3.4 Monitoring and Controlling UPS Operation
After you start the UPS, no operator intervention is necessary except for periodic checks of
the UPS status. Manual operation is required only during routine maintenance or service.
Use the Monitor Panel and the Control Panel to monitor and control the UPS. Figure 3-4
shows the location of these two panels on the front of the UPS.

Figure 3-4. Location of the Monitor Panel and the Control Panel
The Monitor Panel on the left front of the UPS continually indicates the present mode of
UPS operation. This panel contains an LCD screen, backlit status indicators, and the LOAD
OFF button. Use the LCD screen on the Monitor Panel to view performance meters or
graphic representations of UPS operation. The Monitor Panel is described in detail in
Chapter 5, Using the Monitor Panel." A quick reference label describing how to use the
Monitor Panel is located inside the UPS above the Control Panel.
Open the right front door of the UPS to view the Control Panel containing various controls
and switches. These control power to and from the UPS, and allow you to change the UPS
mode manually. The Control Panel is discussed in Using the Control Panel" on page 4−1.
