Check the condition of the
batteries?
The results of the most recent battery test are stored at menu 3 1 2 1. To run a test of
battery condition, go to menu 3 1 1 and press the button. When the test is complete,
the results are again stored in the Battery Results parameter.
Change the battery
low-voltage alarm
threshold? (or any other
alarm or operating limit?)
This parameter requires a trained person, knowing the correct password, to perform.
Without the proper password, you are able to only view operating limits, not change
them. Only authorized personnel should change these limits. For information about
making this or other password-protected adjustments, contact your service
representative.
Apply power to the load if
the unit will not operate?
Turn the optional external bypass switch to either the SERVICE or the LINE position. In
these two positions, utility power flows directly to the load. In the SERVICE position, the
UPS does not receive utility power and may be worked on for maintenance purposes.
Turn the external bypass
switch?
If the bypass switch is a Make-Before-Break type, you must press the red button
beside the switch before turning the switch.
Set the UPS to turn on in
High Efficiency mode?
Go to menu 4 1. Select the system mode desired at power-on by pressing the
or button. When the display shows Auto High Efficiency, press the button.

The Eaton 9170+ system will not change operating modes as a timed event. But, if you
wish to conserve energy, before leaving for the weekend, go to menu 4 1. Select High
Efficiency and press the button. After the weekend, return to the Automatic mode by
going to menu 4 1 again, and selecting Auto followed by pressing the button.

redundancy?
To view or change the redundancy level, go to menu 4 2 5.

Physically install or remove battery modules as described on page 67. Record capacity
of external battery strings (in all external battery cabinets) by going to menu 4 2 6.
Add/delete one or more
power modules?
Physically install or remove power modules as described on page 67. The system
operating software senses the number and location of all power modules in the

menu 4 2 5 and change the level of system redundancy.
