Changing Parameter Settings

The method of changing any operating parameter follows the same

procedure as setting initial parameters, as described in Initial Startup

Parameters" on page 56. Begin by entering the correct password to allow

the change. Use the Menu Map (Figure 50 on page 68) to find the

parameter you need to change, and move through the menu structure

until the parameter name appears on the display. Press the button to

access the parameter value and, when you have changed the value, press

the button again to save the change. To avoid making a change, press

ESC instead of the button.

Reading the Powerware 9170 System Logs

The Powerware 9170 system makes an entry in its logs each time it

sounds an alarm or runs on battery power. This information can help in

diagnosing power problems. You can display the UPS Inverter and

Alarm logs on the unit's front panel display; these logs are in menu 9.

Inverter Log

The inverter (Battery mode) log is in menu 9, submenu 1. Move through

the menu structure by pressing the Menu button and pressing the

B

button to move down to menu 9. Press to move to submenu 1 and

press again to view the most recent entry in the inverter log.
The log stores up to 16 entries, in chronological order. You can use the

B

and

Y

buttons to scroll up and down through the log entries. Each

entry shows the date and time the unit switched to battery operation

(in 24-hour format), and the duration of battery operation (in hours and

minutes).
A typical entry might look like this:
