SG Series UPS - Overview
True Regenerative On-Line Design
As new and innovative technologies have become the backbone of today's businesses, maximum system availability is critical and downtime is more expensive than ever. Increasingly, businesses need a UPS that not only protects against blackouts, but also virtually eliminates more
frequent and subtle power disturbances. Surges, sags, line noise and brownouts can disrupt
proper operation of sensitive equipment. These disturbances may also create unnecessary production, service, and data recovery costs.
A True Regenerative On-Line UPS provides the highest level of protection against the widest
spectrum of power problems. The incoming AC utility source is converted to a regulated DC
voltage. From this DC voltage, a new AC voltage is regenerated, providing continuous, clean,
tightly regulated power to your equipment. Line-interactive and Off-line designs leave your equipment connected directly to dirty utility power. They only provide minimal transient, voltage and
backup protection. If your equipment operation is "Mission Critical", a true double conversion
On-Line UPS, such as Falcon
®
Electric's SG SeriesTMUPS Plus®, is the only clear choice.
Input Power Factor Correction
All SG Series UPS Plus models include state-of-the-art Input Power Factor Correction. This
greatly reduces the amount of current demanded from your building wiring system, yielding a
highly efficient, "building friendly" UPS.
Microprocessor Control
Falcon Electric's SG Series UPS incorporates advanced microprocessor technology. This technology makes possible a high level of internal UPS control and management. With the supplied
UPSILON
®
software, all SG Series UPS models support unattended shutdown, management,
data logging, and self-diagnostics. The software supports MS Windows
®
95, 98, NT, 2000, 2000
Server, ME, XP, Novell Netware®5 & 6, LINUX and FreeBSD. UPSILON for UNIX supports most
popular UNIX platforms and OS versions.
SNMP/HTTP Remote Management Support
Our SNMP/HTTP Agent board provides remote management and monitoring over any Ethernet
LAN, WAN or the Internet utilizing a 10BaseT-type connection. The optional SNMP/HTTP agent
installs via an option slot located behind a cover plate on the back panel of every SG Series
model.
Extended Battery Bank Option
All SG Series models have a continuous duty inverter and support the addition of optional external battery/charger packs. Whether your application requires a few additional minutes or hours,
the SG Series will be ready. Falcon also offers optional battery charger upgrades for faster
recharging. Please specify your extended battery and charger requirements at the time of your
initial order.
Frequency Converter Option
With a factory modification at the time of order, any SG Series model can be configured for use
as an international frequency converter. This makes the SG Series UPS Plus an ideal choice for
worldwide power applications. Without this modification, all SG series models will detect the
incoming utility line frequency and automatically set its output frequency to match.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Verify the following is included in the UPS shipping carton:
(1) UPS, (1) Software Diskette(s) & Manual, (1) Power Cord (800VA-1KVA models only),
(1) Owners Manual & (1) UPS/Computer Cable.
2. Verify the UPS unit is configured for the proper input/output voltage and frequency. This
information is stated on the nameplate label located on the rear or the side panel of the
unit. If any special input plug and output receptacle configurations were specified at the
time of order, verify for proper configuration.
3. Set the Dip switches located on the UPS rear panel for the nominal UPS output
voltage desired. See the dip switch setting tables located on page 6.
In most cases the nominal UPS output voltage should be set to match the incoming utility
voltage. This will assure a close matching voltage in the event the UPS is placed on
bypass. NOTE: Disregard the "ON" marking on the side of the actual dip switch
housing; use the tables in this manual or the silkscreen on the UPS rear panel only.
Dip switch 3 "enables" or "disables” the "Green Mode" function. The UPS is shipped
from the factory with the switch set in the "disabled" position (up). If SW3 is switched
down or to the "enabled" position, the Green Mode function is activated. When the
load connected to the output of the UPS drops to under 10% of the full rated UPS output
for 30 seconds, the UPS is automatically placed into bypass and the inverter is turned off.
NO BATTERY BACKUP IS PROVIDED AFTER THE GREEN MODE HAS ACTIVATED.
Dip switch settings must be made while the UPS is turned off. Any changes made while
the UPS is turned on will not take effect until the UPS is turn off and back on again since
the switch settings are read by the microprocessor only during initial UPS power up
.
