- SECURITY ONE UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER MANAGER
6.0 – OPERATION
Important Note: In order to operate the UPM, you must first plug the battery enable plug(s) into the
battery enable socket(s) on the rear of the UPM.
On/Off Button
The On/Off button is a dual function control:
v
When the UPM is off and AC power is present to the UPM input, pressing the On/Off button for more
than 3 seconds will turn the UPM on. If battery enable plug(s) are installed, pressing the On/Off switch
for 3 seconds or more will "cold-start" the UPM on its internal battery.
v
When the UPM is on, pressing the On/Off button for more than 3 seconds will turn off the UPM and
output power.
Test/Silence Button
The Test/Silence button is a dual function control:
v
Pressing the Test/Silence button when AC power is present and the UPM is operating causes the UPM
to enter a self test mode in which it tests both battery and inverter for a few seconds before returning to
the AC supply. We recommend you close all open files before initiating self-test.
v
When AC power fails, the UPM warns you with an audible alarm. The Test/Silence button is used to
silence the alarm. When battery power begins to run low, the audible alarm will automatically return
and beep at a faster rate.
Load Monitor
The Load Monitor is a 5-segment LED display that shows the current load percentage. The first four LED's
each indicate approximately 20% load. When illuminated, the final LED indicates that your connected
equipment is consuming 110% of the UPM rated capacity.
Battery Charge Monitor
The Battery Charge Monitor is a 5-segment LED display that shows the charge capacity of the internal
battery from zero to 100%. Each LED indicates approximately 20% of full charge.
Status Monitor
The status monitor is a row of six individual LED's that each indicate the status of a part of your UPM
system. The first three LED's work with Security One's Voltage Manager. All six LED's are explained in the
following table.
