INTRODUCTION AND SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Congratulations on your choice of the UPStation GXT™ Uninterruptible Power
System (UPS). It provides conditioned power to microcomputers and other
sensitive electronic equipment.
Upon generation, AC power is clean and stable. However, during transmission
and distribution it may be subject to voltage sags, spikes, or complete power
failure, which may interrupt computer operations, cause data loss, or even
damage equipment. The UPStation GXT protects equipment from these
disturbances.
The UPStation GXT is a compact, “on-line” UPS. An “on-line” UPS continuously
conditions and regulates its output voltage, whether the mains power is present
or not. It supplies connected equipment with clean sinewave power. Sensitive
electronic equipment operates best from sinewave power. The GXT
6000/10000T-230X models have an additional output isolation transformer.
For ease of use, the UPStation GXT contains a light emitting diode (LED) display
to indicate either “load percentage” or “battery capacity” depending upon the
mode of operation. It also provides self-diagnostics, a combination On/Alarm
Silence/Manual Battery Test button, a combination Off/Bypass button, and two
levels of alarms when the unit is operating on battery.
The UPStation GXT has an interface port for communications between the UPS
and a LAN server or other computer system. This port provides detailed
operating information including voltages, currents, and alarm status to the host
system when used in conjunction with the SiteNet® 2 software. SiteNet® 2
software can also remotely control UPS operation.
MAJOR COMPONENTS
TRANSIENT VOLTAGE SURGE SUPPRESSION (TVSS) AND EMI/RFI
FILTERS
These UPS components provide surge protection, and filter both electromagnetic
interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). They minimize any
surges or interference present in the mains line and keep the sensitive
equipment protected.
