6.2 Glossary

Backup time

Time that the connected equipment can operate on battery power if AC-input power fails.

Bargraph

Device on the front panel indicating the percent remaining backup time or the percent
load.

Battery module (additional)

Additional battery modules connected in parallel to increase the UPS backup time.

Booster mode

Automatic UPS operating mode whereby the input-power voltage is increased if it drops
below a value set in the personalisation parameters, thus avoiding a battery discharge.

De-energised

The UPS must be physically disconnected from the AC-input power.

Equipment

Devices and systems connected to the UPS output.

Fader mode

Automatic UPS operating mode whereby the input-power voltage is decreased if it rises
above a value set in the personalisation parameters, thus avoiding a battery discharge.

Input circuit breaker

Circuit breaker protecting the upstream distribution system against UPS faults.

Outlets

Pulsar Evolution has a group of four non-programmable outlets.

Output circuit breaker

Circuit breaker protecting the UPS against high overloads or faults on the connected
equipment.

Personalisation

The parameters for a number of UPS functions may be modified using the UPS Driver
software to adapt UPS operation to user needs.

RS232 communications port

For UPS connection to a computer via the serial port.

Programmable outlets

Pulsar Evolution has two groups of two programmable outlets. They may be used for
sequential start-up of protected equipment, shedding of non-priority loads during
operation on battery power or management of operating priorities to provide the most
critical devices with more backup time before battery power runs out. These outlets may
be programmed using the Solution-Pac software on the CD-ROM supplied with the
UPS.

Solution-Pac

MGE UPS SYSTEMS safety, set-up and supervision software suite on the CD-ROM
supplied with the UPS.

UPS

Uninterruptible Power Supply.

UPS Driver

Communications software on the CD-ROM supplied with the UPS. It may be used to
personalise the default settings.

USB communications port

For UPS connection to a computer via the USB port.
