If the installation is in the Tower orientation, locate the support base and stand the UPS up on the support base. Note the
display should be located on the upper half of the unit in the Tower orientation and to rotate the display, grasp the sides
and rotate it 90 degrees clockwise. If the USP is to be installed in a rack enclosure, follow the instructions provided with

the rack mounting hardware for proper installation.

If using an optional POD that was purchased separately, please see instructions shipped with the POD for installation
instructions. This should be done before connecting the UPS to utility power.

The UPS is hardwired input with a conduit entry knockouts provided. Input and output wiring should be installed in
separate conduits. All wiring should be done in accordance to all local and national electrical codes. Before wiring the
UPS ensure that the breaker in the external upstream panelboard is OFF.

model number GXT3-288RTBKIT, and follow these steps to install the battery.

1. Loosen and remove the screws on the battery door and remove the battery door and set aside the screws and
door for reassembly

2. Insert the two battery trays and connect the plugs to the mating receptacles

3. Gently push the battery wiring into the compartment making sure that the wiring will not be pinched when the
battery door is reinstalled.

4. Reinstall the battery door and secure using the screws that were removed in step 1.

5. Locate the plastic bezel from the shipping box and attach the bezel to the UPS taking care to align the fastening
clips on both ends before inserting them into the holes.

6. If your application requires the use of external battery cabinets for longer back up time requirements, connect the
first battery cabinet to the UPS with the cable provided with the battery cabinet. Note: it does not matter which
connector is used on the battery cabinet. If more than one battery cabinet is used the additional cabinets then
connect to the adjoining battery cabinet.

The Liebert® GXT3™ UPS is ready to be powered.

1. Ensure the maintenance bypass breaker is in the open position and that the guard is secured in place.

2. Ensure that the REPO connector on the rear of the unit has a jumper between pins 1-2 of the REPO connector or
properly wired to an Emergency Power Off circuit (normally closed).

3. Install any optional Intellislot communication card into the Intellislot port on the rear of the unit.

4. Ensure the Power Module locking lever is in the locked position. Note: this lever is located on the front of the unit
just to the left of the display (rack orientation) or below the display (tower orientation)

5. Close the input breaker in the panelboard that provides input power to the UPS

6. Close the input breaker on the rear of the UPS unit. Note: the UPS will now have power and the AC Input

indicator on the display should illuminate. The UPS will also begin to charge the internal batteries at this point, so
there will also be battery capacity LEDs illuminated.

7. The Liebert GXT3 UPS has customizable settings that might be required depending on the application. Please
review the CD that ships with the UPS unit for the steps to use the configuration program and make any
necessary changes. Once that is complete, proceed to the next step.

8. Close all output breakers on the rear of the UPS and on the POD (if used) or in an external panelboard (if used)

9. If external battery cabinets are used, close all breakers on the rear of each battery cabinet

10. Press and hold for about 4 seconds, the “ON” button on the UPS display. Note: this will apply power to the output
receptacles via the internal bypass and the bypass indicator will be illuminated along with an audible beep.

11. Over the next several seconds the UPS will perform the self checks and startup routine then automatically
transfer the connected equipment to the inverter power. Once that is complete, the bypass indicator will turn off
and the inverter indicator will illuminate.

The UPS is now running in normal operation mode providing protected, filtered power to the connected equipment.
