2. Introduction
This ATS product is designed with two independent power inlets to supply power to the load from
a primary power source. Should primarily 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 .

4. 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.

6. Installation
NOTE: Before installation, please inspect the unit. Be sure that
nothing inside the package is damaged.
Mounting the Unit
The unit can be mounted in a standard 19" rack. Fasten the mounting brackets to the unit using
the screws provided. With brackets attached securely, users can mount the unit in a standard 19"
rack as shown below.
NOTE: If the temperature around the unit will rise above 40 °C, ventilation is required
Connecting the Unit
For connecting the ATS, plug “input source A connector” and “input source B connector” to the
two independent power sources or UPSs depending using the SCHUCKO-IEC or IEC-IEC 16A cables
supplied.
Plug the user load to the output 10A (“Output 1 and 2”) or 16A (“Output 3”) sockets depending on
user’s requirements.

7. Operation
Power On/Off
Put the input power switch in “ON” position. The output will then be supplied by the source set as
selected.
Setting priority of power source
It is possible to set the power source preference to supply the output by pushing the button of
“source preference selector”. The default power source is “Source A”.

Contact Ports
The contacts port is formed using six (6) pins numbered from left to right (see fig. 1), which can
be connected to an external monitoring system (such as a BMS) in order to monitor the operational
status of the ATS.
The external equipment must respect the voltage and current characteristics of contacts port.
Fig. 1: Focus on contacts port.
The contacts port provides the following pins:
• Pin 1: common contact.
• Pin 2: “Source B” active contact (if the contact between “pin 1” and “pin 2” is closed, output
is supplied by “Source B”).
• Pin 3: “Source A” active contact (if the contact between “pin 3” and “pin 1” is closed, output
is supplied by “Source A”).
• Pin 4: “Source A” status OK contact (if the contact between “pin 4” and “pin 1” is closed,
“Source A” is present and regular).
• Pin 5: “Source B” status OK contact (if the contact between “pin 5” and “pin 1” is closed,
“Source B” is present and regular).
• Pin 6: Status OK contact (if the contact between “pin 6” and “pin 1” is closed, ATS functioning
status is regular).
The following diagram shows the functioning of the contacts port.
Fig. 2: Contacts port basic diagram.
ATTENTION: The pins of the contact port are able to carry maximum current of 8A and maximum
voltage of 250Vac.
