The six symbols on the left side of the monitor panel are status indicators. They are backlit

by colored light emitting diodes (LEDs), and they work in conjunction with the alarm horn

to let you know the operating status of the UPS.

Description

Normal

This green symbol is lit when the UPS is operating in Normal mode.

The PPU is supplying power to the critical load.

This yellow symbol is lit when the UPS is operating in Battery mode.

Because Battery mode is a normal condition of the UPS, the Normal

indicator also remains lit.

The critical load is supported by the bypass source. The Normal

which point the Normal indicator is lit. During normal shutdown, the
