Battery
1. The UPS is composed of mains input (main and bypass), rectifier/PFC, charger, inverter,
bypass, battery, DSP controller, and output.
2. When the mains is normal, the rectifier will start, and the charger will charge the battery
string. Before turning on the UPS, the output voltage is bypass voltage, and the mains
supplies power to the load through the bypass. After turning on the UPS, the electronic
transfer switch connects the inverter output to the load, and the mains supplies DC power to
the inverter through the rectifier/PFC circuit. The inverter then converts DC power into pure
sine wave AC power, and supplies the AC power to the load through the electronic transfer
switch.
3. When the mains is outside the UPS input supply tolerance levels, the battery supplies the
required power to the load through the rectifier/PFC circuit where the battery voltage is
boosted, and then supplies to the Inverter where it converts DC into pure sinewave AC
power.
4. After the input mains returns within tolerance levels, the UPS will automatically transfer
from Battery mode to Normal mode, the mains supplies DC power to the inverter through the
rectifier/PFC circuit, and then the electronic transfer switch supplies AC power to the load.
For the LED indicators introduced in this section, refer to 4.1.1 LED Indicators.
The UPS state and operation mode include: Normal mode, Bypass mode, Battery mode, ECO
mode, Fault state and Maintenance Bypass mode. The operation schematic diagrams of
Normal mode, Bypass mode, Battery mode and Maintenance Bypass mode are shown in
Figure 1-5 to Figure 1-8.
Maintenance bypass mode is activated only when the UPS output power distribution
unit (POD in short) is selected.
When the mains input is normal, the load is supplied with voltage-stabilizing and
frequency-stabilizing power by the mains after processing of the rectifier and the inverter,
and meanwhile, the charger is charging the battery. The operation mode is Normal mode.
In Normal mode, the run indicator (green) is on, the alarm indicator is off, and the buzzer is
silence.

bypass source, which comes directly from the mains input. If the rectifier is normal, the
internal charger will charge the battery.
In Bypass mode, the run indicator (green) is on, alarm indicator (yellow) is on, and the buzzer
beeps every seconds. The 'Current' page in LCD will display 'On Bypass'.

Battery
1. The battery has been fully charged before delivery. However, some loss of
capacity is inevitable during transportation and storage. Therefore, it is important to
charge the battery for eight hours before the UPS is first put into operation to
ensure it can provide adequate backup time.
2. The Liebert ITA2 UPS supports cold start function, while this function is activated,
UPS can be powered using battery mode without availability of input power supply.
Therefore, the battery power can also be utilized independently for improving the
system availability .
1.5.4 ECO Mode (For Single UPS With External Battery Only)
In ECO mode, the load is powered by bypass when the bypass voltage is normal, and the load
is powered by inverter when the bypass voltage is abnormal. ECO mode is an energy-saving
operation mode. For power equipment insensitive to power grid quality, you can use the ECO
mode for power supply through bypass to reduce the power loss.
1. In ECO mode, if the bypass failure or abnormal bypass voltage appears when the
output is not overloaded, the UPS will transfer to Normal mode. However, if the
bypass failure or abnormal bypass voltage appears when the output is overloaded,
the UPS will not transfer to Normal mode, but shut down the bypass.
2. In ECO mode, the efficiency of the UPS is up to 99%.
In Normal mode, the UPS will transfer to Bypass mode if the inverter failure or UPS
over-temperature appears. In Battery mode (with no bypass mains), the UPS will shut down
and stop the output if the inverter failure or UPS over-temperature appears. In UPS Fault
state, the alarm indicator (red) will be solid on, the buzzer will keep beeping, and the
corresponding fault information will be displayed on LCD.
In case when UPS needs to be maintained/repaired online, Load can be transferred to the
maintenance bypass using maintenance bypass MCB located on the front panel of the POD.
The POD capacity must meets the requirements of total load demand.
Refer to Liebert® ITA2TM 30kVA UPS Power Output Distribution Unit User Manual for the

