IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This manual contains important instructions for Models EX20Rack / EX30Rack / EXB20/30 that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the UPS batteries. c This equipment can be operated by any individual, with no previous training; c CAUTION: Risk of electric shock, even with unit disconnected from AC power source. Hazardous voltage still may be present through operation from battery.
introduction In critical situations, count on MGE UPS SYSTEMS Pulsar EX20Rack and EX30Rack uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). Their protection keeps your data intact and accessible. Pulsar EX20Rack and EX30Rack UPSs ensure top quality power around the clock, and continue operations during power failures. An intelligent microprocessor detects any operating anomalies of the UPS and triggers an alarm if corrective action is necessary.
options c Bar graph continuously indicates the battery charge level or the critical load power level; c Pulsar EX20Rack and EX30Rack are environment friendly: all components are recyclable and an electronic power-saver device reduces power consumption if the UPS is not active for a period exceeding 5 minutes while on battery back-up; c EX Driver software provides rapid startup of Pulsar EX20Rack and EX30Rack using the EX Tuner configuration module.
software supplied with Pulsar EX20Rack and EX30Rack To meet the different operating environments of your UPS, Pulsar EXRack includes 2 MGE UPS SYSTEMS software programs: c EX-Driver software for Windows c Network based Solution-PacTM power management software EX-Driver for Windows EX Driver for Windows provides communication with the UPS from a simple Windows workstation.
