This document provides essential instructions for the Schneider Electric Easy UPS SRVS Series (1000VA, 2000VA, 3000VA). Before installation, ensure the package is undamaged and the environment is suitable for indoor use with adequate ventilation (20 cm clearance on all sides). The UPS is shipped with the internal battery disconnected; you must connect the battery connectors before initial startup.
Installation
The UPS is designed for rack-mount installation. Use the provided rack-mount brackets and screws to secure the unit into a 19-inch rack enclosure. It is recommended to install the battery pack at the bottom of the rack and the UPS above it due to the weight. Ensure all electrical work is performed by a qualified electrician.
Start Up
To start the UPS:
- Connect the internal battery connectors.
- Reinstall the front bezel.
- Connect equipment to the UPS (avoid extension cords).
- Connect the UPS to the utility power outlet.
- Press the Power On/Off button on the front panel.
The battery will charge to 90% capacity during the first five hours of normal operation.
Operation and Display
The front panel features an LCD display and control buttons:
- Power On/Off: Turns the UPS on/off and resets alarms.
- Mute/Esc: Acknowledges audible alarms and exits sub-menus.
- Enter: Selects menu items.
- Up/Down: Navigates through menus and display screens.
The LCD displays status icons such as On Line, On Battery, Replace Battery, Bypass, Overload, and Battery Charge level.
Configuration
You can configure UPS parameters via the display interface. Navigate to the 'Set' menu using the Enter button, then use the Up/Down buttons to adjust settings such as Output Voltage, Audible Alarm, Green Mode, Minimum battery capacity to restart, and Low battery state indication.
Troubleshooting and Alarms
The UPS indicates errors via audible beeps and display codes:
- SC: Short circuit at output.
- OL: Overload condition.
- dCH: DC voltage error.
- Hot: Temperature rising above limits.

If the UPS does not turn on, check the power connection and the input thermal circuit breaker on the rear panel. For complex issues, contact Schneider Electric customer support.
