Smart-UPS RT 15000/20000 VA 230 Vac Stack/Rack-Mount 6U User Manual

Operation

The UPS has three operation mode options.
Normal operation

During normal operation, the UPS double converts utility power to conditioned power for the connected load.
Battery operation

During battery operation, the UPS provides power to the connected load from batteries for a finite period of

time. The UPS transfers to battery operation if the supply of utility power fails or is outside predefined limits.
Bypass operation

Bypass mode is reached either as a user selection or automatically.

Bypass mode can be selected through the Control menu screen on the PowerView display

The UPS will automatically switch into bypass mode if:

Both normal and battery operation modes are unavailable

An output overload condition occurs

The UPS has an internal fault

During bypass operation the utility power is connected to the load, bypassing the internal converters. If bypass

mode becomes unavailable the UPS will automatically switch to mains power. In the event that mains power is

unavailable the system will switch to battery power.
Battery LED

The battery LED is located on the front bezel of the XLBP. During normal operation the LED is not

illuminated.
On start-up the XLBP LED may illuminate and blink within the first minute. The LED should then extinquish.
Refer to the XLBP User Manual for details on XLBP operation.
