PERATION

Battery mode occurs in

event of an extreme input

voltage condition or com-

plete utility failure. The

battery system supplies

power through the DC to

DC converter to the

inverter to generate power

for the connected load.
During battery mode an alarm sounds every 10 seconds. This will

change to two beeps every 5 seconds when the battery runs low

(approximately 2 minutes remaining, but this is user configurable).

The AC Input LED will extinguish, and the Battery LED will illumi-

nate to warn that a utility problem has occurred. Each battery level

indicator represents a 20% capacity level. As capacity decreases, fewer

indicators remain illuminated. Refer to 10.0 - Troubleshooting.
For approximate battery run times, refer to 13.0 - Battery Run

Times. The times listed in these tables are approximate based on

resistive load and an ambient temperature of 77°F (25°C). To increase

this time, turn off non-essential pieces of equipment (such as idle com-

puters and monitors) or add the optional external battery cabinet.

If the UPS is manually turned OFF, it must be manually restarted

after utility power is restored.
If the UPS is turned OFF by a communication signal or because the

batteries are depleted, it will operate as selected in the configuration

program for Auto-Restart (see 8.1 - GXT 2U Configuration Pro-

gram Abilities).

Once utility power is restored, the UPS resumes normal operation. At

this time, the Battery Charger begins recharging.

!

CAUTION

Turning OFF the UPS while in battery mode will result in loss

of output power.
