First Time:
CHARGE BATTERIES FOR 6 HOURS BEFORE CONNECTING YOUR EQUIPMENTS TO UPS
•
This product leaves factory with battery fully charged, however during transportation and storage it may loose a
non determined part of its charge; therefore we recommend plugging it to Power Line for 6 hours before using the
UPS.
•
Install this unit in any protected environment with a dust free air flow. Also corrosive vapours and conductive
contaminants must be avoided. Do not use UPS outdoors or where either temperature or humidity exceeds tech
specs. Install UPS at least 10 inches away from your monitor to avoid magnetic interference.
1.- Plug input AC power cord to an appropriate power outlet with Line-Neutral-Ground contacts.
•
Some models come with input power-cord with appropriate plug for your country.
•
3KVA in 120V could come with input terminal block. For 3KVA-120V models input cable to be
connected to input Terminal Block must be AWG12 or wider (for lengths shorter than 50 feet – 15m).
Wire size is strongly affected by length and temperature. Input wire must be selected and installed by
qualified personnel according to local regulations.
2.- First time leave UPS recharging batteries during 6 hours before connecting your devices to the UPS to let
batteries recover charging level to offer full battery backup time.
3.- Connect your devices to be protected to UPS outlets. Take care to not overload UPS output by connecting
devices with higher power ratings than UPS power capacity. Laser printers, scanners and copiers frequently have
two different power ratings: in stand-by power ratings are very low compared with consumption rating during
operation. If this kind of products will be connected to the UPS operation power rating must be considering to size
total power consumption to be connected to UPS.
4.- EPO Function: Emergency Power Off function allows to power off UPS outlets when EPO input is open. When
EPO port is closed EPO function is disable. When EPO function is activated UPS will perform following actions:
a) Power Off all outlets,
b) Switch to STAND-BY mode,
c) Acoustic alarm is activated as continuous beep
d) Warning message Nº 20 is indicated on LCD.
To disable EPO mode and recovering normal mode contact switch or jumper in EPO port must be closed and UPS
must be powered On by selecting ON push button.
EXTERNAL BATTERIES OPTION
OPTIMA models with EX mark (like OPTIMA 3K-EX or OPTIMA-RACK 3K-EX) are able to be connected to
external battery cabinets (EX-BATT) to offer longer backup times.
This kind of models has internal batteries as other OPTIMA models but they can also be connected at any moment
to EX-BATT supplied by XMART.
Special cables to connect EX-BATT to UPS are supplied inside the box of EX-BATT.

3.3.- INSTRUCTIONS TO CONNECT EXTERNAL BATTERIES
1)
Place EX-BATT case close to UPS. Only XMART approved EX-BATT can be connected to UPS EX
series.
2)
Check DC breakers are in OFF position (circuit OPEN)
3)
Connect UPS to first EX-BATT using XMART approved DC cable.
4)
If more than one EX-BATT will be connected, then connect first EX-BATT to second EX-BATT and so
on in that way to other EX-BATT.
5)
After all EX-BATT are connected, switch to ON position all DC breakers located in EX-BATT.
Important Note:
It is not recommendable to connect more than 3 external battery packs to the UPS since recharging time could
be too long.
External Battery Cabinet Characteristics:
Model: EX-BAT-R3
Total Batteries:
12 pieces per cabinet: 2 internal packs of 6 batteries 12V-9AH
Voltage DC:
82.1Vdc +/- 1%
Application:
OPTIMA-Rack 3K “EX”
4. CONFIGURABLE PARAMETERS
Any configuration modification must be applied with UPS connected to AC line but in OFF or STAND-BY mode.
This UPS can be configured to work under some different modes. Some important functions can also be
configured in CONFIGURATION MODE:
a)
Normal Mode: Also known as AC MODE. Under this mode UPS works as ONLINE UPS. UPS outlets are
supplied by AC power generated by UPS inverter circuit offering a clean power to your devices.
b)
ECO Mode: Under this mode UPS works as OFF-LINE UPS. UPS outlets are supplied by AC input
source. UPS supervises input source to switch to ONLINE mode only when input source is out of range
This is not a recommendable mode for those critical applications that require ONLINE UPS.
Default mode set as factory is NORMAL MODE (Online UPS).
c)
Output Voltage: It can be configured to any of 4 available values:
In 120Vac Models: 110Vac, 115Vac, 120Vac, 127Vac,
In 220Vac Models: 208Vac, 220Vac, 230Vac ó 240Vac
d)
Output Frequency: It can be selected to 50Hz or 60Hz. Default configuration allows auto-selection to
match with frequency of input AC source.
NOTE: When conversion frequency mode is activated UPS power capacity can be reduced.
e) Programmable Outputs: There are 2 group of outlets:
•
Standard Outlets: They works as expected in any UPS. This kind of outlets under battery keep powered until
batteries reach very low level or up to UPS receives power off command from software.
•
Programmable Outlets: If programmable outlets function is configured, programmable outlets can be
powered off by internal timer before UPS detects very low battery level. Most common application for
programmable outlets is for connecting non critical devices to them so that backup time can be longer for
those critical devices connected in standard outlets.
