Special Symbols
The unit has a dangerous amount of voltage. If the UPS indic ator is on, the unit’s outlets may have a
dangerous amount of volt age even when not plugged into the wall outlet because the battery may continue
to supply pow er.
Care should be taken to undertake installati on indoors, free from electrically-conductive particles which are
under temperature and humidit y control, in order to reduce t he ri sk of electric shock.
It is best to disconnect the dev ice using the po wer supply cord. E nsure that the equi pm ent is placed in a
position near the outlet wher e easily accessible.
Except f or repl acing the batteries, all servicing on this equipment must be c arri ed out by qualified service
personnel.
Before conducting any maintenance, repair, or shipment, first ensure that everything i s turned off completely
and disconnected.
The following symbols us ed on the UPS warn y ou of precautions :
telecommunications equipm ent should not be plugged into it .
The informat i on provided in this manual covers single phase SX-BDL-1500, SX-BDL-2000, UPS-1500-OL, UPS2000-OL, UPS -3000-OL uninterruptible power sy stems, their bas i c functions, operating procedures, options

4. Product Description
Many different kinds of sens i tive electri cal equipment can be protected by an U ni nterruptibl e Power Supply
(UPS) incl uding computers, workstations, process control systems, telecommunic ations sys tems, sales
terminals, other critical i nstrumentation, etc. The purpose of the UPS i s to protect these systems from poor
quality uti l i ty power, com pl ete loss of power, or other associated problems.
Electric al interference exi sts in many forms, causing pro blems in AC pow er, from lightning, power company
accidents and radio transmis sion motors, ai r conditioners, and vending machines. Prot ection of sensitive
electrical equi pment is v i tal to protect against power outages, low or high volt age conditions , slow voltage
fluctuati ons, frequency variations, differential and common-mode noise, transients, etc.
To prevent pow er line problems from reaching critical systems causing damage to software, hardware, and
equipment malfunctions, the UPS maintains constant vol tage, isolati ng critical load output and cleaning the utility
AC power.

Double Conversion On-Line Technology
A double conve rsion on-line tec hnology UPS provides complet ely isolated, clean, uninterrupted single-phase
power to your cri tical syst em s, while maintaining the batteries for their maximum potential. In the event t hat the
power failure lasts longer than the UPS bac kup time, the UPS w i ll shut down avoiding battery damage. When
the input AC voltage returns, the UPS wil l autom atically ret urn onl ine to recharge the batteries.
As shown i n fig. 1 block diagram:
• An input filter reduces transients on the inc oming utility .
• To maintain full battery char ge, the AC input power is rectified and regulated in the rectifier feeding
power to the batt ery converter and inverter.
• DC power is converted to AC i n the inverter, passing it on to the load.
• Power is mai ntained from the bat tery during a power failure.
• The converte r increases voltage appropri ately for the inv erter.
When the UPS is started, a diagnos tic test is automatically ex ecuted, check ing the electronic s and batteries,
reporting any problems on the LCD display. A diagnostic test can also be performed manually from the front
panel at any t ime.

5. System Configuration
The UPS devi ce and the internal batteries make up t he system. Dependi ng on the site and load requirements of
the install ation, certain additional options are available for the solution.
Planning a UPS system, the following should be taken into consi deration:
• The total dema nd of the protect ed system shall dictate the output power rating (V A ). Allow a margin for
future expansion or calculat i on inaccuraci es from measured power requirements.
• Backup tim e required will indi cate the battery size needed. I f the load is les s t han the UPS nominal
power rating, then actual back up time is longer.
• The following options are avail able:
o Extended Battery Packs
UPS-BPX-1500 for 1500
UPS-BPX-2000 for 2000/30 00
o Connectiv i ty Options –SNMP/WEB card
See the Specif ication section of this manual for additional model informat i on.
There are four l i nes of information i n the LCD displ ay. Each line prov i des specif i c information relat ed to the unit
status and/ or operation. Lin e i nformation will be described from top to bottom with the top being li ne one.
Line One
Provides data i n to numeric s ections, wit h the data correspondi ng to the applicabl e category in l ine one
and two
Line Two
Allow s the user to identi fy which variabl e i nformation is bei ng displayed.
• Input
• Output
• Battery
• Load
• Temperature
This indicates t he status of the U PS.
RS-232 Standard Interface
The RS-232 interface uses a 9-pin f em ale D-sub connector. Inf orm ation provided inc ludes data about utility,
load and the UP S. The interface port pins and their functions are identified in the following table:
Line Three
This is a graphics secti on with load graphics on the left and battery graphics on t he ri ght. The fail ure
icon will appear in this section when a failure occurs.
The UPS provi des an intelligent slot for int ernal or external network card. This special int el ligent network card
can be compatibl e with popular software and h ardware found on t he web and in operati ng systems . It can
support oper ating system s such as HP Open View, IBM Netview , SUN Netmanager, et c. This enables the UPS
to provide instant UPS and power i nformation over the network. Please contact your reseller for additional
details.
N
OTES:The UPS can be monitored through the RS232 interf ace or the SNMP c ard, but only one way at a time.
The user can choose RS232 or SNM P communications through the c ommunications switch on the rear
panel of the UPS. RS232 is chos en if the switch is depressed to the R S232 position, and SNMP is
chosen if the switch is depressed to the SNMP position. When there are two or more monitored piec es
of equipment, the ground of each piece of equipment should be s hared. The SNMP card is configured
as DHCP by default IP setting.
Remote Emergency Power Off (REPO) Port
A customer supplied swit ch located remotely can be used to cl ose the REPO connection and allows the UPS
output receptacles to be switched off. S ince the REPO shut s down the equipment i m m ediately, orderly
shutdown procedures are not followed by any power management software. The UPS will have to be manually
restarted in o rder to regain power to the outlet s on the UPS.

6. Determining the Power Requirements of your Equipment
A. Make sure the total Volt-Amp (VA) requi rements of your connected equipment does not exceed the
maximum VA rating for the UPS. The maximum VA rati ngs are shown in the Specificati ons section of this
document.
B. Ensure that the equipm ent plugged int o the battery-powered outlet s does not exceed t he UPS rated
capacity . If UPS rated capac i ties are exceeded, an overload c ondi tion may occur and cause the UPS to shut
down and trip the c i rcuit breaker.
C. If the power requirements of your equi pm ent are lis ted in values other t han Volt-Amps (VA), convert Watts
(W) or Amps (A) i nto VA by doing the calculations below. Note: T he equation below only calculates the
maximum amount of VA that the equi pm ent can use, not what is typi cally used by the equipment at any
given time. Users should expec t usage requirements to be appr oximately 60% of the value to es timate
power requirements:
Watts (W) x 1.43 = _____ VA or _____ Amps (A) x 120 = _____ VA
Add the totals for all of the equipm ent and multiply this total by 0.65 to calc ul ate actual power requirements.
N
OTE: Many factors can affect the amount of power that your c omputer system will require. The total load
that you wi l l be placing on the battery-powered outlets should not exceed 85% of the UPS capacity .
