1.4Operating Modes
The SolaHD S5KC UPS is a true online double-conversion system, having the following operating
modes:
•Normal Mode
• Backup Mode
•Auto Restart Mode
• Bypass Mode
Normal Mode
The power module rectifiers derive power from a utility AC source and supply regulated DC power to
the inverter. The module’s inverter regenerates precise AC power to supply the connected equipment.
The battery charger is in the power module and maintains a float-charge on the batteries of the UPS;
additionally, the optional charger module can also charge the batteries to maintain a quicker
recharge time for long backup time applications.
Backup Mode
When AC utility fails, the connected equipment is supplied power by the inverter, which obtains
energy from the battery modules. The output power will not be interrupted during the failure or
restoration of the AC utility/mains source.
Auto Restart Mode
Product Introduction
After a power outage and complete battery discharge, and once AC utility is restored, the UPS will
automatically restart and resume supplying power to connected equipment. This feature is enabled at
the factory, but can be disabled by the user. The user can also program two auto restart delay settings
from the LCD:
• Battery capacity level (%)
• Countdown timer
Bypass Mode
The bypass provides an alternate path for power to the connected equipment and operates in the
following manner:
• Automatic: In the event of an internal fault or should the inverter overload capacity be exceeded,
the UPS performs an automatic transfer of the connected equipment from the inverter to the
bypass source.
• Manual: Should the UPS need to be taken out of service for limited maintenance or repair,
manual activation of the bypass will cause an immediate transfer of the equipment from the
inverter to the bypass source.
This section provides a general description of each component and its functions. Please review this
section carefully, as it will give you a better understanding of how the UPS operates.
1.5.1UPS Frame

2.5.4Connecting External Battery Cabinet
!
Up to four external battery cabinets may be connected to the SolaHD S5KC Series UPS to provide
longer battery run times.
The external battery cabinet (EBC) requires the use of one of the optional EBC cable kits for
connection to the UPS. The optional cable kits each contain the power and communication cables
required for proper operation and monitoring of the battery modules. The standard cable kit lengths
are 1, 3, and 5 meters (3.2, 9.8 and 16.4 ft.) to accommodate different site installation requirements.
To connect an external battery cabinet:
1. Verify that the EBC DC circuit breaker is open. The circuit breaker is on the front bottom of the
EBC frame behind the bottom two bezels.
2. Connect one end of the battery cable to the external battery connector on the rear of the UPS
frame.
3. Connect the other end to the closest corresponding port on the rear of the EBC frame, as shown in
Figures 42 and 43.
4. Install and tighten the grounding screw on the battery cable assembly, on both the UPS and EBC
ends. This screw also secures the cable assembly to the frames to prevent accidental
disconnection.
5. For new systems that included an EBC, the EBC communication card should already be installed
in the UPS frame (IntelliSlot Port #3, typically). If it is not already in the UPS frame, obtain the
EBC communication card and insert it into any open IntelliSlot port (preferably Port #3). Connect
the provided EBC communication cable to the UPS and EBC as shown in Figures 42 and 43.
6. Check the EBC DIP switch settings on the top rear of each EBC frame. Verify they are set
correctly according to Table 13.
7. Close the EBC DC circuit breaker and replace the bezels back onto the EBC.

visit http://www.solahd.com or contact your local Emerson representative.
3.7LCD Port
The LCD module contains the LCD port, which is used for power and data communication between
the UPS monitor module and display module. The LCD module can be removed from the SolaHD
S5KC and remotely located. A longer Ethernet cable must be used when installing the LCD module
remotely. A standard Ethernet (Category 5, with RJ-45 connectors, both ends meet T568B standard)
type cable can be used. Maximum cable length is 14 meters to ensure proper communication signals
between the UPS and the LCD module.
The user interface module provides three network ports and one USB port. Of those, one network port
(LCD port) is used for power supply and communication of the user interface module. Other network
ports and the USB port are reserved for use only by customer service personnel.

