Mode indicator

The mode indicator provides status information on the 2145 UPS and is located on the front panel.

When the mode indicator is a steady green, the 2145 UPS is in normal mode. The 2145 UPS checks and charges its battery as necessary.

When the mode indicator is flashing green, the 2145 UPS is in standby mode. Standby mode means that the 2145 UPS is turned off but is still connected to the main power source. No power is available from the 2145 UPS output sockets but the 2145 UPS monitors and charges its battery as necessary.

When the mode indicator is steady red, the 2145 UPS is in bypass mode because of one of the following conditions:
  • The 2145 UPS has overheated
  • The 2145 UPS has an overload condition of 103% through 110% for 30 seconds
  • The 2145 UPS detects a fault in the battery or in the 2145 UPS electronics assembly

When the mode indicator is flashing red and the alarm is sounding, the voltage range setting might not be correct. When a SAN Volume Controller 2145-4F2 is connected to the 2145 UPS, the SAN Volume Controller 2145-4F2 automatically adjusts the voltage range setting. Take no action for this alarm condition unless it persists for more than five minutes after a SAN Volume Controller 2145-4F2 has been connected to a 2145 UPS and turned on.
