All parameters are specified at an input voltage of 24V, 10A output load, 25°C ambient and after a 5 minutes run-in time unless noted otherwise.

It is assumed that the input power source can deliver a sufficient output current.

26.3. Using the Inhibit Input

The inhibit input disables buffering. In normal mode, a static signal is required. In buffer mode, a pulse with a
minimum length of 250ms is required to stop buffering. The inhibit is stored and can be reset by cycling the input
voltage.

For service purposes, the inhibit input can also be used to connect a service switch. Therefore, the inhibit signal can
be supplied from the output of the DC-UPS.

26.4. Troubleshooting

The LEDs on the front of the unit and relay contacts indicate about the actual or elapsed status of the DC-UPS. Please
see also section 14

.

The following guidelines provide instructions for fixing the most common failures and problems. Always start with
the most likely and easiest-to-check condition. Some of the suggestions may require special safety precautions. See
notes in section

25

first.

“Check wiring” LED is on

Check correct wiring between the battery and the DC-UPS.

Check battery fuse. Is the batte ry fuse inserted or blown?
Check battery voltage (must be typically between 7.4V and 15.1V).
Check input voltage (must be typically between 22.8V and 30V).
Check battery polarity.

DC-UPS did not buffer

Inhibit input was set.
Battery did not have enough time to be charged and is still below the deep discharge
protection limit.

DC-UPS stopped buffering

Deep discharge protection stopped buffering use a larger battery, or allow

sufficient time for charging the battery.
Output was overloaded or short circuit

reduce load.

Output has shut down

Cycle the input power to reset the DC-UPS.

Let DC-UPS cool down, over temperature protection might have triggered.

DC-UPS constantly switches between normal mode and buffer mode

The supplying source on the input is too small and cannot deliver sufficient current.

Use a larger power supply or reduce the output load.
