a single 1200VA load.

Compaq SNMP-EN Internal Adapter

In a network environment, the SNMP-EN I nt ernal Adapter provides a user interface, allowing communication between the UPS and the server (when the SNMP-based power management software, Compaq OnliNet Centro, is installed). For workstations or other pe ripheral equipment that cannot be interrupted by a network mana gement system, a UPS with the SNMP -EN Internal Adapter option installed can also provide a power management solution.

Using the SNMP-EN Internal Adapter SNMP communication interface, system administrators can quickly ascertain if power-related problems exist anywhere on the network. A Compaq UPS, connected by the SNMP-EN Internal Adapter to power management software, can virtually el iminate costly downtime due to power outages or surges, and decrea se day-to-day network management annoyances like spontaneous rebooti ng, lost files a nd corrupted

data—issues resulting from inconsisten t power. Compaq OnliNet Centro software is a versatile application that can schedule

network component shutdowns or, in case of a utility power outa ge, perform graceful, sequential shutdown of network components.

1-10 Compaq 1000 Series UPS Operation and Reference Guide

Network Transient Protector

The 1000 Series tower UPS models include a Network Transient Protector that provides protection for communicati ons equipment (such as network devices, a fax machine, or a modem) from surges.

CAUTION: To avoid damaging the equipment, do not connect the Network Transient Protector to a digital PBX line. Connect either to an analog phone line or to a network.

Remote Emergency Power Off (REPO) Port

The 1000 Series rack-mountable UPS models include a Remote Emergency Power Off (REPO) port. The REPO feature allows the UPS to be shut down from a remote location. To use this feature, the REPO port must be connected to a remote, normally open switch (not supplied). When this switch is closed, the UPS immediately disconnects power from its load segments.

To shut down the entire network in the event of an emergency, the REPO ports of multiple UPS units can be connected to a single switch.

IMPORTANT: The REPO port meets the requirements of NFPA Articles 645-10 and 645-11 for a Disconnecting Means.

IMPORTANT:

■ If the remote switch is closed, the REPO feature shuts down protected devices

immediately and does not utilize the orderly shutdown procedure initiated by Compaq Power Management Software.

■ The REPO feature shuts down UPS units operating under either utility or

battery power.

■ If the UPS was operating on battery power when the remote switch was closed, no

power will be available to the devices until utility power is restored.

Warranties

$25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee

To back up the wide range of features offe red with the UPS, Compaq provides a three-year limited warranty. In addition, Compaq offers a $25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee (provided by the original equipment manufacturer).

IMPORTANT: The warranty card supplied with the UPS must be filled in and returned to qualify for the $25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee.

The $25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee only applies if:

transient), misuse, or abuse.

Pre-Failure Battery Warranty

The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty, standard on all Compaq Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) units, extends the advantage of a Compaq three-year limited warranty by applying it to the battery before it actually fails. Specifically, the Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that when customers receive notification from Compaq Power Management Software that the battery ma y fail, the battery is replaced free of charge under the warranty.

Compaq maintains the highest standards in the industry, as evidenced by the Compaq Pre-Failure Battery Warranty. The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty is beneficial in at least two significant ways:

■ Reduced total cost of ownership

■ Reduced downtime

Connecting the UPS to Utility Power

Connect the UPS to a grounded utility power outlet.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment, take these precautions:

■ Plug the input line cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is

installed near the equipment and is easily accessible.

■ Do not disable the grounding plug on the input line cord. The grounding

plug is an important safety feature.

■ Do not use extension cords.

2-10 Compaq 1000 Series UPS Operation and Reference Guide

Connecting Devices to the UPS

Before connecting devices, verify that the UPS will not overload by ma ki ng sure that the total VA rating of the devices (the load) does not exceed the VA rating of the U PS.

Volts x Amps = V A per device

If the devices list the power in Watts, use the following conversion equation:

Watts x 1.35 = VA VA/1000 = KVA

You may use RackBuilder Pro as an alternate conversion tool. RackBuilder Pro may also be obtained from the Compaq we bsite:

http://www.compaq.com

After verifying that the UPS will not overload, connect the power cords f r om the devices to the appropriate output receptacles of the UPS.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock, the combined earth conductor leakage current from all connected devices must not exceed 3.5 mA.

CAUTION: Do not plug laser printers into the UPS. The instantaneous current drawn by this type of printer may overload the UPS.

