1.0 Introduction 1.1 Overview This equipment is a high-performance, line-interactive, uninterruptible power source (UPS) designed to provide clean, reliable, AC power to computer loads. The UPS’s line-interactive circuit topology (see figure below) offers excellent efficiency, on-line voltage regulation, and fast utility fault response. The UPS’s DC-to-AC inverter is always connected to the output and when operating on-line, part of the inverter circuitry is used “in reverse” to continuously mai

1.0 Introduction 1.2 SmartBoost SmartBoost allows continuous, on-line operation during extended brown- outs or low line voltage conditions. The UPS compensates for reduced line voltage by boosting the load voltage to 12% above the input. This enhances UPS reliability because the battery is saved for complete utility failure. 1.3 Battery replacement indicators and test The UPS provides visual and audible Replace Battery indications, based on a load test of the battery. The UPS exercises its batte