In the event of UPS malfunctions or abnormal operation, contact your nearest Vertiv
branch office or local service center. NEVER attempt to repair the UPS yourself, as
this may result in injury to personnel and/or damage to equipment.
This chapter introduces the installation, cable connection and commissioning of the single
UPS.
Each site has its own peculiarity, so this chapter provides general installation procedures and
methods for the installation engineer who should conduct the installation according to the
actual conditions.
Professional installation
1. The UPS should be installed by a qualified engineer in accordance with the
information provided in this section. In the event of any problems, contact your
local Vertiv service center immediately.
2. The UPS must NOT be switched ON without the approval of the commissioning
engineer.
3. For other equipment which is not introduced in this manual, the detailed
information about mechanical installation and electrical installation are delivered
with the equipment.
Use a hammer or straight screwdriver to straighten the connection hook that connects the
side panels to the top cover, as shown in Figure 2-1.
1. Visually inspect the UPS appearance for transportation damage. If any problem is found,
please notify the carrier immediately.
2. Check the accessories and models against the delivery list. If any problem is found, please
notify the dealer immediately.
The battery appearance must be inspected before accepting and using the battery. If there
exists any package damage, dirty battery terminal, terminal erosion, rust, or enclosure crack,
deformation or liquid leakage, replace it with a new battery. Otherwise, battery capacity
reduction, electric leakage or fire may be caused.
The UPS cabinet can be moved by human, or forklift or other similar lifting equipment.
The battery is very heavy. Please use proper method to move and lift the battery, so to
prevent any damage to human being or the battery terminal. Severe damage to the battery
may cause fire.
2.3.1 Location
Convenient wiring
No excessive dust
Operating temperature compliant with the specifications, see Table 1-2 for details
UPS room
The UPS is designed for indoor installation, which should be installed in a clean and
well-ventilated environment, to keep the ambient temperature within the specifications.
The internal fans provide forced air cooling for the UPS. Cooling air enters the UPS through
the ventilation holes on the front panel, and exhausts the hot air through the back ventilation
holes. Therefore, do not obstruct the ventilation holes. Maintain at least 200mm clearances
between the front, rear of the UPS and the wall or adjacent equipment (see Figure 2-3), to
avoid obstructing the UPS ventilation and heat dissipation. Otherwise, the UPS internal
temperature will rise, which will shorten the UPS life.
If necessary, an indoor exhaust fan should be installed to keep the indoor temperature from
rising. An air filter should be used in a dusty environment where the UPS is to be operated.
Wall
500mm
Cabinet
200mm
1. The UPS should only be installed on the concrete surface or other non-flammable
surfaces.
2. As shown in Figure 2-3, the demonstration of the clearance between the rear
panel of the cabinet and the wall is 500mm. The clearance should not be less than
200mm, it needs to be considered according to the actaul situation for the sake of
maintenance convenience.
Battery room
A small amount of hydrogen and oxygen will be generated at the end of battery charging,
therefore, you must ensure that the fresh air ventilation of battery installation environment
meets the EN50272-2001 requirements.
The battery ambient temperature should keep constant, for the ambient temperature is the
main factor to affect the battery capacity and life. The battery standard operating
temperature is 20°C, operation above this temperature will shorten the battery life, and
operation below this temperature will reduce the battery capacity. If the battery average
temperature in operation rises from 20°C to 30°C, the battery life will be reduced by 50%; if
the battery temperature in operation exceeds 40°C, the battery life will be decreased
exponentially. In normal situation, the allowable ambient temperature for the battery is
between 15°C to 25°C. The battery should be kept away from heat source and air outlet.
When the UPS uses an external battery, you must install a battery protective device (such as
fuse or circuit breaker) close to the battery, and use the shortest wiring distance for the
connection between the protective device and the battery.
When the UPS does not need to be installed immediately, the UPS must be stored indoors to
be protected from the excessive moisture or over-temperature environment. The battery
requires dry and low temperature, well-ventilated environment for storage, and the most
suitable storage temperature is 20°C ~ 25°C.
Battery hazards
During the battery storage, the battery must be periodically charged according to
the battery instructions. When charging the battery, you can connect the UPS to
the mains temporarily to charge and activate the battery.
1. For the sake of safety, the installation tools under live operation must be
insulated.
2. Tools in Table 2-1 are for reference only; please follow the actual requirement for
on-site installation and connection.
Stepladder Forklift
Overcurrent
The appropriate over-current protective device should be installed on the mains input power
distribution, and the current capacity of power cable and the system overload requirements
should be taken into account in installation (see Table 2-2). For the thermomagnetic circuit
breaker, see Table 2-4.
Split-bypass
When the system uses split-bypass, separate protective devices should be installed for the
mains and bypass at the mains input power distribution.
1. The same neutral line must be used for the rectifier and bypass input power.
2. For IT power grid system, the 4-pole protective device for 3-phase UPS must be
installed at the UPS external I/O power distribution.
The earth leakage current fed by the RFI filter in the UPS, ranges from 3.5-100 mA.
Since earth leakage current is high which can cause false tripping of the circuit
breaker. Therefore, we do not recommend to use the MCB with leakage current
protection at upstream.
To facilitate the UPS installation, the battery is generally installed on the specially designed
battery rack or in the battery room. The external battery cabinet should provide DC
compatible circuit breaker to provide the over-current protection for the UPS and its
batteries, the protective device specification is shown in Table 2-4. This circuit breaker shall
be located as close as possible to the battery connecting terminal, and the wiring distance of
the power and signal cables connected to the UPS shall be minimized.
The protective device must be installed for the UPS output power distribution. The
protective device specification is shown in Table 2-4.
1. Take out the support bases from the accessories, assemble a pair of support bases and a
support base extension (accessory) together through the fastenings, as shown in Figure 2-4,
and place them onto the flat installation table.

