7. The UPStealth determines whether a power failure has happened by two methods the true RMS value of the AC Line voltage and or the occurrence of a transient large enough to cause power disruptions The trip points for the lower and upper voltage thresholds are set by the user The user can also select transient sensitivity levels that determine if the UPStealth will respond to a power line anomaly The UPStealth determines that a power event has occurred by comparing the incoming power line waveform to a saved template This template is created by monitoring the local power line and building a waveform based on the actual local AC power The template is continuously updated since the wave shape can change based on the power line loading in the area The UPStealth looks for a voltage change for a defined amount of time before it decides a power failure has occurred The waveform that tripped the UPStealth is saved in the Event Log along with the template waveform so power problems can be analyzed The BYPASS rocker switch on the front panel allows the user to bypass all of the electronics in the Inverter Controller The switch directly connects the AC INPUT terminal block with the AC OUTPUT terminal block when in the Bypass mode The UPStealth will still be operating and it can still monitor the cabinet load current and power The Inverter Controller will still control the Battery Panels and make sure that they are maintained pro

34. th Battery Panel 500W The Living Hinge Battery Panels are installed by first putting the included plastic block in the bottom of the area between the rack and outside shell Slipping the Speedy Sleeve in the space next to the rack will allow easier installing for the Battery Panel by covering protruding screws The Battery Panel can be installed from the front or the back of the cabinet The Metal cover side should face the rack In larger cabinets one panel can sit on top of another The Living Hinge Battery panels can be used in any orientation The NEMA style batteries are in aluminum cases and are made to sit on or underneath a shelf They can also be rack mounted with the supplied mounting ears Allofthe Battery Panels are electrically identical STEALTH NEMA UPStealth Battery Panel 500W The Battery Panels can contain any number of battery strings but typically have four or six battery strings Each Battery Panel has an intelligent controller that gathers data from each battery string which is relayed back to the Inverter Controller Entering into power fail mode is independent of the panel controller so the battery strings can respond very quickly to a power failure This system configuration allows the individual battery strings to supply power to the Inverter Controller even if communication is lost between the Battery Panel the Controller each Charger and or the Inverter Controller Each battery string has its own Control
