1. This pin is functional only when the UPS is in battery mode. If the

UPS is being powered by the utility, Pin 4 will ignore any signal

on this pin.

2. Pin 4 requires a 5-12 VDC signal to shutdown. This normally

comes form the serial port using Liebert’s contact closure cable. It

cannot be used with just a contact closure unless the relay is used

to switch a voltage source. A 5-12 VDC signal for 1.5 seconds or

greater is required to signal a shutdown. Signals for less than 1.5

seconds will be ignored. After Pin 4 receives a shutdown signal for

1.5 seconds, the command cannot be canceled.

3. A battery shutdown signal on Pin 4 will NOT cause an immediate

shutdown. A shutdown signal will start a 2-minute shutdown

timer. The timer cannot be stopped. After 2 minutes, the UPS will

shut down.

4. If the utility returns during the 2-minute timer countdown, the

shutdown timer will continue until the end of 2 minutes and the

UPS will turn OFF. The UPS must remain OFF for at least 10

seconds even if AC input power returns before the UPS turns

OFF. This serves to reset and restart the server.

Whether the UPS turns back ON when power is restored depends on

the auto-restart setting: enabled or disabled.
If the auto-restart is disabled, the UPS will not restart after perform-

ing the 2-minute shutdown delay.