Powering up the UPS

When the unit is plugged in for the first time, the UPS automatically initiates a self-test. The front panel LED display lights will go on and off during the self-test. If the self-test is completed successfully, the UPS enters Standby mode.

NOTE: The self-test initiates when the UPS is plugged in for the first time. Afterward, when the UPS is disconnected from utility power, the unit will come back up in the mode it was in when utility power was lost.

To match the utility voltage, the UPS operating range can be modified in two ways:

■ If the utility voltage differs from the currently configured nominal

voltage, but stays within a ±20 percent band (see Fig 4-5) , consider shifting the nominal voltage parameter selection to match the measured utility voltage range.

■ If the utility voltage frequently varies outside the UPS operating range

■ Charging batter ie s

■ When to replace batteries

■ Pre-Failure Battery Warranty

■ Obtaining new batter ie s

■ Replacing batteries

■ Care and storage of batteries

5-2 Compaq 1000 Series UPS Operation and Reference Guide

Precautions

WARNING: There is a risk of personal injury from the hazardous energy levels

associated with UPS batteries. The maintenance and replacement of batteries must be carried out by qualified service personnel.

Replace the batteries with the Compaq spare designated for the UPS. Spare battery kit part numbers are:

■ 1000 models - 295460-001

■ 1500 tower models - 340795-001

■ 1500 rack-mountable models - 295463-001

WARNING: The UPS contains sealed lead-acid batteries. To reduce the risk of fire or chemical burns take the following precautions:

■ Do not attempt to recharge batteries after removal from the UPS.

■ Do not disassemble, crush, or puncture the batteries.

■ Do not short the external contacts of the batteries.

■ Do not immerse the batteries in water.

■ Do not expose to temperatures higher than 60°C.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hazardous energy, take these precautions:

■ Remove watches, rings, or other metal objects.

■ Use tools with insulated handles.

WARNING: The 1000 Series rack-mountable UPS models weigh approximately 58 lb (26 kg). Make sure that the rack containing the UPS is stable. The following conditions must be met:

■ The leveling feet are extended to the floor.

■ The full weight of the rack rests on the leveling feet.

■ The stabilizing feet are attached to the rack, if it is a single rack

installation.

■ The racks are coupled together in multiple rack installations.

■ A rack may become unstable if more than one component is extended.

Extend only one component at a time.

IMPORTANT: Before handling a tower UPS, make sure that the UPS is on a flat, stable surface.

Charging Batteries

The Compaq 1000 Series UPS models automatically charge the batteries when connected to utility power. No user interve nti on is required while the UPS is in use.

■ For information on charging the batteries when installing the UPS, see

“Completing the Installation” in Chapter 2, “Installation.”

■ For information on keepin g the batteries charged while the UPS is in

extended storage, see “Care and Storage of Batteries” in this chapter.

When to Replace Batteries

When the Battery Service indicator (LED 10) turns red, batteries may need to be replaced within 30 to 60 day s .

NOTE: If the audio alarm parameter is enabled, the Battery Service indicator will be accompanied by an audio alarm.

Battery Maintenance 5-3

Figure 5-2. Battery Service indicator (LED 10-rack-mountable models)

Battery Service indicator (LED 10)

Verify that battery replacement is required by initiating a UPS self-test. If LED 10 remains red, replace the batteries.

NOTE: Depending on usage and environmental conditions, the batteries should last three to six years.

For information on initiating a self-tes t, see Chapter 3, “Operation.”

Pre-Failure Battery Warranty

The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty, standard on all Compaq Uninterruptible Power System (UPS) units, extends the advantage of a Compaq three-year limited warranty by applying it t o the battery before it actually fails. Specifically, the Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that when customers receive notification from Compaq Power Management Software that the battery may fail, the battery is replaced free of charge under the warr anty.

Compaq maintains the highest standards in the industry, as evidenced by the Compaq Pre-Failure Battery Warranty. The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty is beneficial in at least two significant ways:

■ Reduced total c ost of ownership

■ Reduced downtime

Obtaining New Batteries

Compaq supplies spare battery packs for 1000 Series UPS models. Obtai n spare batteries for the UPS when the Battery Service indicator (LED 10) illuminates, meaning that new batteries may be required within 30 t o 60 days.

