Introduction & System Description
Congratulations on your choice of the Sola Series S1K Uninterruptible Power
System (UPS). It provides conditioned power to microcomputers and other
sensitive electronic equipment.
The S1K Series is a compact, “Off-Line” UPS. It supplies connected equipment
with stepped approximation to sinewave power to simulate the power generated by
the utility.
The S1K is a powerful, microprocessor controlled UPS. Input voltage range is 75%
to 125%, ideal protection for the critical connected loads. Battery charging occurs
automatically when AC power is applied, no need to switch ON the UPS. When
power fails, the UPS can be automatically turned OFF if none of the connected
loads are operating to save the battery energy. The S1K includes an automatic
self-test feature tests the UPS function and battery. If the battery is found to be no
longer useful, the unit will alarm and an LED indicator will illuminate.
Software and Interface Port (Option)
Power Monitoring Software
The UPSMON series software (or other power monitoring software) is applied
standard RS-232 interface to perform monitoring functions, and then provides an
orderly shutdown of a computer in the event of power failure. Moreover, UPSMON
displays all the diagnostic symptoms on monitor, such as Voltage, Frequency,
Battery level and so on. The software is available for DOS, Windows 3.1x,
Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows XP, Windows
NT or later, Novell Netware, Linux, and others. Call your dealer for more
information on computer OS compatible solutions.
Interface Kits
A series of interface kits is available for operation systems that provide UPS
monitoring. Each interface kit includes the special interface cable required to
convert status signals from the UPS into signals which individual operating system
recognizes. The interface cable at UPS side must be connected to REMOTE
PORT, at computer side can be either COM 1 or COM 2. The other installation
instructions and powerful features please refer to READ.ME le.
Characteristics of Computer Interface Port
The computer interface port has the following characteristics:
