6.2.3 Controlling the external fan by temperature triggered dry contact
The Temperature trigger has a user configurable range of +20°C to +55°C (68 to 131 °F). When the battery
temperature (monitored by the Battery Temperature Probe) reaches the threshold, the assigned relay closes and
turns on the external fan.
Procedure
From the Logo screen, navigate to Control Menu > RELAY TEMP. Press the SELECT button and the current
temperature display will start flashing. Use the Scroll button to change the temperature in 5°C increments. Press
SELECT
to accept the changes or CANCEL to abort.

charging, refer to the web GUI description "UPS Maintenance > Battery" on page 38.
1. Put the unit in STANDBY mode before starting this procedure.
2. Use a combination of the SCROLL and SELECT keys on the control panel interface to select
CHARGER
in the Control menu.
3. Select Bulk to set the max
charge
voltage and float voltage for charging the batteries (selectable in 0.1V
increments).
Selectable in 0.1V steps: from
52 to 56V. (Default is 53.5V)
Selectable in 0.1V steps: from
52V to less than or equal to max
charge voltage. (Default is 53.5V)

NOTE:
Temperature compensation defaults to 0 mv/ °C/ cell in this mode, but can be changed
to non-zero values.
If you set the max charging voltage to a value lower than currently set float voltage, float
voltage will be automatically adjusted to be equal to the new max charging voltage.
