3.5 UPS Initial Startup
To start up the UPS:
Verify that the total equipment ratings do not exceed the UPS capacity to prevent an overload
alarm.
1. Verify that the internal batteries are connected.
See "Connecting the internal battery" on page 7.
2. If optional EBMs are installed, verify that the EBMs are connected to the UPS.
See "Connecting the EBM(s)" on page 8.
3. Set the upstream circuit breaker (not included) to the "I" position (ON).
The UPS front panel display illuminates and shows a status of "UPS initializing..."
4. Verify that the UPS transfers to Standby mode ("UPS on standby").
5. Press the button on the UPS front panel for at least one second.
The UPS front panel display changes status to "UPS starting..."
6. Check the UPS front panel display for active alarms or notices. Resolve any active alarms before
continuing. See "Troubleshooting" on page 34.
If the indicator is on, do not proceed until all alarms are clear. Check the UPS status from the
front panel to view the active alarms. Correct the alarms and restart if necessary.
7. Verify that the indicator illuminates solid, indicating that the UPS is operating normally and any
loads are powered.
The UPS should be in Normal mode.
8. Press the
ESC
button until the start screen appears.
9. If optional EBMs are installed, see "Configuring the UPS for EBMs" on page 20 to set the number of
installed EBMs.
10. To change any other factory-set defaults, see "Operation" on page 14.
If you are powering RCD type loads, with high inrush current, it is possible to first start on
bypass:
1. In standby mode, enable the user setting “Start on Bypass” (disabled by default).
2. Press the on button to start the UPS. The UPS will start on Bypass for 5~15 seconds, and then
transfer automatically to Normal mode.
Eaton recommends setting the date and time.
At initial startup, the UPS sets system frequency according to input line frequency (input
frequency auto-sensing is enabled by default). After initial startup, auto-sensing is disabled
until manually re-enabled by output frequency setting.
At initial startup, input voltage auto-sensing is disabled by default. When manually enabled
by output voltage setting, at the next AC startup the UPS sets output voltage according to
input line voltage. After the subsequent startup, auto-sensing is disabled until manually
re-enabled by output voltage setting.
11. If you installed an optional RPO, test the RPO function:
Activate the external RPO switch. Verify the status change on the UPS display.
Deactivate the external RPO switch and restart the UPS.
The internal batteries charge to 90 % capacity in less than 3 hours. However, Eaton
recommends that the batteries charge for 48 hours after installation or long-term storage. If
optional EBMs are installed, see the recharge times listed in table 24 on page 33.

4. Operation
4.2 Operating Modes
The Eaton 9130 front panel indicates the UPS status through the UPS indicators (see figure 20 on page
14).
Normal Mode
During Normal mode, the
indicator illuminates solid and the UPS is powered from the utility.
The UPS monitors and charges the batteries as needed and provides filtered power protection to your
equipment.
The UPS may at times silently implement a High Alert mode, usually when incoming utility conditions
are unfavorable. In High Alert mode, the UPS disables the battery support test to ensure maximum
capacity from the batteries if needed. The UPS will remain in High Alert for 24 hours or until changed
by a Power Strategy command before returning to its previous mode.
Optional High Efficiency and Energy Saving settings minimize heat contribution to the rack
environment. See "User Settings" on page 15.
Battery Mode
When the UPS is operating during a power outage, the alarm beeps once every five seconds and the
indicator illuminates solid.
When the utility power returns, the UPS transfers to Normal mode operation while the battery
recharges.
If battery capacity becomes low while in Battery mode, the indicator flashes slowly and the audible
alarm beeps once every second. If the "Battery Low" alarm is set, the indicator also illuminates
solid. This warning is approximate, and the actual time to shutdown may vary significantly.
Depending on the UPS load and the number of Extended Battery Modules (EBMs) connected,
the "Battery Low" warning may occur before the batteries reach 25 % capacity. See table 23 on
page 33 for estimated runtimes.
When utility power is restored after the UPS shuts down, the UPS automatically restarts.
Bypass Mode
In the event of a UPS overload or internal failure, the UPS transfers your equipment to utility power.
Battery mode is not available and your equipment is not protected; however, the utility power
continues to be passively filtered by the UPS. The indicator illuminates.
The UPS remains in Bypass mode for at least 5 seconds (if the bypass source remains acceptable). If
three transfers to Bypass occur within 10 minutes for any reason other than user command, the UPS
locks in Bypass for 1 hour or until any control button is pressed.
The UPS transfers to Bypass mode when:
the user activates Bypass mode through the front panel.l
the UPS detects an internal failure.l
the UPS has an overtemperature condition.l
the UPS has an overload condition listed in table 20 on page 32.l
The UPS shuts down after a specified delay for overload conditions listed in table 20 on page 32.
The UPS remains on to alarm the fault
Standby Mode
When the UPS is turned off and remains plugged into a power outlet, the UPS is in Standby mode.
The indicator is off, indicating that power is not available to your equipment. The battery recharges
when necessary, and the communication bay is powered.
If utility fails and output turns off due to drained batteries or UPS internal failure, the UPS alarms in
Standby mode and powers the communication bay for 1 hour 30 minutes or until battery voltage drops
below 1.75 volts per cell (whichever occurs first).
If utility fails while the UPS is in Standby mode, the logic power supply turns off in approximately
10 seconds.
If the UPS is waiting on commands and utility fails, unit and logic power turn off in approximately
30 seconds.

