Introduction
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your choice of the Liebert UPStation GXT2-6000RT230 and GXT2-4500RT230
Uninterruptible Power System (UPS). It provides conditioned power to microcomputers and other
sensitive electronic equipment.
Upon generation, AC power is clean and stable. However, during transmission and distribution it
may be subject to voltage sags, spikes, or complete power failure that may interrupt computer opera-
tions, cause data loss, or even damage equipment. The UPStation GXT2 protects equipment from
these disturbances.
The UPStation GXT2 comes in nominal power ratings of 4500 VA and 6000 VA. Complete model spec-
ifications appear at the end of this manual.
The UPStation GXT2 is a compact, on-line UPS. An on-line UPS continuously conditions and regu-
lates its output voltage, whether mains power is present or not. It supplies connected equipment with
clean sinewave power. Sensitive electronic equipment operates best from sinewave power.
For ease of use, the UPStation GXT2 features a light-emitting diode (LED) display to indicate both
load percentage and battery capacity. It also provides self-diagnostic tests, a combination ON/Alarm
Silence/Manual Battery Test button, a Standby button, user configurable program, and two levels of
alarms when the unit is operating on battery.
The UPStation GXT2 has an interface port for communication between the UPS and a network server
or other computer systems. This port provides detailed operating information including voltages, cur-
rents, and alarm status to the host system when used in conjunction with Liebert MultiLink™ soft-
ware. MultiLink software can also remotely control UPS operation.

2.2
Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS) and EMI/RFI Filters
These UPS components provide surge protection and filter both electromagnetic interference (EMI)
and radio frequency interference (RFI). They minimize any surges or interference present in the
mains line and keep the sensitive equipment protected.
Rectifier/Power Factor Correction (PFC) Circuit
In normal operation, the rectifier/power factor correction (PFC) circuit converts mains AC power to
regulated DC power for use by the inverter while ensuring that the waveshape of the input current
used by the UPS is near ideal. Extracting this sinewave input current achieves two objectives:
• The mains power is used as efficiently as possible by the UPS.
• The amount of distortion reflected on the mains is reduced.
This results in cleaner power being available to other devices in the building not being protected by
the UPStation GXT2.
2.3
2.4
Inverter
In normal operation, the inverter utilizes the DC output of the power factor correction circuit and
inverts it into precise, regulated sinewave AC power. Upon a mains power failure, the inverter
receives its required energy from the battery through the DC to DC converter. In both modes of oper-
ation, the UPS inverter is on-line and continuously generating clean, precise, Regulated Ac Output
Power.
Battery Charger
The battery charger utilizes energy from the mains power and precisely regulates it to continuously
float charge the batteries. The batteries are being charged whenever the UPStation GXT2 is con-
nected to mains power.

System Description
2.5
2.6
DC-to-DC Converter
The DC to DC converter utilizes energy from the battery system and raises the DC voltage to the opti-
mum operating voltage for the inverter. This allows the inverter to operate continuously at its opti-
mum efficiency and voltage, thus increasing reliability.
Battery
The UPStation GXT2 utilizes valve-regulated, nonspillable, lead acid batteries. To maintain battery
design life, operate the UPS
in an ambient temperature of 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F). Optional external battery cabinets are
available to extend battery run times.
2.7
Dynamic Bypass
The UPStation GXT2 provides an alternate path for mains power to the connected load in the
unlikely event of a UPS malfunction. Should the UPS have an overload, overtemperature, or UPS
failure condition, the UPS automatically transfers the connected load to bypass. Bypass operation is
indicated by an audible alarm and illuminated amber Bypass LED (other LEDs may be illuminated to
indicate the diagnosed problem). To manually transfer the connected load from the inverter to bypass,
press the Standby button once.
NOTE
The bypass power path does NOT protect the connected equipment from disturbances
in the mains supply.

Operating Instructions
9.0 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
9.1
Normal Mode Operation
During normal operation, mains power provides energy to the
UPS. The filters, power factor correction circuit and the inverter
process this power to provide computer grade power to connected
loads. The UPS maintains the batteries in a fully charged state.
The four green load level LEDs indicate an approximate level of
load in 25% increments. If the UPS becomes loaded beyond full
rating, the fifth (amber) LED indicator will illuminate and the
UPS will sound an audible alarm. The display template indicates
the percentage of load (10% of load shown in example) on the UPS
output.

Battery Mode Operation
Battery mode occurs in event of an extreme input voltage condition
or complete mains failure. The battery system supplies power
through the DC to DC converter to the inverter to generate power
for the connected load. During battery mode an alarm sounds
every 10 seconds. This will change to two beeps every 5 seconds
when the battery runs low (approximately 2 minutes remaining,
but this is user configurable). The AC Input LED will extinguish,
and the Battery LED will illuminate to warn that a mains problem
has occurred. Each battery level indicator represents a 20% capac-
ity level. As capacity decreases, fewer indicators remain illumi-

10.2 Pin 4 - Remote Shutdown on Battery
1. 1. This pin is functional only when the UPS is in battery mode. If the UPS is being powered by the
mains, Pin 4 will ignore any signal on this pin.
2. 2. Pin 4 requires a 5-12 VDC signal to shutdown. This normally comes form the serial port using
Liebert's contact closure cable. It cannot be used with just a contact closure unless the relay is
used to switch a voltage source. A 5-12 VDC signal for 1.5 seconds or greater is required to signal
a shutdown. Signals for less than 1.5 seconds will be ignored. After Pin 4 receives a shutdown
signal for 1.5 seconds, the command cannot be canceled.
3. 3. A battery shutdown signal on Pin 4 will NOT cause an immediate Shutdown. A shutdown
signal will start a 2-minute shutdown timer. The timer cannot be stopped. After 2 minutes, the
UPS will shut down.
4. 4. If the mains returns during the 2-minute timer countdown, the shutdown timer will continue
until the end of 2 minutes and the UPS will turn OFF. The UPS must remain OFF for at least
10 seconds even if AC input power Returns before the UPS turns OFF. This serves to reset and
restart the server.
Whether the UPS turns back ON when power is restored depends on the auto-restart setting: enabled
or disabled.
If the auto-restart is disabled, the UPS will not restart after performing the 2-minute shutdown
delay.

Liebert's MultiLink software continually monitors the UPS and can shut down your computer or
server in the event of an extended power failure.
MultiLink can also be configured for use without the serial cable when the Intellislot SNMP/Web card
is installed in the UPS. Additionally, MultiLink can be configured to coordinate shutdown across the
network with other computers running MultiLink when you purchase a MultiLink License Kit. For
more information about the Intellislot SNMP/Web Card and MultiLink license Kits, visit our Web site
Several option cards are available for use in the Intellislot port of the UPStation GXT2. The Intellislot
SNMP/Web Card provides SNMP and Web-based monitoring and control of the UPS across the net-
work.
The Intellislot MultiPort 4 Card allows you to install MultiLink software on four computers and coor-
dinate shutdown in the event of a power failure.
The Intellislot Relay Card provides dry contact relay outputs for custom wired applications and deliv-
ers support for built-in shutdown for AS/400 systems.

Troubleshooting
12.0.1 Auto-Learning Battery Run Times
As batteries age, the estimated runtimes may become less accurate. The GXT2 is programmed to
“learn” from a full battery discharge and modify the estimated runtime for the measured battery
capacity. This can improve accuracy and compensate for aging batteries or batteries that operate at
different ambient temperatures.
The UPS will update the anticipated run time calculation only under certain conditions.
• The UPS must have a steady load that is greater than 20%.
• The UPS must be at 100% charge at the start of a battery discharge.
• The battery discharge must continue uninterrupted until the batteries reach their end-of-dis-
charge voltage.
If all conditions are not met, the run time calculation will not be modified.
If the configuration program is used to change the number of battery cabinets, then the values in the
battery above table will be restored. This will override any value that is Auto-Learned.
