1 Software Description

The industrial PC option "ACU UPS Control Unit" in combination with a battery/capacitor
pack extends the industrial PC (IPC) by one UPS function.The ACU UPS software controls
the behaviour of the IPC in this process as soon as the hardware identifies a supply voltage
failure.

The ACU UPS control unit is a factory set pre−equipment if you chose this option when
placing your purchase order. However, it can also be upgraded later on by Lenze service
personnel.

If you purchased the preinstalled operating system on a storage medium at Lenze, the ACU
UPS software is already installed and configured according to your hardware.
Alternatively, you can find the software on the driver CD for your IPC. Then, install the
software as described in the chapter "Software Installation". (¶ 17

1.1 Operating mode

Operating mode

During the boot phase of the operating system, the ACU UPS is in a permanent buffer
operation which means that it already provides protection against data loss in the boot
phase, even before the ACU software has started.

The ACU software starts automatically after the operating system has been booted and
monitorsthe voltage supply from the background until it is closed along with the operating
system.
