UPS operations  
Modes of operation  
The UPS has five modes of operation:  
• Standby mode (on page 38 ) 
• Operate mode  (on page 38 ) 
• Configure mode  (on page 39 ) 
• Battery mode  (on page 39 ) 
• Auto -Bypass mode  (on page 39 )  
S tandby mode  
In Standby mode:  
• No power is available at the UPS output receptacles.  
• The UPS charges the batteries as necessary. 
The UPS can be placed in Standby mode when the UPS is in Ope rate mode (on page 38 ). 
To place the UPS in Standby mode, press and hold the Off button until the audible alarm sounds and the 
Utility LED flashes. Power to the load ceases.  
When fault conditions occur in Standby mode, the UPS enters  Converter Off mode  (" UPS is in Converter 
Off mode " on page 54 ). 
  
  IMPORTANT:
  While in Standby mode, the UPS maintains the charge on the batteri es, but no 
power is available at the output receptacles. The UPS remains in Standby mode until an 
alternate mode is selected or until utility power is removed.  
  
For the location of buttons, see "UPS front panel controls  (on page 8 )." 
For the location of LEDs, see " UPS front panel LED indicators  (on page 8 )." 
 
Operate mode  
In Operate mode:  
• Power is available at the UPS receptacles.  
• The UPS charges the batteries as necessary.  
The UPS can be plac ed in Operate mode if the UPS is powered up and in Standby mode  (on page 38 ). 
To place the UPS in Operate mode, press the On button. The Utility LED illuminates, indicating that power 
is available at the UPS output receptacles. The U PS acknowledges compliance with a short beep. 
If the UPS is off (no LEDs are illuminated), press the On and Battery Start buttons simultaneously to start the

39 ) or Standby mode  (on page 38 ). 
In Configure mode:  
• Power is available at the UPS receptacles when entered from Operate mode. Power is not available

Battery mod e 
When utility power is lost, the UPS automatically transfers from Operate mode  (on page  38) to Battery 
mode.  
In Battery mode, the UPS supplies power without being connected to utility power. When utility power 
becomes available, the  UPS returns to Operate mode.  
After the UPS is initially connected to utility power, it can be started on battery power thereafter. To start 
the UPS in Battery mode (no utility power present), press and hold the On and Battery Start buttons 
simultaneously  for three seconds.  
 
Auto -Bypass mode  
The UPS automatically enters Auto -Bypass mode when one of the following conditions occurs:  
• The power from the UPS reaches a percentage greater than 110 percent for more than 10 cycles or 
between 103 percent and 110 percent for more than 30 seconds.  
• The UPS detects an overtemperature condition (on page 56 ). 
• The UPS detects a fan failure.  
• There is an internal UPS failure while in Operate mode  (on page 38 ).  
All internal faults transfer the UPS to either Auto -Bypass or  Converter Off mode  (" UPS is in Converter Off 
mode " on page 54 ), depending on whether the load is being powered at the time the fault is detected. 
The UPS can be forced to Converter Off mode from Auto -Bypass mode by pressing the Off button, and 
can be sent back to Auto -Bypass mode by pressing the On button.
