2.4 UPS Standard Features
The UPS has many standard features that provide cost-effective and consistently reliable
power protection:
2.4.1 Monitor Panel
The Monitor Panel on the front of the UPS contains an LCD screen to display the current
status of the UPS. You can view a statistical history and log of UPS events and display a
real-time graphic representation of power flowing through the UPS components. Backlit
status indicators show the operating mode of the UPS and alert you to system events. The
emergency LOAD OFF button is also located on the monitor panel and is described in
Chapter 5, “Using the Monitor Panel.”
2.4.2 Control Panel
The Control Panel inside the right door of the UPS contains the operator controls to start
and stop the UPS, change the operating mode, and reset the LOAD OFF button. The
Control Panel is described in “Using the Control Panel” on page 4-1.
2.4.3 Communication Bays
Ī X-Slot
®
Communication Bay – The Communications Bay allows internal, UPS-powered
communication with optional X-Slot cards. The X-Slot cards support several protocols
such as SNMP, HTTP, and Modbus
®
. See Chapter 7, “Communication” for additional
information.
Ī
Computer Interface – Serial communication ports are standard on all UPSs, and are
electrically isolated from the UPS. You can use these ports to link the UPS to the
features described in Chapter 7, “Communication.”
Ī
Summary Alarm Contacts – Alarm contacts are provided for connection to equipment
at your facility such as a light, an audible alarm, or a computer terminal. The equipment
you connect to these contacts alerts you to a UPS alarm. This feature is described
further in Chapter 6, “Using Features and Options.”
Ī Building Alarm Monitoring – You can connect your facility’s alarm system contacts to
six inputs in the UPS. The UPS uses these inputs to monitor your building alarms in
addition to the UPS status. This feature is described further in Chapter 6, “Using
Features and Options.”
2.4.4 Input Filter
Your UPS may be equipped with an input filter. An input filter yields power factor
correction that allows you to save on the initial installation and operating costs. The filter
also reduces input harmonic current distortion and minimizes upstream interference that
can damage sensitive hardware components.
