More Flexibility with Compaq UPS Option Cards and Additional Load Segments
There are several options in configuring the Compaq option cards with the Compaq R6000.These are as follows: One Compaq Multi-Server Card supports up to three servers. Two Compaq Multi-Server Cards support up to five servers. One Compaq Scalable Card can scale two Compaq R6000 UPSs with up to nine load segments. The R6000 configuration utility is provided to setup the option cards and to map the load segments. Compaq UPS Option Cards are used in conjunction with Compaq Power Management Software, LanSafe III, and FailSafe III.
Increases System Uptime with Extended Runtime Modules and Hot Swappable Batteries
The Compaq R6000 UPS is equipped with hot swappable batteries, so you can replace batteries without powering down the connected equipment. In addition, the rack-mounted Extended Runtime Modules occupy 3U (5.25 inches) of rack space.The Compaq R6000 UPS supports up to two Extended Runtime Modules.
Rated at 6000VA/6000W the Compaq R6000 can protect up to twice the number of servers , with Power Factor Corrected power supplies in a typical configuration when compared to competitive UPSs. Power Factor Corrected power supplies have a power factor close to unity typically greater than .95 Power Factor. Switch mode power supplies that are not Power Factor Corrected have a power factor typically between .6 PF and .8 PF.
Power Supply VA Rating

VA Versus Watt Ratings for PFC and Non-PFC Rated Power Supplies Where: P.S. = Power Supply, VA = Volt Amps, PFC = Power Factor Corrected, W = watts
A UPS rated at 1000 VA/1000 W supports a 1000 VA Power Factor Corrected power supply. A UPS rated at 1000 VA/750 W will not support a 1000 VA Power Factor Corrected power supply. One of the key advantages of the Compaq R6000 is the unity rated power processing stage, which means the UPS can support a greater number of Power Factor Corrected loads. The following example shows the Compaq R6000 UPS protection advantage for an Enterprise server configuration with PFC power supplies. Enterprise load requirement: Enterprise servers with PFC power supplies rated at 1122VA/1100 W each 540W peripheral equipment (such as workstations, monitors and storage)
Compaq R6000 UPS 6000 VA/6000 W Power available at 80% loaded = 4800 W
APC SmartUPS Rackmount 5000 VA/3750 W Power available at 80% loaded = 3000 W
The primary technical difference between a Compaq R6000 UPS and a non-unity rated UPS is the ability of the Compaq R6000 UPS to deliver more true power (energy).True power is measured in watts. In order to understand the true power requirement of a load three elements need to be defined; voltage required = V (volts), current required = A (amps), and the Power Factor = PF.Watts = VA x PF.The primary difference between a Power Factor Corrected (PFC) power supply and non-Power Factor Corrected power supply is how it draws current from its power (energy) source. A PFC power supply with a near unity power factor will draw current in a linear fashion throughout the entire voltage waveform. A nonPFC power supply with a .6 to .8 power factor will draw current for a short duration of the voltage waveform normally during the peak of the voltage waveform causing distortion which is a form of nonwork-producing energy.

A PFC supply requires a power (energy) source that can produce more true power. During a utility failure or a very low voltage condition (voltage sag) the UPS becomes the true power (energy) source for the equipment it is protecting. UPSs rated at unity, such as the Compaq R6000, have several distinct competitive design differences over non-unity rated UPSs. Some of the competitive design differences for the Compaq R6000 are: A greater source of energy to supply more true power which means it has more battery capacity (energy source). A more robust DC to AC inverter power stage in order to produce more true power. Greater cooling capacity to handle the additional heat created by converting more true power.

UPS Groups
When a single UPS supports more than one server or workstation, the resultant system is called a UPS group. Compaq Power Management Software and LanSafe III support up to 64 network devices in a single UPS group, and provides unattended, sequential shutdown of every device in that group, regardless of operating system. Of the servers or workstations in a UPS group, only one is connected via a serial communication cable to the UPS.This workstation or server is called the UPS group controller, while the groups other workstations or servers are called UPS group members. If the UPS group controller shuts down, its group members must shut down. No UPS group member may have a longer shutdown time than the UPS group controller.

For any Compaq server or system device in your network, you can access UPS status information quickly and easily.The Status function provides a color-coded system overview (normal, degraded, or failed) at the status button on the Compaq Power Management Window. The status window provides color-coded information on system elements, including UPS communications, UPS operational status, utility power, battery charge, utility ground fault detection, inverter power, and UPS overload detection.
The Compaq Power Management PowerScope screen provides a graphical, real-time display of the inside of the UPS.
The PowerScope display is a dynamic, functional block diagram of power from the source, through the UPS, and out to the load. For any Compaq server on the network, the PowerScope shows the UPS input and output voltages (color-coded for easy interpretation), available battery run time in minutes, and the percentage load, a measure of the capacity of the UPS.