5. When the battery cable is connected, it is prohibited to pull the battery cable or the cable
terminal.
6. Do not cross the battery cables during the connection, and do not tie the battery cables
together.
1. Before connecting the battery cables, confirm that the actual battery cell number
and capacity are consistent with the parameter settings on the LCD menus.
Incorrect settings can cause overcharging of the battery.
2. It is prohibited to reverse the polarity of the battery cables.
3. Before replacing the battery module and connecting the battery cables,
disconnect the DC battery MCB, power off the UPS completely, and conduct
isolation protection on the terminals.
4. It is recommended that the battery cable should not be longer than three meters.
Otherwise, the UPS cannot operate normally.
The battery terminals need insulating plates to guarantee the sufficient insulation distance
between the battery external cables connection, then avoid the faults like arcing, short circuit
occur.
1. First crimp the user external cable on the battery terminals, Figure 2-15 shows the OT
terminals.
The installation sequence of the OT terminals and insulating plates must be strictly
observed, otherwise the user external cables connection will be separated.
Installing battery
1. Before installation, you must inspect the appearance and accessories of the battery, and
carefully read this manual and the user manual provided by the battery manufactory.
2. Maintain at least 10mm clearances between the front, rear, side panels of the battery and
the wall or adjacent equipment to keep well-ventilated.
3. Maintain some clearances between the top of the battery and the upper baffle to facilitate
monitoring and maintenance of the battery.
4. Install the batteries from the bottom to the top to prevent too high center of gravity. Place
the battery well to avoid shake and impact.
The default battery number of the UPS is 32-block (16-block for positive and 16-block for
negative). The external battery string connection principle diagrams of the self-distribution
are shown in Figure 2-16. The required battery backup time (i.e. the time for battery to
supply load upon mains failure) is subject to the ampere-hour value of the battery.
Sometimes, it is necessary to connect several strings of battery in parallel.
When several strings of battery are paralleled to increase the battery backup time,
disconnecting device shall be equipped, so that the maintenance operation on a certain
battery string will not affect the normal operation of other battery strings.
1. As shown in Figure 2-16, one DC battery MCB must be added between the battery
strings and the UPS.
2. The voltage of the battery string is DC high voltage, the capacity of the MCB and
output cables is listed in Table 2-4.
3. The battery connecting terminal shall not be subject to any force, such as the
pulling force or twisting force of the cable, otherwise, the internal connection of the
battery may be damaged. Severe damage to the battery may cause fire.
4. The battery shall be firmly and reliably connected. After the connection is
completed, the screw connections between all the terminals and the batteries shall
be calibrated. The requirements on torque specified in the specifications or user
manual provided by the battery manufacturer shall be satisfied. The connections
between all the wiring terminals and the batteries shall be inspected and tightened
at least once a year. Otherwise it may cause fire!
5. Batteries of different types, names or newness shall not be used together.

