Setting Battery Type (JP2 - Gel/Liquid)
The Trace UR-UPS can charge GEL or LIQUID batteries.
The different types of batteries require specific charging
voltages.
Refer to Table 2-1, on page 10, for the bulk,
absorption, and float mode charging values of the
Trace UR-UPS.
Determine what type of battery will be used before
changing the battery-type jumper. The default setting is
for Gel batteries.
If your battery chemistry is something other than Gel or
Liquid, contact your battery manufacturer for information
on the best voltage level to use for charging. If they do not
support the voltage levels indicated on Table 2-1 on page 9,
use different batteries.
To Select GEL Battery Charging (Default)
• JUMPER ON: Place the jumper on both contact pins.
To Select LIQUID Battery Charging
• JUMPER OFF: Remove the jumper from both contact
pins and place it over only one of the pins. This will keep
the jumper available for future use.
