Backup2 Source Type
The factory default setting is UPS. The backup2 power source inlet, located on the
front of the UTS is labeled UPS Inlet as a UPS is the preferred BACKUP2 power
source.
The system setup has three options for backup power:
Generator
UPS (recommended BACKUP2 power source)
Other
Use the down/up arrow keys to select the preferred backup power source.
NOTE: It is recommended that a UPS be used as BACKUP2 SOURCE TYPE. A UPS provides continuous
battery backup power during utility brownouts, sags, surges, and power outages.
Without the use of a UPS, fully automatic operation of the UTS cannot be guaranteed.
If a UPS is not selected for the BACKUP2 power source be sure that the UNINTERRUPTIBLE option under
Circuit Setup Option 2 is not selected.
Backup2 (UPS) Power Rating
Once the BACKUP2 SOURCE TYPE has been selected, that source type will
appear in the power rating display message. Use the down/up arrow keys to set the
correct power rating for the backup2 power source connected to the UTS.
There are three levels for rapid rating increment changes. Press and hold the down or
up arrow key to adjust the power rating and to move through the three levels described here. To revert back to level 1
release the down arrow key then press and hold the down arrow key.
Level 1 increases or decreases the rating by 5 Watts.
Level 2 increases or decreases the rating by 10 Watts.
Level 3 increases or decreases the rating by 100 Watts.
