Alpha Technologies CFR 1500, CFR 2000, CFR 2500, CFR 3000 - Manual (Page 28)

The CFR is designed so that battery backup time can be greatly extended simply
by plugging the EBP 48 External Battery Pack to the back of the UPS. Battery packs
are completely self-contained.
*Battery run times are calculated at typical load (80%) and represent the total time of the CFR internal batteries and EBP
battery pack.
1. Switch the CFR's BATTERY circuit breaker OFF.
2. Locate the EXTERNAL battery connector on the rear panel of the UPS
and remove the Phillips screw #1 and loosen Phillips screw #2.
3. Slide the cover plate to the left and insert the battery pack’s connector
into the UPS. Secure the connector to the UPS using the Phillips screw #1.
4. Switch the EBP and CFR “BATTERY” breakers ON and test the unit
for proper operation.

Disable Transmission of Unsolicited Alarms
“509 None (xxxx)”; xxxx= “active” or blank; default is “active.”
Setting this option to “active” disables the transmission of all
unsolicited alarm messages. USER SECURITY CODE is required to
set this option.
Transmit IPC-XXX Type Unsolicited Alarms
“IPC-XXX (xxxx)”; xxxx= “active” or blank; default is blank
Setting this option to “active” causes unsolicited alarm messages
of type IPC-XXX to be transmitted whenever the status of the CFR
changes. These are ASCII type messages which are sent on the RS-
232 port. The USER SECURITY CODE is required to activate this
option.
The following is a list of the unsolicited alarm messages.
UPS000 - power up
UPS001 - input out of tolerance
UPS002 - input blackout
UPS003 - inverter on
UPS004 - line mode
UPS005 - low battery warning
UPS006 - low battery shutdown
UPS007 - overload
UPS008 - load OK
UPS009 - temperature high
UPS010 - temperature OK
UPS011 - service required
UPS012 - UPS malfunction
UPS013 - self-test (Inv. on)
UPS014 - self-test passed (line mode)
UPS015 - self-test failed
Delay Transmission of Inverter On Unsolicited Alarms
“Inverter on Alarm Delay (xxxxx)”; xxxxx= “off” or “m=min”, where
m specifies 1 to 5 minutes; default setting is “off”.
Transmission of the “inverter on unsolicited message,”
(i.e.,UPS003 - inverter on), can be delayed for 1 to 5 minutes to prevent
short interruptions in the input AC line from being displayed. Setting
this option to “off” causes all AC line interruptions to be displayed.
USER SECURITY CODE is required to change this option.
