Introduction 2.
Product Overview This ATS product is designed with two independent power inlets to supply power to the load from a primary power source. Should primary power source fail, the secondary will automatically back up the connected equipment without any interruption. The transfer time from one line to another is seamless to the connected equipment. After switching to a secondary power source, the ATS can also switch power back to the primary input when power to the primary input is restored. Package contents: z

Important Safety Warnings Before using the unit, please read all instructions and cautionary markings on the unit, this manual and the batteries. WARNING!! The ATS must be connected to earth when in use. In line with current regulations, only use the cables that have been supplied with the machine. The power supply socket must be easily accessible to the operator. WARNING!! The ATS has been designed exclusively to operate indoors. It is advisable to install it in areas where no inflammable liquids or gases, or other harmful or noxious substances, have been stored. ATTENTION!! A soft damp cloth may be used to clean the outside of the machine (always with the system disconnected from the mains power supply and users). Do not use any type of solvent as this may damage the external finishing of the machine. ATTENTION!! The ATS has been designed exclusively for professional use. NOTE: These instructions may be modified by the wiring regulations in force in the country where the ATS is purchased. 4.

Trouble Shooting Use the table below to solve minor problems. Problem The ATS with the mains voltage present, does GRQ¶W turn on. (The LEDs does not flash and no alarm sounds.) Possible Cause Solution No connection with input plugs Connect the mains to the input plugs as indicated in the installation section. Input switch in ³2))´position 7XUQ WKH LQSXW VZLWFKHV LQ ³21´
position. Check that the mains voltage is present or check if the UPS supplying the ATS is powered on. Reset the protective device. Warning: check that there is no overload or short-­circuit at the output of the UPS. Input power failure Protective device upstream activated No connection with output sockets The load is not powered. The display shows nothing or provides incorrect information. Intervention of 10A thermal protection There is power supply problem in display. Connect the load to the output sockets The thermal protection device will operate in the event of a short circuit or overload on one of the 10A output sockets. The thermal protection can be reset by pushing the button in which will result in the power being reconnected to the load. Therefore prior to attempting a reset of the thermal protection, please check the connected loads rating and/or determine if there are any problems. Then once reset, reconnect each load one at a time to ensure no problems exists. Shut down the ATS completely and wait for a few seconds. Switch the ATS on again, if the problem persists, contact the nearest technical support centre.

Appendix: Input Voltage and Frequency Thresholds FUNCTION Acceptable input voltage range for Source A Return voltage point for Source A Acceptable input voltage range for Source B Return voltage point for Source A Acceptable input frequency for Source A Acceptable input frequency for Source B DESCRIPTION Source A will be power source during this range. When input voltage of source A is beyond this range, ATS will automatically switch to power from Source B. When input voltage of Source A is back to normal, the ATS will switch back to Source A. (Setting Source A as priority power source and Source B is powering) Source B will be power source during this range. When input voltage of source B is beyond this range, ATS will automatically switch to power from Source A. When input voltage of Source B is back to normal, the ATS will switch back to Source B. (Setting Source B as priority power source and Source A is powering) Source A will be power source during this range. When input frequency of source A is beyond this range, ATS will automatically switch to power from Source B. Source B will be power source during this range. When input frequency of source B is beyond this range, ATS will automatically switch to power from Source A. 10 DEFAULT SETTING 180V ± 258V Low point: 190V High point: 248V 180V ± 258V Low point: 190V High point: 248V 45Hz ± 55Hz 45Hz ± 55Hz