Compaq Power Management Software provides additional Alert Handling capabilities.These capabilities allow you to customize alert messages in another language, configure the system to execute commands in the occurrence of a particular alert, and to broadcast messages and off-site e-mails in any given alert situation.This ensures that the entire system administration staff is fully informed of any system emergency.
Scheduled Shutdowns
Why spend money on power by running equipment you dont need? Compaq Power Management Software and Compaq UPSs supporting load segments give you the ability to run the equipment you want when you want to. Shutdowns and restarts can be scheduled on a regular basis for each day of the week. If a piece of equipment isnt needed (on weekends and holidays, for example), the system shuts it down and doesnt start it until you program it to do so.
Shutdown/Reboot Flexibility
Use Compaq Power Management Software to Shutdown your UPS with three restart options. An immediate Reboot can be performed, the startup can be timed for any user-specified interval, or it may be permanent until the UPS is restarted manually.
The power event and battery management Logs provide a history of significant system events that can be used for problem detection and resolution.
Logs
Diagnostics
Compaq Power Management Software Diagnostics features a Power Monitor window reminder when its time to run preventive maintenance.You can program the messages for whatever time intervals you need.When you start Diagnostics, you start a simple but vital test of your UPS for approximately 40 seconds, during which your system is put on battery power to test the circuitry.This way you know your UPS will be ready in the event of an emergency.With the Preventative Maintenance feature, you have the ability to schedule reminders every 30, 60, or 90 days to do a test of all UPSs in the system including determining battery condition - to ensure proper UPS operation.

Then, to turn on or off a particular LED, simply press the Self Test/Alarm Silencer button (while in configure mode).The light over the ON button will be green if the LED is on and no light will appear if the LED is off. Can I configure voltage settings via the front panel? Yes, the front panel is the only place you can configure voltages other than the default setting already programmed on the UPS. Refer to the above question on how to change these defaults.

38
A power management software program that acts as a focal point for data collection and configuration of a specific network entity (hardware or software). Agents send data to the power management software console.They are installed and run on each network system.
Battery Management Log
Groups of receptacles on the rear panel of a UPS which can be independently controlled via power management software.
Load Shedding
The ability to divide the total load into segments and to start and stop each load segment individually.
Power Factor
A device for manually opening (breaking) or closing a circuit to interrupt or apply electric power to an electrical apparatus. A circuit breaker can also open a circuit automatically when it senses an overload.
Console
The software program that displays information and controls the system by communicating with agents.The console is used to configure communications port setup, alert handling, shutdown timing, restart delays, and regularly scheduled shutdowns.The console runs on the management station for the network.
Countdown Time
This is a number between 0 and 1 which represents the portion of the VA delivered to the AC load which actually delivers energy to the AC load.With some equipment such as motors or computers, AMPS flow into the equipment without being usefully converted to energy.This happens if the current is distorted (has harmonics) or if the current is not in phase with the voltage applied to the equipment. Computers draw harmonic currents which cause their power factor to be less than one. Motors draw out of phase or reactive currents that cause their power factor to be less than one.
Power Factor Corrected
The time in minutes after the end of wink time that the system waits before starting a shutdown sequence.This interval provides time to finish work and save files. Each minute, the user is informed of the time remaining until shutdown.
LEDs
Light Emitting Diodes located on the front of the UPS that inform users of various UPS operations.
Line-interactive
A UPS containing an off-line inverter that transfers on during a blackout, but providing faster transfer times than a standby UPS. Power conditioning and surge suppression are provided to protect the load.
A characteristic of many new computer power supplies. A power factor corrected supply draws low distortion current from the AC source, typically exhibits low crest factor, and has a power factor rating of approximately one. A non-power factor corrected supply draws highly distorted current and is sometimes referred to as a non linear load.The benefit of power factor corrected supplies is that they do not overheat building wiring or distort the AC source waveform. For this reason they are required in some countries where the IEC 555 standard has been enacted into law.
40
The time in seconds from when the software begins to shut down your system until the power from the UPS shuts off.This interval allows the system to log off servers and users, terminate any applications that may be running, and close all files in the file system.The default value is 90 seconds.
Transformer
A device that raises or lowers the voltage of an alternating current of an electrical source.
UPS Group
Multiple nodes supported by a single UPS. The UPS with the serial communications cable is the UPS Group Controller; all others are UPS Group Members.With regard to Compaq Power Management Software, this feature maximizes network control and saves money.
Wink Time
The interval between an alert situation and the transmission of an alert message from the system to the user.The interval can be extended to reduce nuisance messages or shortened to reduce reliance on the battery. The default is 5 seconds.
