b). Upper Bypass Limit - When operating in bypass, this is the highest voltage the UPS will supply to the connected load.
Figure 1.5 - After (Output Voltage: 220 VAC) |
c). Lower Bypass Limit - When operating in bypass, this is the lowest voltage the UPS will supply to the connected load.
d). High Transfer Voltage - On UPS devices that do NOT support bypass, this is the highest voltage the UPS will supply to the connected load. On UPS devices that support "AVR Trim", it will be reported when the "Input Voltage" is higher than this value.
e). Low Transfer Voltage - On UPS devices that do NOT support bypass, this is the lowest voltage the UPS will supply to the connected load. On UPS devices that support "AVR Boost", it will be reported when the "Input Voltage" is lower than this value.
f). Power Quality Sensitivity - The sensitivity of the UPS to distortions in the line voltage.
2). General Settings

b). Audible Alarm - With this field, you can enable or disable the UPS audible alarm that sounds in response to power problems.
c). UPS Output Load Threshold - Each UPS has a maximum rating, for example, 5000 VA. Use this field to set the preferred highest percentage of this rating used by the load. For example, if this threshold is set to 70(%), when the load consumes more then 3500 VA (70% of 5000), the "Output Load Threshold Exceeded" event is generated.
d). High Internal Temp Threshold - When this temperature is exceeded, an "UPS Internal Temperature Threshold Exceeded" event is generated (by default, this event causes a shutdown). This temperature should be greater than (or at least equal to) the "High Internal Temp Warning Threshold". Set this value above the normal temperature range of the UPS. If you don't, the "Internal Temperature Exceeds Critical Range" event will be continually generated.
e). High Internal Temp Warning Threshold - When this temperature is exceeded, a "UPS Internal Temperature Warning" event is generated.
Wow, what a decent support for the readers and ups users! The helpful guidelines for setting ups details you clarified in this post totally admirable. I would like to be thankful for the quality post. The ins and out related to ups setting using powerchute business like power setting and general setting you uncovered here were extremely useful. I appreciate your great work. Here I also would like to mention about Bowtie and its excellent performance in this field. They provide UPS critical solutions. They are experts on risk and understand how critical a UPS module or bank of modules are to your loads. We have an extensive national qualified network of factory-trained UPS technicians with Engineering oversite. These UPS programs are fully customizable with your other maintenance program at very competitive pricing. If some guys here feel interest to get more info about their service, surely welcome to take a tour to their UPS Management system. Anyway, I really enjoyed your unique piece of work. It's incomparable.