during a battery discharge, the UPS will continue battery mode operation
until it reaches the end of discharge (EOD) setpoint, then will shutdown
output power, whether the AC mains recovers or not.
Allows an alarm to be generated when the bypass is abnormal
Because the slot 2 and the serial port on the rear panel cannot work at the
same time, you must select one of them to work. If ‘INTERFACE2’ is
selected, the slot 2 can communicate; if ‘RS232’ is selected, the serial
port can communicate.
Sets the battery capacity limit of auto restart feature. When AC mains
power returns, the UPS will charge the battery to the specified battery
capacity before enabling output power.
Sets the delay time of auto restart feature. When AC mains power returns,
the UPS will start a countdown timer based upon the setting before
enabling output power.
Users can change the command password to prevent unauthorized user
from changing any user configurable settings. The default password is
1234567. Once the password is changed, the default password is no
longer operational and users are then required to enter the new password
to enter/change any ‘Settings’ or ‘Battery settings’. If the new password is
forgotten, contact your local customer service center for steps to reset the
password back to the factory default.
Sets a maximum load alarm. This item is closely related to ‘Max load
threshold.’
Sets the threshold of maximum load alarm. When the UPS loads exceed
the threshold, and the maximum load alarm is enabled, an alarm will be
generated.This item is closely related to ‘Max load alarm,’ for example, set
this item to 5.0kVA, when the UPS loads exceed 5.0kVA, an alarm will be
generated.
Allows alarm to be generated when the system loses redundant power

additional modules to expand your system or contact authorized your Emerson representative for
replacement modules.
5.3.1Removing Modules
NOTICE
Risk of unintended shutdown. Can cause equipment damage.
Do not remove both the control and the monitor modules at the same time. Removing both the
control module and monitor module at the same time will cause the UPS to shut down and
remove power from the load. Replace these modules one at a time.
1. Remove bezel cover to locate the faulty module. The yellow fault LED will be illuminated on the
faulty module.
NOTE
When removing bezels from a transformer-based UPS, note which have filters and replace
them accordingly. Bezels from the modules will have air filters. There will be no filters on the
bottom three transformer bezels. The transformer has a separate air filter.
For module removal, after unlocking the lever, wait a few seconds to remove the module.
Troubleshooting
If your system does not contain a redundant module, you may need to manually place the UPS
into manual bypass before removing modules to avoid accidental loss of output power for the
connected equipment.
2. The method for removing a module varies depending on the module type. The two methods are as
follows:
• When removing a power, battery or charger module, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove
the fastener (if installed). Then pull out the lock lever slightly and lift up to unlock the
module.
• When removing a system control or system monitor module, use a Phillips screwdriver
to remove the two screws from the securing holes on each end. Then pull out the lock lever
slightly and slide it to the left to unlock the module.
Figure 70 Lever and fastener
3. To pull out a power, charger or battery module:
SOLA HD® S5KC
a. When removing a power module, charger module or battery module: slide it 2/3 of the way out.
It will be stopped by the safety catch.
b. Lift the module up slightly while continuing to pull it out as shown in Figure 71.
c.Support the module and slide it completely out of the unit.
d. When removing a system control or a system monitor module, there is no safety catch because
the modules are lightweight.

WARNING
Risk of heavy unit falling over. Can cause equipment damage, injury or death.
Read all of the instructions before attempting to move the unit, lift it, remove packaging or
prepare the unit for installation.
The UPS presents a tipping hazard. Do not remove more than one module at a time. Failure
to do so may cause unit to tip over and cause serious injury.
5.3.2Replacing the User Interface Module
Replace the User Interface Module only while the SolaHD S5KC is turned On (System Enable switch
On and input power available). If this module is replaced while the UPS is Off, the UPS settings will
be reset to factory defaults when the UPS is powered On with the new User Interface Module
installed.
1. Remove the display bezel on top of the frame.
2. Lift up the user interface module, and put it on top of the UPS frame.
3. Disconnect the network cable from the user interface module.
4. Connect the network cable to the new user interface module.
5. Insert the new user interface module into the clips and replace the display bezel.
