System Events
When the UPS system is running in Online mode, it continually monitors itself and the
incoming utility power. In Battery or Bypass modes, the UPS may issue alarms to let
you know exactly what event caused the change from Online mode. System events
on the UPS can be indicated by horns, lights, messages, or all three.
Select
EVENTS
from the menu bar on the main menu screen to look at the active
events screen. This screen shows any currently active alarms, notices, or commands.
For more information on using the events screen, see paragraph 7.2.6 on page 7-6.
System Event Horns
– The system event horn beeps to alert an operator that an
event needing attention is taking place. The horn cycles at a half-second rate.
System Event Indicators
– The status indicators on the UPS control panel work with
the event horn to let the operator know when the UPS is operating in any mode
other than Online. Only the ONLINE indicator is visible during normal UPS system
operation. The other indicators illuminate to indicate alarms or events. When an
alarm occurs, first check these indicators to see what type of event has taken
place. For descriptions of the status indicators, see paragraph 7.2.1.
System Event Messages
– When a system event occurs, a message appears on the
LCD in the UPS status area. This message is also written to the Active Events Log
and may be added to the History Log. The messages are divided into four
categories: alarms, notices, status, and commands.