The 1000 Series UPS spare battery kit part numbers are:

■ 1000 models - 295460-001

■ 1500 tower models - 340795-001

■ 1500 rack-mountable models - 295463-001

IMPORTANT: Compaq recommends that an inventory of spare batteries not be maintained onsite unless a procedure to keep these batteries charged while in storage is implemented.

For information on the Battery Ser vice LED function, see Chapter 3,

“Operation.”

Replacing Batteries

Battery Maintenance 5-5

There are two options for replacing UPS batteries:

■ Powering off the UPS before removing the batteries

■ In certain circumstances, hot-swapping the batteries without powering

off the UPS

CAUTION: While hot-swapping batteries, there is no protection in the event of a utility power failure.

Step 1: Preparing the UPS

To replace batteries with the UPS Off

Shut down all load devices.

Press the STANDBY button to take the UPS out of Operate mode. The

ON LED extinguishes, and power to the load receptacles ceases. Disconnect the UPS from utility power.

Wait at least 60 seconds, while the UPS internal circuitry discharges.

5-6 Compaq 1000 Series UPS Operation and Reference Guide

To replace batteries with the UPS in Operate mode (hot-swapping)

Batteries may be replaced (hot-swapped) without powering off the UPS if both of the following conditions are met:

■ The UPS is not cha rging the batteries (Battery Char ge LEDs 6, 7, and 8

are all green, indicating that the batteries are fully charged).

NOTE: Older batteries may be fully charged but still incapable of providing adequate backup for devices. Therefore, the battery charge LEDs can indicate the batteries are fully charged, while the UPS diagnostics have determined that the batteries need to be replaced.

■ The UPS is not su pplying battery pow er to devices (AC Input LEDs 1

and 4 are green, indicating that the UPS is supplying utilit y power).

Step 2: Removing the Battery Pack

To remove the battery packs, select the appropriate instructions for your

model’s config uration. The tower and rack-mo untable model sections follow.

Tower Models

Follow this procedure to remove the battery pack:

Detach the faceplate to obtain access to the battery pack. Grip the front

panel at the recesses on the sides (approximately 1 inch below the top corners), and pull lightly to free the upper mounting prongs from the upper attachme nt slots. Allow the front panel to rotate downward to fre e the lower mounti ng prongs from the lower attachment slots.

CAUTION: To avoid damaging the faceplate circuit board, reattach the faceplate while performing battery maintenance.

NOTE: Moving the UPS to the edge of the work surface facilitates detaching the faceplate. After removing the faceplate, the UPS must be moved back onto the work surface, at least 10 inches, to accommodate the battery removal procedure.

Step 5: Disposing of Used Batteries

The spare battery kit includes the instructions and packaging required to return used batteries to the appropriate location for disposal.

Do not dispose of used batteries with general office or household waste. Return the used module for proper disposal to either:

■ Compaq, authorized Compaq Partners, or their agents.

■ A recycling center that meets all local environmental

standards.

Care and Storage of Batteries

To maximize the life of batteries:

■ Minimize the amount of time the UPS uses battery power by matching

UPS configuration with utilit y voltage. For more information, see

Chapter 4, “Configuration.”

■ Keep the area around the UPS clean and dust-free. If the environment is

very dusty, clean the outside of the UPS regularly with a vacuum cleaner.

■ Maintain the ambient temperature at 25

■ If storing a UPS for an extended period, recharge the batteries every six

months:

Connect the UPS to utility power.

Allow the UPS to remain in Standby mode.

Allow the UPS to charge the batteries for 24 hours.

Regulatory Compliance Notices

Federal Communications Commission Notice

Part 15 of the Federal Communic ations Commi ssion (FCC) Rules and Regulations has established Radio Frequency (RF) emission limits to provide an interference-free radio frequency spectrum. Many electronic devices, including computers, generate RF energy incidental to their intended function and are, therefore, covered by these rules. These rules place computers and related peripheral devices into two classes, A and B, depending upon their intended installation. Class A devices are those that may reasonably be expected to be installed in a business or commercial environment. Class B devices are those that may reasonably be expected to be installed in a residential environment (that is, personal computers). The FCC requires devices in both classes to bear a label indicating the int erference potential of the device as well as additional operating instructions for the user.

Appendix

The rating label on the device shows which class (A or B) the equipment falls into. Class B devices have an FCC logo or FCC ID on the label. Class A devices do not have an FCC logo or FCC ID on the label. Once the class of the device is determined, refer to the following corresponding statement.