This chapter introduces the features, requirements, installation and commissioning of the
parallel system.
The UPS parallel system provides the user with N + X (2 ≤ N + X ≤ 4, X=0 or 1) parallel
configuration, N stands for the basic parallel sets, X stands for the redundant sets.
1 + 1 parallel POD (optional) can provide safe and reliable power distribution function for the
parallel system. The 1 + 1 parallel system only needs one 1 + 1 parallel POD; if N is not less
than two, the external self-distribution will be required for the parallel system.
3.1 Features
1. The software and the hardware of each UPS in parallel system are the same as those of the
single UPS. The basic parameters of the parallel system can be set through the LCD (Refer
to 3.5.2 Parallel System Parameters Setting for details), and the detailed parameters can be
set through the background software (For service engineers only). For all UPSs of the parallel
system, the requirements of the parameter settings are same.
2. The parallel cables form a ring connection (Refer to 3.4.2 Connecting Parallel Cables for
details) to provide reliability and redundancy for the system. The intelligent parallel logic
provides the user with maximum flexibility. For example, each UPS in the parallel system can
be switched off or on in random order; seamless transfer can be achieved between Normal
mode and Bypass mode, and the transfer is automatically recoverable: that is, after the
overload is removed, the system will return to the original operation mode automatically.
3. The total load of the parallel system can be queried through the LCD of each UPS.
3.2 Requirements
A UPS system composed of multiple parallel-connected UPSs is equivalent to a large UPS
system. Nevertheless, it provides increased system reliability. To ensure equal utilization of all
UPSs and compliance with relevant wiring regulations, the following requirements must be
met:
1. All single UPSs must have the same capacity. The UPS must be connected to the same
bypass source.
2. The bypass input power and the rectifier input power must be connected to the same
neutral line input terminal.
3. If a residual current detector (RCD) is required, it must be set correctly and installed before
the same neutral line input terminal, or it must monitor the protective earth current of the
system. Refer to 'Warning: high leakage current' of Safety Precautions before Contents.
4. The outputs of all single UPSs must be connected to the same output bus.
1. The installation method of 1 + 1 parallel UPS is the same as that of the single UPS. Refer to
2.5 Mechanical Installation for details.
2. As shown in Figure 3-1, the UPS should be installed at the bottom; and the 1 + 1 parallel
POD should be installed on the top to facilitate the cable connection and operation. The
installation method of 1 + 1 parallel POD is the same as that of the UPS.
The power cables of the UPS are connected to the I/O terminal block of the rear panel of the
UPS, the layout of the I/O terminal block is shown in 2.6.1 Connecting I/O Cables.
There are two modes for UPS parallel power distribution: using the 1 + 1 parallel POD
(optional) provided by Vertiv, external isolation.
The power distribution mode of the parallel system is the same as that of the single unit,
refer to 2.6.1 Connecting I/O Cables.
It is recommended to use 1 + 1 parallel POD power distribution mode if you need 1 + 1 parallel
system, see 8.2 POD for details. For the installation and commissioning of different models,
refer to Liebert® ITA2TM 30kVA UPS Power Output Distribution Unit User Manual.
When the UPS number of the parallel system is more than two, use external isolation mode.
The block diagram of three UPSs parallel system is shown in Figure 3-2. Refer to Power
distribution mode in 2.6.1 Connecting I/O Cables for the cable connection of each UPS. Refer
to 2.6 Connecting Power Cables for the input and output MCB, the battery MCB and the
cables when using the external isolation mode.