4. To prevent accelerated battery discharge during shipment, the 1-3Kva models have had
the battery fuse removed. INSTALL THE BATTERY FUSE PRIOR TO TURNING ON THE
UPS INPUT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR PLUGGING IN THE UPS. Apopping sound may be
heard, which is normal.
NEVER REMOVE THE BATTERY FUSE OR TURN THE BATTERY CIRCUIT BREAKER
OFF WHILE THE UPS AC CIRCUIT BREAKER IS TURNED ON AND OPERATING
FROM THE UTILITY VOLTAGE OR UPS DAMAGE WILL RESULT. UPS MUST BE
COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN PRIOR TO DISABLING THE INTERNAL BATTERY
SUPPLY.
In the event this UPS is to be turned off or stored for more than two weeks, the battery
fuse must be removed to prevent battery discharge. If placed in long-term storage, every
four months the UPS must be plugged in and turned on for 24 hours to allow the batteries
to recharge and prevent battery damage. Failure to follow these procedures will invalidate
your warranty.
CAUTION
CAUTION

5. For SG800 - SG1K models, connect the power cord to the UPS inlet located on the
UPS rear panel. On SG1.5K - SG3K models the line cord is permanently attached to
the UPS.
6. Select a suitable location for the UPS near enough to the computer or equipment to
to be protected. Connect the power cord(s) for the equipment to be protected to the
UPS output receptacles.
VERIFY THE TABLE OR SURFACE SUPPORTING THE UPS WILL SUPPORT THE
WEIGHT OF THE UPS AND ANY OPTIONAL EXTENDED BATTERY BANKS.
800VA-1KVA UPS MODELS = 33 lbs. (14.9 kg)
1.5KVA- 2KVA UPS MODELS = 68.4 lbs. (31 kg)
3KVA UPS MODELS = 81.4 lbs. (37 kg)
MINI-TOWER EXTENDED BATTERY BANKS = 123 lbs. (55.8 kg) MAX. (EACH BANK)
FLOOR STANDING EXTENDED BATTERY BANKS = 363 lbs. (165 kg) MAX. (EACH BANK)
7. If extended battery banks are to be connected to the UPS, please refer to page 8 for
further instructions.
8. If unattended computer shutdown and monitoring are desired, connect the green
UPS/Computer cable to the DB-9 connector located on the UPS rear panel. Then
install the shutdown and monitoring software provided with the UPS. For your
reference, UNIX shutdown and monitoring software is available from Falcon Electric
at an additional cost.
9. Verify the location selected has adequate ventilation to allow for the proper cooling of
the UPS.
DO NOT BLOCK UPS FANS OR AIR VENTS. THE UPS MUST NOT BE
INSTALLED IN AN ENCLOSED AREA.
11. Plug the UPS power cord into the nearest grounded wall outlet. SG1K-2T 208-240V
models will automatically turn on Since they do not have an input circuit
breaker. For all other SG models, go to step 12.
12. Turn the input circuit breaker located on the UPS rear panel to the “on” position. The
internal UPS fan and front panel "line" indicator should turn on, followed by the
"bypass" LED, and after several seconds, the "inverter" LED.
13. Turn on the connected equipment and verify the UPS does not go into overload by
observing the front panel load indicator LEDs.
14. The UPS, optional external battery bank(s) and additional chargers should be plugged
in and turned on for 24 hours to charge the batteries. During this initial 24 hour
charging period, battery backup time may be substantially reduced.
TO TURN OFF THE UPS, SWITCH OFF THE INPUT CIRCUIT BREAKER
LOCATED ON THE UPS REAR PANEL AND PRESS THE ON/OFF
BUTTON LOCATED ON THE UPS FRONT PANEL UNTIL THE UPS BEEPS.
THE UPS WILL RUN FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND SHUTDOWN. DO NOT
PRESS THE ON/OFF BUTTON OR TURN THE CIRCUIT BREAKER ON AGAIN
DURING THE SHUTDOWN PROCESS OR THE UPS WILL GO TO AN ALARM
CONDITION, WARNING THAT THE UPS WAS NOT SHUTDOWN PROPERLY.
SHOULD THIS OCCUR, TURN OFF THE INPUT CIRCUIT BREAKER AGAIN AND
WAIT UNTIL THE UPS SHUTS DOWN.
