THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY
INTRODUCTION
ongratulations! You have selected the
highest quality protection for your continuous
C
power needs. This unit offers a quiet and
compact package with superior performance
you can depend on. You now own a CMN SERIES
Continuous Power System (CPS) which is an all
Digital Technology (DT) product manufactured by
Clary Corporation, the first name in uninterruptible
power system (UPS) reliability. The Continuous
Power System is the highest order in the hierarchy
of UPS products. When power problems occur,
there can be no compromising the reliability of your
power solution. The CMN SERIES Continuous
Power System is your complete
power solution.
This Owners’s Operating Manual is provided with
your new CMN SERIES unit. It will enhance your
understanding of the product and its functions.
Read this handbook carefully in the order it is
presented prior to operating your unit. This will
save you time and effort in your installation and
application. The illustrations provided will familiarize
you with this product’s operating modes and
components. Always operate the unit within the
guidelines and specifications provided to maximize
safety and the lifetime of the unit. Also, your
understanding of the product is a key element in
getting the most out of your CMN SERIES.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS,
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This symbol indicates that
dangerous voltage constituting
a risk of electrical shock is
present within the unit.
This manual contains important safety instructions that should be followed during installation and maintenance of
the UPS and batteries. Be aware of the following symbols and their meaning as they appear throughout the
manual:
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if
not installed and used properly in strict accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and
television reception. All units in this manual have been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in
accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC
Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection
against such interference in a commercial installation. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference
to radio and television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
This symbol indicates that there
are important operating and
maintenance instructions in the
literature accompanying this
!
unit.
CAUTION
RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK DO NOT OPEN
Reorient the receiving antenna.
Relocate the UPS with respect to the receiver.
Move the UPS away from the receiver.
Plug the UPS into a different outlet so that the UPS and
receiver are on different branch circuits.
If necessary, the user should consult the dealer or an experienced
radio/television technician for additional suggestions. The user
may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal
Communications Commission helpful:
"How To Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems"
This booklet is available from the U.S. Government Printing
Office, Washington, DC 20402, Stock No. 004000003454.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
THE CONTINUOUS POWER COMPANY
he Digital Technology-High Temperature
CMN Series Continuous Power System (CPS)
T
is a revolutionary new concept in total power
protection and management. The CMN
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 RS232 port, frequency settings and operation,
alarm signals, load switching, etc. can all be
programmed to meet specific application
requirements.
The CMN SERIES is a true on-line, continuous
power UPS. In the tradition of Clary products, the
CMN 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 micro controllers, 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 micro
electronics 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.
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 until 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 UPS software program, you can
actually view, on your monitor, the event history of
the power distribution system with the
CMN SERIES unit as the central hub. More
sophisticated users may implement the optional
SNMP package to accomplish full Network Power
Management.