Configure each UPS with extenal input MCB and extenal output MCB when carring
out the power distribution for the parallel system, as shown in Figure 3-2.
After connecting power cables, the protective cover of the I/O terminal block must
be reinstalled to avoid electric shock.
The parallel system provides parallel cable option. The parallel cables form a ring connection
through the parallel ports on the rear panel of the UPS. The cable connection schematic
diagram of 3 + 1 parallel system is shown in Figure 3-3.

UPS4
1. The Vertiv parallel cables must be used for the parallel system.
2. If the parallel communication fault occurs during the parallel commissioning or
operation, just shut off the system and check whether the connection of the parallel
cables are correct.
3. During parallel system operation, do not unplug the parallel cables to avoid
system damage risk.
In the parallel system, the UPS can support either Distributed battery System (Independent
battery systems on each UPS unit) or Centralized battery system (Shared battery system by
UPS units).
Each UPS should be equipped with an independent battery MCB. Refer to Table 2-4
for selection of the battery MCB.
When each UPS of the parallel system uses the independent battery string, the battery
cables connection of each UPS in the parallel system is the same as that of the single UPS,
refer to 2.6.2 Connecting Battery Cables for the installation method. The schematic diagram of
battery strings in 1 + 1 parallel system with independent battery strings is shown in Figure 3-4.
Refer to 2.6 Connecting Power Cables to configure an MCB.
Ensure that the LCD settings are correct when using the battery strings
independently for the parallel system, refer to 3.5.2 Parallel System Parameters
Settings for details.

3.6.1 Introduction
The dual bus system consists of two independent UPS systems; each UPS system consists of
one or two parallel-connected single UPSs, or more parallel-connected single UPSs.
The dual bus system has high reliability, which is suitable for the load with many input
terminals. For single UPS input load, you can add a static trigger switch (STS, optional) to
start the standard Load Bus Synchronization (LBS) system.
Place the UPSs side by side, and connect the UPSs as follows:
The dual bus system adopts the LBS system to realize the output synchronization of the two
independent (or parallel) UPS systems. One is the master system, and the other is the slave
system. The operation mode of the dual bus system contains master system and/or slave
system running in Normal mode or Bypass mode. The schematic diagram of the LBS system
built by two UPSs is shown in Figure 3-8.
Refer to 3.5 Commissioning Parallel System respectively for the settings of the
parallel system.
See 2.4 External Protective Device for details of installation and type selection.
In dual bus system, refer to 2.6 Connecting Power Cables and 3.4 Connecting Power Cables to
select the power cables for single UPS and parallel system respectively. The bypass input
power and main input power must use the input terminal of the same neutral line. If the input
terminal has leakage current, the leakage current protective device should be installed
before the input terminal.
UPS1
UPS2
Through the 'Settings' -> 'System' -> 'LBS', you can set the LBS according to actual needs.
There are three items of LBS for selection: Disable, Slave, Master.
Monitor System
You can manually set the 'Master' and 'Slave' through the LCD.
The UPS which is set to LBS master can send synchronization signal to LBS salve according
to the own inverter voltage phase. After the slave receives the synchronization signal sent by
the master, the slave will adjust its inverter voltage phase so as to realize the inverter voltage
phase is synchronized with the master.
Through the above to realize the inverter voltage phase synchronization of two sets of UPS
system, and realize the reliable transfer between the two sets of UPS output voltage and STS,
then provide the reliable uninterrupted power supply to the load.
This chapter introduces the functions and use of the components on the UPS operation and
display panel, and provides LCD display information, including the LCD screen types, detailed
menu messages, prompt windows message and UPS alarm list.

When the UPS is running in Normal mode, you can use this procedure to make the load
transfer from inverter output to maintenance bypass.
1. Before performing this procedure, you should check the LCD information first,
and make sure the bypass is normal and synchronizes with the inverter. Otherwise,
it may result in the load power interruption for a while.
2. To perform this function, user should select either a single POD or configure the
MCB in maintenance bypass.
2. Use the maintenance bypass signal cable (accessory of POD) to connect Dry Contact Port
3 of the UPS with interlock port on the POD. See Figure 5-8.

