3. Once the inverter LED has been illuminated, turn On the connected loads. 4. Check the status indicators to determine whether the Liebert GXT3 is operating normally. 5. Check the load level indicators to verify that the connected load does not exceed the UPS’ rated capacity.
Disconnecting Input Power from the Liebert GXT3 ® ™ 1. Once the UPS has been shut down as detailed in 4.5 - Shut Down the Liebert GXT3 disconnect the input cable plug. 2. Wait 30 seconds and verify that all indicators have turned Off and the fan has stopped; this indicates that the power-off is complete.
Liebert MultiLink monitors the UPS continuously and can shut down your computer or server in the event of an extended power failure. Liebert MultiLink can also be configured to shut down the UPS. Liebert’s MultiLink can also be configured for use without the USB cable when the Liebert IntelliSlot SNMP Card or Liebert IntelliSlot Web Card is installed in the UPS.
5.2.1 Configuration Program ™ Accessing the Configuration Program via USB is a new feature of the Liebert GXT3 . For most users, the factory default settings will be adequate. This section illustrates the features available for modification, as well as the factory default setting.
When the Auto-Enable output option is selected and the UPS output is disabled using Pin 1 ® ™ and Pin 2, the Liebert GXT3 ’s output can turn On automatically and without warning if the Pin 1 and Pin 2 connection is changed.
This timer cannot be stopped once triggered. If utility power returns during this countdown, the Liebert GXT3 will still shut down and must remain shut down for 10 seconds. Whether the UPS turns back On when the power is restored depends on the auto-restart setting.
