Before starting a unit some basic rules should be respected, in order to avoid injury or damage.

After placing the UPS(s) at it's final destination and having it unpacked, remove the side- and protection panels.

With access to all parts, a thorough mechanical inspection should ensure the unit(s) has no damage or loose bolts,
screws, nuts or cables.

Remove transit brackets. Insure that the transit brackets and bolts on all transformers and inductors have been
removed. These brackets and bolts are bright yellow in color.

Connect then all Input / Output cables according the instructions in the operating manual.

Inspect fans, insure that the fans spin freely.

Check all fuses ohmically.

Use the commissioning report, to take note of checked items and measured values during commissioning.Note: If any problems
with this installation are found that pose a threat to persons or equipment, do not proceed until the problem has been
corrected.

Make sure all breakers are open (Q1, Q2, Q3a, Q4) then connect Mains voltage to the UPS (both if separate for
Rectifier andBypass).

Power supply starts a the display shows a selftest, at the end of which should result "Self test ok".

Verify in Parameters for correct Date and Time.

Verify in the Service Alarms for the presence of the code 9D04, which indicates the correct function of important parts
of the control board IM 0007. In case you find codes 9D00, 9D01, 0D02, 9D03 instead, a malfunction on the control
board is present. Change the control board !!

Warning: Main Input Feed CB is closed and thus supplying LETHAL voltages to the system. Caution: It is recommanded
that the load supplied by the UPS remains OFF until commissioning has been completed.

Verify for correct phase rotation on power interface IM 8820 or IM 0035.

Measure and record all Power supply voltages on Power supply board IM 8845 or IM 0076.

Verify correct Power wiring. In a parallel system the outputs of all units must be connected. (Customers load not yet
connected)
Close Q2 on 1st Unit.
Measure on 1st Unit with Voltmeter Phase L1 Mains - Phase L1 Load connection, followed by the phases L2 and L3.
Measure then the same on all other units in case of a parallel system. Should you measure voltage you may have a
miss wired output.

Open Q2.

Low voltage startup


In many occasions it might be useful to test the function of Rectifier and
Inverter with a voltage low enough to avoid damage in case of malfunction, in
particular to the power modules, before running the UPS in nominal voltage.
Find below a description for how to proceed.Important: At the end of Low
voltage startup the UPS must be shutdown completely, including power supply,
to reset some Parameters to their original value.

Open Q1 and Q4, disconnect Battery

Connect Mains (Utility power) to the UPS.


Enter third level Parameters, (see Password) and change the values of the
following 2 Parameters:
- Parameter 217: 21000 (17300 in case of 12 - pulse Rectifier !!!)
(Reduces the Rectifier output voltage)
- Parameter 112: 00050 (Limits the Inverter voltage to 50 Volts)

Connect a Voltmeter to the DC - Link (UDC) and an Oscilloscope to the Inverter


ouput.

Close Q4 to start the Rectifier. The DC Voltage should now gradually increase.
See table below.

Press now the key Inverter ON. As the Inverter starts, the DC Voltage decreases
while the AC Voltage of the Inverter should be a clean sinewave.

If everything looks ok, proceed and increase gradually the DC Voltage by

reducing the value in Parameter 217, until you reach again the previously
installed default value (4000). See in the table below the resulting voltages
(approximate !!!).

Att. Switch Inverter and Rectifier OFF (open Q4) before changing Parameter
217.

An example of the approximately resulting voltages is shown in the table below.


Should at any time of the procedure result a deformation of the Inverter output

sinewave, do not continue, but check first for correct drive pulses of Rectifier
and Inverter. If necessary change the Main control board IM 0007 / 0057 or one
of the driver boards.

Set Parameter 112 for nominal Inverter output voltage. (230V).Important: At

the end of the procedure you must either shut down the UPS completely,
including power supply, or make a reset with PB2 on the main control board IM
0007, always with DC - Capacitors discharged !!!!!!

The values shown in this table are indicational, in particular the values in
Parameter 217 should be choosen on dependence of an actual existing
problem !!!

Once the Rectifier is running at floating voltage, stop the Inverter and change
Parameter 112 for the Inverter output voltage, back to it's nominal value.