3. Remove the fixing screws of the baffle of the maintenance bypass switch, then rotate the
baffle upwards till it is completely fixed, finally fasten the fixing screws.
At this time, the system Interlock function is activated, the UPS will transfer to internal
bypass mode, and you should confirm that the UPS has been transferred to internal bypass
mode.
5. Open the input MCB, maintenance bypass MCB and output MCB on the front panel of the
POD. Perform the maintenance operation after the UPS complete shutdown.
Dry contact port 4 can achieve the same function as dry contact port 3 via the
above steps.
After UPS maintenance, you can use this procedure to transfer the load from the
maintenance bypass to the inverter.
If the user configures the maintenance bypass switch, the UPS must be manually
transferred to the bypass mode after UPS maintenance and then close the output
switch. Failure to observe this may cause damage to the equipment..
1. Confirm that the baffle of the maintenance bypass switch has been rotated upwards and
firmly.
2. Close the mains input MCB and bypass input MCB on the front panel of the POD. At this
time, the UPS will power on again and operate at bypass mode.
3. Confirm that the UPS has worked in Bypass mode, then close the output MCB on the front
panel of the POD.
4. Open the maintenance bypass MCB on the front panel of the POD. Rotate the baffle of the
maintenance bypass switch to its original position, then fasten the fixing screws.
5. Press the power button on the operation and display panel of the UPS, and the UPS
transfers to Inverter mode.
For UPS system which the distribute power is accomplished by the user, if you need to
isolate the UPS from AC power, disconnect the external input MCB. (If the main and bypass
are independently powered, close the two input MCBs).
Cut off the maintenance power, in order to prevent the physical injury.
5.4 REPO
Located at rear of the UPS, the REPO port is designed to switch off the UPS in emergency
conditions (such as fire, flood). The system will turn off the rectifier, inverter and stop
powering the load immediately (inverter and bypass output included), and the battery stops
charging or discharging. Just unplug the terminal connecting to the REPO if you need
emergency power-off.
If the mains input is present, the UPS control circuit will remain active; however, the output is
closed. To remove all mains power from the UPS, the external main input MCB should be
disconnected.
The UPS will automatically restart and recover output power supply:
After the Auto Restart is delayed (default: 0s). During the Auto Restart delay, the UPS
will charge the battery to provide a safety margin for equipment shutdown if input

Only through the correct password (default: 111111) verification can you conduct the
parameters of the UPS.
The communication ports include: intelligent card port, dry contact port, built-in port, 232
port, control port and USB port.
It is recommended to make the signal cable length be less than 3m and keep away
from the power cable.
UPS provides an intelligent card port (see Figure 6-1), which is used to install the
communication device options, including SIC card, RDU-SIC card, UNITY card, 485 card. The
intelligent card port and USB port can be used at the same time.
SIC card
SIC card is a network management card, which makes the intelligent devices (such as UPS,
air conditioner, static transfer system (STS), sever power management system (SPM), and so
on) produced by Vertiv have network communication capability. The SIC card can also be
used with the Network Shutdown designed by Vertiv to provide safe automatic shutdown
function for the computer, in which the Network Shutdown has been installed, to protect data
and reduce loss.
Refer to the corresponding user manual for the installation and operation guide.
The RDU-SIC card is a network management card. It can make the intelligent equipment
(such as UPS, PDU and so on) developed by Vertiv have the capacity of network
communication. The SIC card can also connect to the environment monitoring equipment,
including IRM series or 1-Wire series temperature sensor, temperature & humidity sensor or
dry contact signal input & detecting sensors. In case of an intelligent equipment alarm, it
notifies the user by multiple ways: recording, sending a Trap message, sending an E-Mail or
sending an SMS.
The RDU-SIC card provides four approaches to monitor the intelligent equipment and
equipment room environment:
Web browser. Monitor your intelligent equipment and equipment room environment
through the Web server function provided by the SIC card
The SIC card can also work with the Network Shutdown computer safe shutdown program
developed by Vertiv to provide automatic safe shutdown function for your computer installed
with Network Shutdown, so as to prevent data loss.
Refer to the corresponding user manual for the installation and operation guide.
IS-UNITY-DP card
The IS-UNITY-DP card should be used together with Liebert® ITA2 UPS provided by Vertiv.
For further description of the IS-UNITY-DP card, refer to Liebert IntelliSlotTM Unity Card User
Manual-Web, SNMP, Modbus, BACnet, YDN23.
Provide the dry contacts alarm information, including: batteries, bypass, low battery, the
alarm, fault and UPS signal, which is used to communicate with remote monitoring system or
with Liebert MultiLink® software used together. Regardless of the current mode of operation,
the card can also accept input signals to shut down the UPS.
Please refer to the corresponding user manual for installation and operation information.

