5. FAULT TROUBLE SHOOTING
1.
If the UPS is not operational after Eskom has come back on after load shedding then it could
be one of three scenario’s:
a. The Eskom power has been off an extended period and the batteries have gone flat due to
the fact that even in standby mode the UPS will still be drawing a charge from the batteries.
b. The UPS is in need of a software upgrade to correct the fault
c. There is a fault with the batteries.
If the system is non-operational (no lights are on) once the custodian enters the cubicle the
following steps need to be completed:
1)
Ensure the breaker on the side of the unit is turned down.
2)
Check that all the LCD display lights are off.
3)
Ensure that the UPS is plugged into Eskom and the Eskom power to the UPS is off.
4)
Turn the ATM off if it is still on.
5)
Plug the ATM and V-Sat into Eskom and power up to ensure no fault with the ATM.
6)
Power down the ATM if there is no fault.
7)
Re-connect the ATM and V-Sat into the adaptor supplied which is connected to the UPS.
8)
Flip the breaker on the side of the UPS into the up position.
9)
The unit will turn on using the batteries.
10) The UPS LCD display should state “Please wait….”
11) The LCD display then states “UPS Turned Off …. Calibrating”
12) The LCD display then states “UPS Turned Off”
13) Then depress the center button (green) and left button (yellow) for 3 seconds.
14) The LCD Display will then state “UPS Turned On”
15) Once this phase is completed the UPS should be in operational mode.
16) Power up the ATM without turning on Eskom.
17) Once the ATM is on turn the Eskom plug that is connected to the UPS on.
18) The yellow light should after 3 seconds go out and the green light should come on. This
indicates that the UPS is running on mains power.
After 5 minutes when both the ATM and the UPS are operational follow this procedure:
1)
Switch the Eskom plug that is connected to the UPS off.
2)
After 3 seconds the green light will go out and the yellow light will come on. This implicates
that the UPS is running on batteries.
3)
Ensure that the power supply to the ATM has not been disengaged and that it is operating
normally.
4)
Wait for 2 minutes then switch the Eskom plug to the UPS back on.
5)
After 3 – 5 seconds the yellow light will go off and the green light will come back on.
The unit has been tested if only briefly that it will switch from Eskom to the batteries should a
power failure occur. The unit should now be fully operational.
