Chapter 3 Understanding UPS Operation
The UPS functions automatically to supply AC electrical power to the critical load. The UPS
always operates in one of three modes:
A In Normal mode, the critical load is supplied by the inverter, which derives its power
from rectified utility AC power. In this mode, the rectifier also provides charging current
for the battery.
A In Bypass mode, the critical load is directly supported by utility power.
A In Battery mode, the battery cabinet provides DC power, which maintains inverter
operation. The battery supports the critical load.
The UPS continually monitors itself and the incoming utility power, and automatically
switches between these modes as required, with no operator intervention. The
sophisticated detection and switching logic inside the UPS ensures that operating mode
changes are automatic and transparent to the critical load. The UPS switches operating
modes in response to these system events:
System events, alarm horns, and indicator lights are described in Chapter 10, Responding
to System Events."
Figure 3-1 shows the path of electrical power through the UPS system when the UPS is
operating in Normal mode.

If the UPS system becomes overloaded, the UPS switches to Bypass mode. The UPS
automatically returns to Normal mode when the error condition is cleared and system
operation is restored within specified limits.
If the UPS suffers an internal failure, it switches automatically to Bypass mode and remains
in that mode until the failure is corrected and the UPS is back in service.

Path of electrical power
You can transfer the UPS from Normal mode to Bypass mode manually. However, the UPS
switches automatically to Bypass mode whenever the inverter can no longer supply the
critical load. If the UPS transfers to Bypass mode from Normal mode due to any reason
other than operator intervention, the UPS automatically attempts to transfer back to
Normal mode (up to three times within a 10-minute period). The fourth transfer will lock
the critical load on the bypass source and requires operator intervention to transfer.
Bypass mode is a normal operating mode, and not an alarm condition. However, if the UPS
is unable to return to Normal mode following an automatic transfer to Bypass mode, an
alarm condition is recorded.

When the discharging battery voltage reaches the lower limit of UPS operation capability,
the critical load transfers to Bypass mode if it is available. If Bypass input is not available, a
Shutdown Imminent" warning occurs. The warning time before critical load loss occurs is
approximately two minutes, depending on load configuration and the battery charge.
If incoming power returns to within specified parameters, the UPS automatically returns to
Normal mode and alarm indications clear. However, the process of returning to Normal
mode is not instantaneous. The rectifier gradually draws increasing power from the
incoming utility until Normal mode is achieved.

Chapter 4 Starting and Stopping the UPS
This chapter describes how to use the Control Panel to start and stop the UPS.
NOTE Before starting the UPS, ensure all installation tasks are complete and a
preliminary startup has been performed by authorized service personnel. The
preliminary startup verifies all electrical interconnections to ensure the installation
was successful and the UPS system operates properly.
CAUTION
Incorrect use of the power controls on the Control Panel can cause a loss of power to the
protected equipment.
EATON Powerware® 9315 UPS (200–300 kVA) Operation Manual S 164201036 Rev G www.powerware.com 4−1
Starting and Stopping the UPS
The following describes the switches on the Control Panel (see Figure 4-1):
A The MODE switch is a two-position rotary switch that controls the manual transfer of the
UPS to and from Bypass mode. The MODE switch is used to:
− Place the critical load in Bypass mode when the UPS is operating in Normal mode and
the bypass source is within acceptable limits. If the transfer does not occur within two
seconds, an alarm sounds.
− Prevent transfer to Normal mode when the UPS is in Bypass mode.
− Shut down the power processing unit (inverter and rectifier) of the UPS.
A The BATTERY switch is a two-position rotary switch that allows you to manually shunt
trip the battery breakers in remote cabinets.
A The circuit breaker (CB1) switch controls the operation of the rectifier and inverter. If
CB1 is on (closed), the rectifier turns on when the START switch is activated and the
proper voltage is at the input terminals.
A The PUSH TO RESET button is described in Resetting the UPS System after Load Off" on
page 11−2.
A The START switch activates the power controls on the Control Panel. The START switch
is center-biased (the key will rest only in the upright position). Its operation is similar to
that of an automobile ignition switch. After setting the operator controls, you turn the
START switch to the right momentarily to activate the controls. When you release it, it
returns to the upright position.
The following sections describe how to operate these controls to start, stop, or change the
operating mode of the UPS.
2. Verify that the Load Off PUSH TO RESET button is pressed in.
The rectifier turns on, then the inverter turns on. The UPS display and alarm alert
you to close the battery breaker.

