Press the left or right arrow on the “Battery Group” line to select 1 to 8 for the number of
EBP units connected to the UPS. The default value is 1 EBP.
The Boost/Float Conversion feature is a battery life optimization tool. Batteries age at
different rates, causing an imbalance in the batteries. Panduit recommends boosting
charge unbalanced batteries on a regular basis to extend the life of the battery.
By default, this feature is disabled (set to 0 months) on a new system with new
batteries. Panduit recommends enabling this feature 6 months after the battery has
been installed. Select the appropriate number for this value (1-24) based on the Cell
Float Voltage setting. Increase the frequency of this setting (set this number to a lower
month value) for a lower cell float voltage. (For a cell float voltage of 2.20, 2.21 or
2.22V, set this number to 3 months.) Decrease the frequency of this setting (set this
number to a higher month value) for a higher cell float voltage. (For a cell float voltage
of 2.28 or 2.29V, set this number to 6 months.) Use the following table for
recommended Boost/Float Conversion settings.
