Risk of load drop
The load is not supported by the UPS during a Battery SPoT mode test. Shut down any connected load
or ensure alternative supply for the load before starting a Battery SPoT mode test.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

General prerequisites for single UPS system (always refer to the prerequisites listed on your UPS as they are specific to your system):
-
UOB must be open.
-
The UPS operation mode must be Requested static bypass.
-
The battery disconnect device(s) BB must be closed.
-
There must be no detected surveillance faults.
-
SSIB must be closed.
-
UIB must be closed (if present).
-
BF2 must be closed (if present).
-
The output voltage and frequency must be within predefined limits.
This feature performs a battery discharge test without the need for a load bank. During the battery SPoT mode test, the inverter is turned ON while the UPS is in requested static bypass. During the test, the UPS performs a battery runtime calibration test (if the battery runtime test prerequisites are met, see Start a Runtime Calibration Test) and adjusts the estimated runtime accordingly.
The output power can be manually adjusted from 0 to 100% load to be as close as possible to the operating conditions.
The test stops when the battery voltage has reached its shutdown level, or when the predefined discharge level has been reached.
- From the home screen on the display, select .
- On page 1 of the menu for Battery SPoT mode, verify that the prerequisites for performing a test is met and confirm that the load is powered if UOB is open during this procedure. Tap the arrow symbol to go to the next page.
- On page 2, follow the listed checklist. Tap the arrow symbol to go to the next page.
- On page 3, set the battery discharge level and the output power level. Tap the arrow symbol to go to the next page.
- On page 4, tap Start battery SPoT mode to start the test.
