Running Automatic Battery Tests
Battery tests rely on backfeeding the utility, using the utility as a load.
Some sites may choose to disable battery testing if their source is not
capable of being backfed. Examples of such sources include generators,
other UPSs, and other stiff or soft sources.
If a test is run on a source not capable of being backfed, the BladeUPS
will abort the test (due to utility failure) and will maintain the load and log
the event. Further consequences depend on the source (for example,
another UPS feeding the BladeUPS may trip off).
