SDU AC-A Series

A272-290 Rev. 5 07/2018

7.0 Operating Instructions

7.1 TURNING ON THE UPS

• 

Press the POWER ON/OFF/TEST button for more than 2 second until you hear the “3 quick beeps” and 
the LEDs turn ON.

Note: If utility power is not present, the UPS will be in back-up mode. The load will be powered from the 
internal batteries until the discharge point is reached.

7.2 TURNING OFF THE UPS

• 

Hold the POWER ON/OFF/TEST button until the LEDs turn OFF.

7.3 ALARM

• 

Factory default setting is alarm enabled.

• 

To enable/disable Alarm:

• 

When the UPS is in back-up mode, press the POWER ON/OFF/TEST button for at least 1 second to silence 
the alarm (this function is disabled when the UPS status is either LOW BATTERY or OVERLOAD MODE). To 
re-enable the alarm, press the POWER ON/OFF/TEST button for at least 1 second. Additionally, you can 
enable/disable the alarm via UPSMON Software.

7.4 SELF TEST

•  This UPS has a self diagnostic feature that verifies both the operation of the UPS and the condition of the 

battery.

• 

In AC mode, press and release the POWER ON/OFF/TEST button for at least 1 second to perform a self-
test. During the self-test, the UPS momentarily operates in back-up mode (YELLOW LED will illuminate 
momentarily then goes back to GREEN). If the UPS passes the self-test, it returns to AC mode.  

• 

If the YELLOW LED does not illuminate momentarily, please contact SolaHD Technical Support or your 
local SolaHD distributor for a replacement.

• 

Additionally a self-test can be ran via UPSMON software.

7.5 GREEN MODE

• 

Factory default setting is Green Mode disabled. 

• 

Green Mode is a feature to reserve battery energy in low load conditions. In back-up mode and if the 
load level is less than approximately 2% ~ 4% (or 60W), the UPS will shutdown to save battery in 180 
seconds. If power is restored within 180 seconds, the UPS will return to AC mode.

• 

Green Mode Enable/Disable:

• 

Green Mode can be ENABLED or DISABLED by pressing the POWER ON/OFF/TEST at start-up per TABLE 2:
