The UPS continually monitors itself and the incoming utility power, and automatically
switches between these modes as required, without operator intervention. The
sophisticated detection and switching logic inside the UPS ensures that operating mode
changes are automatic and transparent to the critical load, while internal monitoring
systems indicate the current mode of operation. The UPS switches operating modes in
response to these system events:
쑺
A
command
is an intervention that is externally initiated by an operator or by some site
action. A command causes the UPS to switch operating modes; it usually does not
require any further action.
쑺
A
notice
is a minor system event that may or may not require attention.
쑺
An
alarm
is a system event that requires immediate operator intervention.
System events, alarm horns, and indicator lights are described in Chapter 12, “Responding
to System Events.”
The following paragraphs describe the differences in the three UPS operating modes, using
block diagrams to show the power flow during each mode of operation.
