SMARTZONE UPS USER MANUAL

UPS States
The UPS automatically transitions to different states based on internal or external
events; the user may also force the UPS into some states through one of the user
interfaces. There are eight different states that the UPS may be in. Refer to
C: State Transitions Based on External Events
for state transitions based on
input/output events.
Normal State
The UPS will go into the normal state when the UPS is set to Normal Mode at setup
time. This is the default mode and state that the UPS will power up in on new units from
the factory. If the UPS is set for Normal Mode, the Normal state is the default state
where the UPS will return to after the internal or external event has been cleared or the
forced state has expired.
If an internal or external event occurs while operating in the normal state, the UPS will
automatically transition to battery, bypass, fault, or battery test state depending on the
event.
ECO State
The UPS will go into the ECO state when the UPS is set to ECO Mode at setup time. If
the UPS is set for ECO Mode, the ECO state is the default state where the UPS will
return to after the internal or external event has been cleared or the forced state has
expired.
If an internal or external event occurs while operating in the ECO state, the UPS will
automatically transition to battery, fault, or battery test state depending on the event.
CF State
The UPS will go into CF state when the UPS is set to CF Mode at setup time. If the UPS
is set for CF Mode, the CF state is the default state where the UPS will return to after
the internal or external event has been cleared or the forced state has expired.
If an internal or external event occurs while operating in the CF state, the UPS will
automatically transition to battery, bypass, fault, or battery test state depending on the
event.
Gen State
The UPS will go into Gen state when the UPS is set to Generator Mode at setup time. If
the UPS is set for Generator Mode, the Gen state is where the UPS will return to after
the internal or external event has been cleared or the forced state has expired.