The UPS returns a header containing the UPS identification (UPS type, part number, and serial
number), firmware version, and the current date and time, followed by the event history.
2. Use the connected communication device to view or print the information. The report is delivered in
ASCII format.
4.6 Setting Power Strategy
On the High Efficiency setting, the UPS operates normally on Bypass, transfers to inverter in less than
10 ms when utility fails, and transfers back to Bypass in 1 minute after utility returns.
High Efficiency operation is available after one minute of stable power.
To set the power strategy:
1. Press any button to activate the menu options, then select SETTINGS, USER SETTINGS, and POWER
STRATEGY.
2. Select HIGH EFFICIENCY or NORMAL, and ENTER to confirm.
4.7 Configuring Bypass Settings
The following settings are available for configuring Bypass operation.
Transfer to Bypass When Overload. The default forces a transfer to Bypass when any overload
condition occurs. You can configure the setting for a delayed transfer, with the amount of delay
determined by the amount of overload, as shown in table 20 on page 32.
Bypass Voltage Low Limit. The default disables a transfer to Bypass if the measured bypass voltage
level is below the nominal output voltage minus 15 %. You can configure the setting for another
percentage of nominal. This setting can be overruled by the "Qualify Bypass" setting.
Bypass Voltage High Limit. The default disables a transfer to Bypass if the measured bypass voltage
level is above the nominal output voltage plus 10 %. You can configure the setting for another
percentage of nominal. This setting can be overruled by the "Qualify Bypass" setting.
Qualify Bypass. The default allows a transfer to Bypass only when Bypass is within the following
specifications:
Bypass voltage is between the "Bypass Voltage Low Limit" and "Bypass Voltage High Limit"l
settings.
Bypass frequency is within nominal frequency ±3 Hz.l
the inverter is synchronized with Bypass when the "Unsynchronized Transfers" setting isl
disabled.
You can prohibit Bypass ("Never") or always allow Bypass with no specification checking ("Always").
For "Always on UPS Fault", transfer to Bypass is always made on UPS fault; otherwise, operation
proceeds as with the default setting.
Synchronization Window. The UPS tries to synchronize with Bypass when the Bypass frequency is less
than the value set for the "Synchronization Window" setting. When the Bypass frequency is more than
the set value, the UPS goes to nominal frequency. On Bypass the synchronization window is ±3 Hz. If
synchronization is disabled ("Sync Disabled"), the UPS will synchronize only when operating on Bypass.
Unsynchronized Transfers. The default allows an unsynchronized transfer to Bypass. You can configure
the setting to not allow such transfers. This setting can be overruled by the "Qualify Bypass" setting.

UPS + 2 EBMs 5
UPS + 3 EBMs 7
UPS + 4 EBMs 9
NOTE: if 0 is selected, no batteries are connected and all battery-related alarms are disabled.
NOTE: the UPS contains one battery string; each EBM contains two battery strings.
3. Press the button to save the setting.
4. Press the
ESC
button until the start screen appears.
Running Automatic Battery Tests
Automatic battery tests run approximately every 30 days, unless disabled. During the test, the UPS
transfers to Battery mode and discharges the batteries for 25 seconds under the existing load.
The "UPS on Battery" notice and the "Battery Low" alarm do not activate during a battery test.
For automatic battery tests to run:
the "Automatic Battery Support Tests" setting must be enabled.l
the UPS must be in Normal mode, with no active alarms.l
the batteries must be fully charged.l
the bypass voltage must be acceptable.l
no manual battery test was initiated previously in the same charging cycle.l
To pass the battery test, the battery voltage must remain above the threshold value during discharge.
Configuring Automatic Restart
The UPS automatically restarts if utility returns after the output was shut off due to exhausted batteries,
a shutdown input signal, or automatic shutdown command.
You can set the load segment for the amount of time to delay the restart once utility returns, using the
"Automatic Start Delay" setting. You can also configure UPS restart to depend on the battery charge
level, using the "Battery Charge % to Restart" setting.