The I/O dry contact port capacity: 125Vdc, 0.5A; 30Vdc, 1A.
Pin11 and Pin12 reserves the corresponding terminals for configuring the REPO
function. The REPO device also needs the shielded cable to connect to the Normally
Open remote REPO switch between the two terminals. If not necessary, you should
disconnect Pin9 and Pin10. Pin9 and Pin10 have been shorted before delivery.
The EPO action of the UPS will close the rectifier, inverter and static bypass, but it
cannot disconnect the UPS mains input inside. If you want to disconnect the UPS
completely, just disconnect the upstream input MCB when generating the EPO.
In emergency conditions, close the REPO switch (prepared by users) to shut down the
rectifier and inverter, and the UPS is powered off. In normal condition, the REPO switch
cannot cut off the UPS input power. If a switch of electronic control tripping function is
adopted at the UPS input, the REPO switch can help the switch trip and thus cut off the UPS
input power. The position of the REPO switch is shown in Figure 1-3, and the REPO cable
connection is shown in Figure 6-3.
1. Loosen the '11' and '12' connection terminals of the REPO port.
2. Insert the two ends of the copper core cables with the insulation leather peeled into the '11'
and '12' connection terminals of the REPO port, and press down the terminals. The REPO
cable is complete. Ensure that the REPO cable is firmly connected to avoid no action or
wrong action of the REPO caused by accidental dropping or infirm contact.
When the REPO switch at the user end closes, the UPS will generate an alarm and cut off the
output immediately, and the UPS will not return to the normal operation state automatically.
At this point, you must change the REPO switch state, and power on the UPS manually.
Insert one end of the USB communication cable to the USB port (see Figure 1-3) on the rear
panel of the UPS, and connect the other end to the USB port of the computer.
After the connection, you need to install the USB drive program in the installation disk.
Insert one end of the DB9 serial port communication cable to the DB9 serial port (see port 5
in Figure 1-3) on the rear panel of the UPS, and connect the other end to the DB9 port of the
computer.
The user can select Modbus/Jbus protocol function or sensor function via the 'Settings' on
the LCD.
Connect network cables: Connect one end of the network cable to the Ethernet port of the
UPS, and connect the other end to the built-in Ethernet port (or the switch port, Router port)
of the computer.
Set network parameters: The user should change the parameters (IP address, subnet mask,
gateway address) of the computer or the UPS, so as to make the computer communicate the
UPS well.
To change the network parameters of the UPS, operate them via the 'Settings'->’Monitor’, as
shown in Figure 6-4.
Open the browser (like IE), input the IPv4 address at the address bar to the login interface.
After inputting the correct user name and password (default name: user, password: 111111),
you can monitor the UPS working status.

This chapter focuses on the UPS maintenance, including the fan maintenance, battery
maintenance, UPS cleaning, UPS state check, UPS function check.
Never attempt to carry out maintenance on the UPS while it is on line. Ensure that
the UPS has been switched off completely when performing any internal
maintenance operations on it.
The UPS fans are expected to run for 20000 hours ~ 40000 hours continuously. The higher
the ambient temperature, the shorter the fan life is.
During the UPS operation, please verify the fan status once every half year by confirming
that air blows out from the ventilation holes on the rear panel.
Charge the battery for at least 12 hours, if the battery hasn't been charged for three
months at specified ambient temperature, or two months at high ambient
temperature
