Apc ups ls 700 manual

Test the system with all loads operating to make sure that the unit is not overloaded. After plugging in the loads and the unit, check the site wiring fault indicator on the rear panel. See section 3. It lights if the unit is plugged into an improperly wired AC power outlet. Wiring faults detected include missing ground, hot-neutral polarity reversal, and overloaded neutral circuit.

Caution: If the unit indicates a site wiring fault, get a qualified electrician to correct the building wiring. The unit features a TVSS connector for connecting the ground lead on transient voltage surge-sup- pression TVSS devices such as telephone and network line protectors. Tighten the screw to secure the lead. The loads are immediately powered while the unit beeps and performs a self-test. Note: The unit is on the internal processor is operating whenever it is plugged in and utility voltage is present.

Even when switched off the unit maintains the battery charge and will respond to commands received through the computer interface port and the accessory slot.

Use the self-test to verify both the operation of the unit and the condition of the battery. Note: By default the unit performs a self-test at power up and once every two weeks. During the self-test, the unit briefly operates the loads on-battery the on-battery LED comes on.

If the unit passes the self-test, it returns to on-line operation. If the unit fails the self-test it immediately returns to on-line operation and lights the replace battery LED. The loads are not affected. Recharge the battery overnight and perform the self-test again. If the replace battery LED is still on, see section 10 for information on replacing the battery. The 5-LED display on the left of the front panel shows the power drawn from the unit by the load.

If all five LEDs light, thoroughly test your complete system to make sure that the unit will not become overloaded. If the unit is overloaded, the overload LED lights and an alarm sounds. When all five LEDs light, the battery is fully charged. When the lowest LED is flashing, the battery can supply less than two minutes of run time for the load. This unit has a diagnostic feature that displays the utility voltage.

After four seconds the 5-LED display on the right of the front panel shows the utility input voltage. Refer to the list for the voltage reading. The display indicates that the voltage is between the displayed value from the list and the next higher value. If no LEDs come on and the unit is plugged into a working AC power outlet, the line voltage is extremely low.

If all five LEDs come on, the line voltage is extremely high and should be checked by an electrician. Note: The unit will start a self-test as part of this procedure. The self-test does not affect the voltage display. The unit automatically corrects high and low utility voltages so that the loads receive voltage within the normal range.

SmartTrim and SmartBoost indications are advisory. No user action is required. To check the utility voltage use the utility voltage display. Release the button during the beep and the loads are powered within 4 seconds. Cold start is not a normal operating condition. The unit detects line voltage distortions such as spikes, notches, dips, and swells, as well as distortions caused by operation with inexpensive fuel powered generators. By default, the unit reacts to distortions by transferring to on-battery operation to protect the loads.

Where power quality is poor, the unit may frequently transfer to on-battery operation. If the loads can operate normally under such conditions, battery capacity and service life may be conserved by reducing the sensitivity of the unit. Use a pointed object such as a pen to press the button. Press it again to set the sensitivity to low.

Press the button again to reset normal sensitivity. When the unit is set to normal sensitivity, the configuration LED is brightly lit. When it is set to reduced sensitivity, the LED is dimly lit. When it is set to low sensitivity, the LED is off. By default, the low battery warning occurs when there are approximately two minutes of on-bat- tery run time remaining. This may not be enough time to gracefully shut down some protected computer systems.

Use a pointed object such as a pen to press the configuration button. Press the configuration button once to set the low battery warning interval to approximately five minutes.

Press it again to set the interval to approximately seven minutes. Press the button again to reset the interval to two minutes. Welcome to ManualMachine. We have sent a verification link to to complete your registration. Log In Sign Up. Forgot password?

Check Building. If the Building Wiring Fault indicator on the power plug stays lit, one of the following conditions exist:. A lit indicator means that a possible shock hazard exists. Improper building wiring should be corrected by a qualified electrician. Note: Improper building wiring will not prevent the UPS from operating but will limit its protection capability.

Improper building wiring could result in equipment damage that is not covered by APC. Connect Equipment to UPS. The four battery backup plus surge protection outlets along the left in the graphic should be used for sensitive equipment such as computers, monitors, and external drives. Battery power is automatically provided in case of power outage. When the UPS is switched Off, neither utility nor battery power is supplied to these outlets. The three surge protection outlets along the right in the graphic should be used for all other peripherals such as a printer, scanner, fax machine or even an office lamp.

These outlets do not provide power during a power outage. These outlets are always on when utility power is available and are not controlled by the front panel switches. One battery backup plus surge protection and one surge protection outlet accept transformer blocks bottom outlet on left and right. Power the UPS. Connect Phone. The telephone surge protection protects up to two analog not digital phone lines that are serviced by one phone cable.

If you need to connect two pieces of equipment, you will need to use a line splitter. When plugging the phone lines into the back of the UPS, the release tab you depress to unplug the phone line should be facing up. Switch On and. Following the test, if a red indicator is displaying, consult the Troubleshooting section overleaf. When the green On Line and red Overload indicators are flashing alternately, it means that the UPS has entered sleep mode and the battery power is switched off.

This flashing lasts for 16 seconds after the UPS has been shut down by the software and is an expected occurrence.
