2.3 Connecting the protected equipment
A PulsarEvolution 1500 tower UPS has been used below to illustrate the instructions. The principle is the same for all the
other tower and rack models.
Check that the indications on the rating plate on the back of the UPS correspond to your AC-power system and to
the actual electrical consumption of all the equipment to be connected to the UPS.

2. Installation
1 - Remove the power cord supplying the
equipment to be protected.
8
2 - Connect the power cord
from the equipment to the AC-power socket
␣ ␣ 8 , and then to the AC-power wall outlet.
3 - Connect the protected equipment to the
UPS using the two cords 20 .
Connect priority loads to the two standard
outlets ␣ 5 and any non-priority loads to the
two programmable outlets ␣ ␣ 6 (1 and 2).
If the UPS is connected to a
computer running MGE
communications software, it is
possible to program the
interruption of power to the
programmable outlets 6 during
operation on battery power, thus

1 - Connect the RS232 21 or USB 22
communications cable to the serial port or
RS232

the USB port on the computer.
22

2 - Connect the other end of the
communications cable 21 or 22 to the
RS232 2 or USB 1 communications
port on the UPS.
The UPS can now communicate with all
MGE UPS SYSTEMS supervision, set-up or
safety software.
The RS232 and USB
communications ports cannot
operate simultaneously.
2.5 Connection to the data-line protection port (optional)
The data-line protection function on the UPS
eliminates overvoltages flowing on the
computer-network lines.
Simply connect the line to be protected to
the UPS using the data-line protection
connectors (IN and OUT) as indicated
opposite (RJ45 cables not supplied).

3. Operation
3.1 Start-up
Press the ON / OFF button 10 .
The buzzer beeps and all the LEDs come ON.
The buzzer beeps twice during the self-test, then button 10 remains
10
ON, indicating that the outlets are supplied with power.
- AC power is present: Only button 10 is ON. The protected
11
equipment is supplied by the AC-power source.

If button 10 or LED 11 are not ON or if LED 12 is ON, there is a fault (see section 4.1).
Note: The battery is charged as soon as the UPS is connected to the AC-power source, even if button 10 is in the OFF
position.
3.2 Shift to booster or fader mode
(during voltage variations in the AC-input power)

- AC power is absent: Button 10 and LED 11 are ON. The protected
equipment is supplied by the UPS, operating on battery power.
All the connected equipment is supplied with power.
The booster and fader functions maintain the output voltage supplied by
the UPS within close tolerances around the rated value even if
significant voltage variations occur in the AC-input power. This avoids
calling on battery power.
The values defining the voltage range may be set using the UPS Driver
software.
During operation in booster or fader mode, LED 16 is ON, signalling a
significant voltage variation in the AC-input power.

3.3 Operation on battery power (following failure of AC-input power)
Transfer to battery power
The AC-input power is out of tolerances, LED 11 goes ON.
During operation on battery power, the buzzer beeps every ten seconds.
The equipment connected to the UPS is supplied by the battery.

Threshold for the low-battery warning
When the threshold is reached, the buzzer beeps every three seconds.
The low-battery warning threshold can be set by the user, with the “UPS
Driver” software.
There is very little remaining battery backup time. Close all

When the battery reaches the end of its backup time, the UPS shuts
down and all the LEDs go OFF.

The equipment is no longer supplied with power.
The UPS automatically restarts when power returns.
If the UPS does not restart, check that the “automatic restart when power returns” function has not been disabled (see
section 3.4 Personalisation).