Starting and Stopping the UPS
When the inverter reaches full voltage, it turns on and supplies power to the
critical load. It takes less than one minute for the UPS to achieve Normal mode.
If a bypass source is available when you turn the START switch on, the critical load
is immediately supplied by the bypass source in Bypass mode until the inverter
turns on and the UPS transfers to Normal mode. The status indicators on the
Monitor Panel indicate when the UPS is in Bypass mode or Normal mode as
appropriate.
The UPS switches to Bypass mode. If the bypass source is not available, the power
processor remains on and an alarm sounds.
2. When the transfer is complete (the LCD screen reads On Bypass"), move the CB1
switch to OFF.
The bypass source supplies the critical load and the power processor de-energizes.
The Bypass mode indicator illuminates on the Monitor Panel.
1. Turn the MODE switch to BYPASS. (The remaining switches can be in any position.)
Power to the critical load is supplied by the bypass source. No backup is available.
4.1.4 To Shut Down Power to the Critical Load While in Bypass Mode
To perform maintenance or service on the critical load, you must shut it down first:
1. Turn off all equipment that is being powered through the UPS.

backup) and is supplying conditioned power to the critical
load.
NO REDUNDANCY
This indicator applies only to parallel systems when one
cabinet is not functioning. This feature is not available on this
system.
ON GENERATOR
This alarm means that the UPS input and bypass are being sup-
plied by the power from the generator, instead of from the utility
power.
ON BYPASS
The bypass source is supplying the critical load. Usually this
means that the UPS is not energized. The load is not protected
in Bypass mode, and a horn sounds after 30 seconds.
UPS ALARM
The UPS system is issuing an alarm. Conditions that affect the
current UPS mode are indicated by the indicators and horn on
the UPS.
ON BATTERY
The UPS battery backup is supplying the critical load. The
utility power is either interrupted or out of specification. The
SYSTEM NORMAL indicator is also lit.
BYPASS UNAVAILABLE
The UPS system is in Normal mode, but a bypass source is not
within specification. A horn sounds after 30 seconds.
SHUTDOWN IMMINENT
The UPS is preparing to shut down because the UPS is in
Battery mode and the DC voltage is approaching its low limit.
This indicator is accompanied by a horn.

Communication
A Modem Card − provides out−of−band" remote notification and monitoring using modem
communication directly to cell phones and pagers.
A Multi−Server Card − has six serial communication ports that can communicate
simultaneously with other computers using LanSafe Power Management Software
(provided on the Powerware Software Suite CD).
A Single−Port Card − connects to the Powerware Expansion Chassis to enable multiple
communication options.
LAN and telephone drops, for use with X−Slot connectivity cards, must be provided by
facility planners or the customer.
For installation and setup of an X−Slot card, please contact Powerware (see page 1−2). Refer
to the manual supplied with the X−Slot card for user instructions.
LanSafe software uses an RS−232 serial link to communicate with the UPS, and it provides
you with up−to−date graphics of UPS power and system data and power flow. It also gives
you a complete record of critical power events, and it notifies you of important UPS or
power information. With custom views for monitoring status and metering information,
various user groups can select the most useful view for their specific needs.
The cables you use for connection depend on the equipment you are connecting to the
UPS. Cables should be no longer than 16m (50 ft). The connectors for Port 1 and Port 2 on
the Communication Panel in the UPS are female, so the cables should be male. Figure 7-3
shows the pin assignments for Port 1, and Table 7-1 describes them. Figure 7-4 shows the
pin assignments for Port 2, and Table 7-2 describes them.

