Startup for Hardwired Units

To start a hardwired unit, use the following steps:

1. Confirm that an electrician has completed and tested the

connection to the proper power source.

2. Check the cable connections between the UPS and any external

battery cabinets.

3. Ensure that all power modules are properly installed and

latched into the UPS cabinet.

4. If you are installing power management software, connect your

computer to the UPS communication port using the supplied

communication cable.

Before operating the bypass switch, use the following procedure to check the wiring

for correct installation. To prevent damage to the load, turn off the main circuit breaker

in the load service panel or verify that the load cannot receive power from the UPS.

6. At the bypass switch, press the red button and turn the switch

to UPS.

7. Remove the cover panel on the bypass switch to gain access to

the terminal block for voltage measurements.

8. If external battery cabinets are installed, close the DC

disconnect switch on the back of each external battery cabinet.

Insert the switch key supplied with the cabinet into the center

of the switch button and turn clockwise 1/2-turn. Pull the

button out to close the switch. Turn the key back counter-

clockwise, and remove the key.
