Start-up and switch-off behavior
Start-up behavior
The system start of the capacitive CU8110-0060 UPS takes place as soon as the input voltage (Uin) is applied and the internal energy storage is fully charged. The system start can be delayed by several seconds to minutes, depending on the current charge state of the UPS.
Switch-off behavior
The switch-off behavior of the UPS can be divided into three scenarios and depends on the selected operation mode and the wiring of the UPS:
- Direct supply via outputs (U1out and U2out) without communication interfaces
The loads are only connected to the U1out and U2out outputs, without USB or UPS-OCT communication. As soon as the external 24 V DC input voltage (Uin) is removed, the UPS switches off its U1out and U2out outputs after a holding time of 4 minutes. - Operation mode with digital I/O connection to the industrial PC
The UPS is connected to the industrial PC via digital inputs and outputs. - The P-FAIL output of the UPS is connected to the PC_ON input of the industrial PC.
- In the event of a power failure, the P-FAIL output is set to 24 V, which applies 24 V to the PC_ON input and initiates a proper shutdown of the industrial PC.
- After the industrial PC has been successfully shut down, the power status output on the industrial PC is switched from 24 V to 0 V, which also results in 0 V at the UPS-EN input of the UPS.
- The falling edge from 24 V to 0 V at the UPS EN input signals the UPS to immediately switch off the U1out and U2out outputs.
- Operation mode with USB or UPS-OCT communication
The industrial PC is connected to the UPS via the USB or UPS-OCT interface. Control is via the UPS configuration software. - UPS-OCT: The UPS switches off automatically as soon as the industrial PC is shut down.
- USB: A shutdown timer can be configured in the UPS configuration software. The UPS switches off as soon as the timer expires.
A complete discharge of the energy storage system can lead to a longer restart time.