Table 7-3 shows which options are available for each port. The sections that follow
describe the configuration settings you can change.
7.5.1 Mode
The operational mode of the port. Each communication port operates in one of the
following modes:
Port 1 and Port 2 cannot be in the same mode simultaneously; they must always be
operating in different modes. The modes are described later in this chapter.
7.5.2 Rate
The baud rate of the equipment connected to this port. The baud rate determines the
speed of data transferred between the UPS and the connected equipment. For Remote
Monitor mode, the baud rate must be set to 300. All other modes should operate at the
highest baud rate available with the connected equipment. 300 baud is not recommended
for any mode except Remote Monitor.
You can select a baud rate of 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, or 19200.

Communication
7.5.3 Data/Stop
The data size and stop bits of the equipment connected to this port. These settings
determine the number of bits transmitted per ASCII character. The data size and stop bits
you specify depend on the configuration of your equipment.
For Port 1, the data size must be set to 8, with 1 or 2 stop bits. Settings of 7 data
bits/1 stop bit and 7 data bits/2 stop bits are available for Port 2.
7.5.4 Handshaking
This setting controls handshaking. You can select XON/XOFF or Disabled for this setting.
7.5.4.2 XON/XOFF
If handshaking is enabled, the UPS uses special characters (XON and XOFF) to handshake
with the host terminal. The XON character is defined to be ASCII value 11 hex, and the
XOFF character is defined to be ASCII value 13 hex. Upon receiving an XOFF command, the
UPS halts transmission until an XON command is received. In the same way, if the terminal
receives an XOFF command, the UPS expects the terminal to halt transmission until the
UPS sends an XON command.
7.5.5 Save
Set to YES to save any changes to configuration settings upon exit from the Setup screen.
Set to NO if you do not want to save any changes.
Each communication port on the UPS operates in one of five modes, which you select
when configuring the port using the Setup Port screen.

Communication
For connection and setup of a modem or to enable Remote Notify features within the UPS,
please contact Powerware (see page 1−2).
Remote Notification provides the UPS with the capability to use a standard off-the-shelf PC
modem as a telephone interface. The features provided by this option are as follows:
A Automatic answering (user−configurable) for access to the Terminal mode of the UPS.
A Remote and local ability to clear Call Out alarms and events.
Remote Notification provides the user with the option of receiving alarms and notices at a
remote location. Using the Terminal mode, the user calls the UPS to perform basic
monitoring. In the event of a UPS alarm or notice, the user is notified at the remote
location. The UPS calls through the modem to the user’s computer or pager and leaves a
message.
Remote Notification is an extension of the Terminal mode with the additional support
algorithms necessary to control an external modem. Connection to the UPS is made when
a user calls the UPS on the phone. The user has exactly the same capabilities as if using a
terminal connected directly to the UPS RS−232 port.
Remote Notification differs from the basic Terminal mode with the addition the following
functions:
A Call Answer – The Call Answer function allows the user to call into the UPS from a
remote location and enter Terminal mode.
A Call Out – The Call Out function allows the UPS to be configured to call either a remote
computer or numeric paging service over the phone line. Call Out allows the UPS to call
a remote computer and leave a one-line descriptive message of the alarm or notice
condition. Numeric paging support allows the UPS to call a paging service and send
numeric messages.
A Housekeeping – The Housekeeping function maintains the link between the UPS and
modem.

Chapter 8 Maintaining the UPS System
WARNING
Only qualified service personnel (such as a licensed electrician) should perform the battery
installation and maintenance. Risk of electrical shock.
The components inside the UPS cabinet are secured to a sturdy metal frame that is
supported by the UPS magnetics. This design allows authorized service personnel to
remove repairable components with very little disassembly. All repairable parts and
assemblies are located in the front of the UPS, allowing all routine maintenance and
servicing to be performed with front panel access.
You must schedule periodic performance checks of your UPS to keep it running properly.
Regular routine checks of operation and system parameters will enable your UPS system to
function efficiently for many trouble-free years.
WARNING
A Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock or burn from high short−circuit current. The
following precautions should be observed: 1) Remove watches, rings, or other metal
objects; 2) Use tools with insulated handles; 3) Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of
batteries.
A ELECTRIC ENERGY HAZARD. Do not attempt to alter any battery wiring or connectors.
Attempting to alter wiring can cause injury.
