Sensitivity adjustment settings

The UPS detects and reacts to line voltage distortions by transferring to battery backup power to protect connected

equipment. In situations where either the UPS or the connected equipment is too sensitive for the input voltage

level it is necessary to adjust the transfer voltage.

1. Connect the UPS to a utility power source. Be sure the UPS is turned off.

2. Press and hold the

POWER button for six seconds. The load capacity bar will flash on and off, to indicate

the UPS is in Program mode.

3. Press

the POWER button again to scroll through the menu options. The UPS will beep to confirm the

selection.

When the UPS is in Sensitivity Configuration mode, the Sensitivity bar graph icons display the sensitivity level

setting. Refer to the examples here as a reference.
