1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Touchscreen Control Panel’s integrated interface simplifies monitoring and managing single or multiple
Liebert UPS modules. The control collects a profusion of information about the health of the modules and
presents it in a standardized format. This simple, dynamic display speeds operator response to changing power
input and demand.
Many of the settings will depend on the UPS type and features. Many settings will be made by Vertiv personnel
when setting up the UPS.
The Touchscreen Control Panel’s interface will display data either graphically or in text. The Status Scroll Bar at
the top of the touchscreen display summarizes system conditions. The bar changes color to indicate status and
includes an icon matched to the status. The Status Gauge displays such details as power demand from the
connected load, input power quality, output and bypass on each phase and battery capacity.
The Touchscreen Control Panel’s mimic display shows the comprehensive system information that the operator
needs:
• Is input power connected?
• Are there any alarms?
• Which breakers are open and which are closed?
• Is the UPS on battery?
• How much battery run time is available?
Checking a particular component is as simple as touching it on the mimic display—Detailed data appears,
allowing the operator to respond.
Visual and audible alarms alert personnel to faults and alarms requiring immediate attention.
Passcodes for each level of access—Operator, Administrator and Service—secure the UPS against unauthorized
changes. Personnel without a passcode can view UPS status, but cannot change any functions or the
appearance of the interface.

2.0 NAVIGATING THROUGH THE TOUCHSCREEN
CONTROL PANEL
The Touchscreen Control Panel is active whenever the UPS has input power. The touchscreen LCD on the front
of the UPS permits:
• Logging in to the system—3.1 - Log In to the Touchscreen Control Panel
• Customizing the user interface—2.4 - Customizing the Display
• Checking the status of the UPS and its external batteries, including all measured parameters, events and alarms—4.0 -
VIEWING UPS STATUS and 5.0 - VIEWING UPS COMPONENT STATUS
• Determining when users logged in and out—4.3 - Logs—Events and Log-In Times
• Silencing alarms—3.3.1 - OPERATE Menu—Silence an Alarm
•TurningtheUPSOn—3.3.2 - OPERATE Menu—Inverter On
• Turning the UPS Off—3.3.3 - OPERATE Menu—Inverter Off
• Resetting faults—3.3.4 - OPERATE Menu—Reset Fault
• Enabling Energy Saving Mode—3.3.6 - OPERATE Menu—Energy Saving Mode Activation
The Touchscreen Control Panel’s display default view is two panes: One-line animated mimic and UNIT STATUS.
The appearance can be changed to multiple panes that show other data. Customizing the appearance is detailed
in 2.4 - Customizing the Display.
2.1 Restrict Physical Access with Barriers or Set Log-In Codes
NOTICE
Risk of unauthorized changes to UPS operational settings. Can cause equipment damage.
Because a UPS such as the Liebert EXL S1 is usually installed in areas that restrict physical access, the Touchscreen
Control Panel does not, by default, require a PIN to change UPS settings and operations.
If physical access cannot be restricted with barriers and identity cards, PIN codes may be set in the Touchscreen Control
Panel to prevent unwanted changes to the Liebert EXL S1.
The Touchscreen Control Panel has four possible access levels—Observer, Operator, Administrator and
Service—each with different levels of authority. The Service level, which permits configuration changes, is the
only level that, by default, requires a PIN.
The default access level for the Touchscreen Control Panel is Administrator. When a PIN is set for the
Administrator, the control panel opens at the Operator level.
To set or change a PIN, refer to 3.1 - Log In to the Touchscreen Control Panel.

2.2 Touchscreen Control Panel Components
The main areas of the Touchscreen Control Panel are shown in Figure 3. The display arrangement and the
information displayed can be changed.
At log-in for all access levels, the Touchscreen Control Panel opens to the STATUS screen in graphic display. The
status of Unit 0 will be shown if the system is a single-unit configuration. In a parallel setup, the STATUS screen shows
the unit where the HMI is installed or the system view. The STATUS screen will show the animated mimic and system
status readings at each log-in level. The appearance will differ only in the function menus displayed (see Figure 4).

Each Function Menu offers different information and control choices.
If PIN’s are not required, the user will see the STATUS, OPERATE, SETUP and LIFE Services Function Menus.
If PIN’s are required, the user’s access level determines which Function Menu icons are displayed. For example,
logging in as Operator will show the STATUS, OPERATE and LIFE Services Function Menus; logging in as
Administrator will show those menus as well as the SETUP Function Menu (see Figure 4).
• STATUS: Condition of the UPS modules and components and data affecting operation and performance; visible at all access
levels.
• OPERATE: UPS operation controls, such as Inverter On, Inverter Off and Energy Saving Status; visible to Operator,
Administrator and Service
• SETUP: Manage permissions through PIN’s; visible to Administrator and Service
• SERVICE: Input wiring and breaker configuration, parallel status, protocol used and battery charging method; visible only to
Service
• LIFE Services: Information for assistance to enable LIFE customer care. LIFE Services requires a maintenance contract. The
service must be activated with assistance by calling the listed telephone number; visible to all, including Observers.

2.2.1 Context Menus
The Context Menus, available by touching the Menu icon at the top left corner of the interface,
display information about the UPS and permit changing various settings. The functions possible
through the Context Menus are determined by the user’s access level and on the Function Menu
that is active (see Figure 5).
The items under Display Options on the STATUS Context Menu, for example, differ for each access
level.
Some information available through the Context Menu, such as alarms and run hours, are available through other
areas of the Touchscreen Control Panel.

Context Menu—STATUS
Selecting the STATUS icon and touching the Menu icon reveals a Context Menu that permits performing several
actions or accessing additional information (see Figure 5). Touching a Context Menu item will reveal data or
expand the menu to show additional options.

2.3 SYSTEM PANE—Mimic Display Components
The animated mimic display, the default view for the control, shows each configured major component of the
UPS system, for both single-module and multi-module systems. The mimic display is the same for all access
levels. The power path is shown by animated lines; moving dashes show the active power path. Touching a
component (except a breaker) brings up details about the component’s status. Breakers are shown as open or
closed (see Figure 6), but they are not interactive.
Components in the mimic display signify their operational status by their color, green, amber or red. Tables 9
through 11 describe the various states of the indicators.
The animated mimic display can be changed to any of five other views: Status, Alarms, Run Hours, Event Log and
Battery Cycle Monitor Summary (see 2.4 - Customizing the Display).
