Congratulations on your choice of the Liebert UPStation GXT 2U™
Uninterruptible Power System (UPS). It provides conditioned power
to microcomputers and other sensitive electronic equipment.
Upon generation, AC power is clean and stable. However, during
transmission and distribution it may be subject to voltage sags,
spikes, or complete power failure that may interrupt computer opera-
tions, cause data loss, or even damage equipment. The UPStation
GXT 2U protects equipment from these disturbances.
The UPStation GXT 2U comes in nominal power ratings of 500, 700,
1000, 1500, 2000 and 3000 VA. Complete model specifications appear
at the end of this manual.
The UPStation GXT 2U is a compact, “on-line” UPS. An on-line UPS
continuously conditions and regulates its output voltage, whether util-
ity power is present or not. It supplies connected equipment with
clean sinewave power. Sensitive electronic equipment operates best
from sinewave power.
For ease of use, the UPStation GXT 2U features a light-emitting diode
(LED) display to indicate either load percentage or battery capacity
depending upon the mode of operation. It also provides self-diagnostic
tests, a combination ON/Alarm Silence/Manual Battery Test button, a
Standby button, user configurable program, and two levels of alarms
when the unit is operating on battery.
The UPStation GXT 2U has an interface port for communication
between the UPS and a network server or other computer systems.
This port provides detailed operating information including voltages,
currents, and alarm status to the host system when used in conjunc-
tion with Liebert MultiLink™ software. MultiLink software can also
remotely control UPS operation.
