Chapter 4: Operation
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
This Line-Interactive UPS protects computers, servers, telecom systems, VoIP systems, security systems, and a variety of electronic equipment from blackouts, brownouts, overvoltages, and surges. The AVR function continuously corrects the voltages, in-between the brownout and overvoltage transfer points (90 - 140V AC), to a
safe usable level. When the UPS is operating in the AVR mode the audible alarm
will remain silent and the AC normal mode indicator will blink. During normal AC
operation, the UPS will quietly and confidently protect your system from power
anomalies.
The UPS will charge the batteries with the UPS in the on or off position when the
UPS is plugged into the wall outlet and there is an acceptable AC volt age present
(90 - 140VAC). When a blackout, brownout, or an overvoltage condition occurs;
the UPS will transfer to the battery mode, the On Battery indicator will illuminate and
the audible alarm will sound once every ten seconds indicating that the commercial
power is lost or unacceptable. When the commercial power returns or is at an
acceptable level, the UPS will automatically transfer back to the AC normal mode
and start recharging the batteries. During an extended outage when there is approximately two minutes of backup time remaining the audible alarm will sound
twice every five seconds. This Low Battery Warning is informing the user that they
should save all open files and turn off their computer. When the batteries reach the
predetermined level the UPS will automatically shutdown protecting the batteries
from over discharging. Once the commercial power returns the UPS will automatically restart, providing safe usable power to the connected equipment and start
recharging the batteries.
