2. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION  
The XRT series of Uninterruptible pow er supplies are based on an  
advanced true sinew ave pow er system that filters and protects the  
electronic equipment from all types of pow er line problems. The various  
models provide from 600 VA to 2000 VA of power for voltage ranges of  
120 VAC, 208 VAC and 240 VAC single phase 60 Hz. units, and 220  
VAC through 240 VAC 50 Hz. units. At all pow er levels and voltage  
ranges the load is protected against AC line spikes, surges, dropouts,  
brow nouts and blackouts. All 60 Hertz models include electrical isolation  
from the pow er line to the AC load. During operation, all of the critical  
parameters are continuously monitored. The parameters may be  
monitored at the UPS w ith an LED display on the XRT600, or w ith a  
sophisticated LCD display that contains 32 characters on the XRT1000  
and larger units. In all models the communications port can be used w ith  
the Minuteman Sentry or Pow erMon softw are to report all of the critical  
parameters as w ell as controlling the UPS’ s functions via remote control.  
Built in is the provision for a remote master Output Pow er OFF sw itch so  
that a user-supplied pow er dow n sw itch or relay can immediately shut off  
the output pow er.  
The XRT series of UPSs are “ Line-Interactive” . That is, during normal  
operation from the AC line, the line AC is passed through an isolation  
transformer* and filtering system that provides the maximum efficiency,  
safety and reliability. During normal AC operation, the incoming line  
voltage is continuously monitored and automatic correction is made for  
under-voltage or over-voltage conditions. This provides AC line correction  
for a range of 75% to 116% of the nominal line voltage. When these  
limits are exceeded, or if the line frequency varies more than plus or  
minus 3 Hertz, the unit automatically sw itches to battery pow er until  
normal AC is restored. In normal operation the battery is continuously  
charged so that full battery pow er is alw ays available.  
*Isolation transformer is on the 60 Hz. units only.

FEATURES  
Extended Battery Run Time  
All models of the XRT series may add multiple optional external XRTBP  
battery packs to extend the time that the units can provide pow er. UPS  
de-rating is not required for the additional battery packs. The XRT600  
model contains an internal battery, w hereas the higher pow er models  
require at least one XRTBP battery pack.  
RFI/EMI Suppression  
The design features, not only the standard input line filtering, but  
contains a specially manufactured transformer* that shields the output  
from line and inverter spikes resulting from capacitive coupling betw een  
w indings. This double protection insures that interference and spikes  
cannot get to your equipment, and conversely your equipment cannot  
transmit spikes to other equipment on the pow er line.  
No Power Factor De-rating  
The XRT series of UPS’ s automatically support pow er factors in the  
range of 0.6 to 1.0. This means that no de-rating is required for high  
pow er factors since the unit is capable of supplying full rated pow er  
(instantaneous w atts) in either the ON-LINE or On-Battery conditions.  
Enhanced Battery Management  
To maintain the service life of the battery, the XRT provides various  
features. During normal on-line functions the XRT continuously monitors  
the battery voltage and keeps the battery at full charge via an intelligent  
battery charger built into the unit. The battery’ s condition is monitored at  
all times, and if a low battery condition is detected, the condition is  
reported to the front panel and to the serial communications port. If a low  
battery condition is detected, the unit w ill continue to function on the AC  
line. While the unit is on-line, the external battery pack(s) may be  
replaced w ithout disruption to the output pow er. In the XRT1000,  
XRT1500 and XRT2000 units, the battery charge condition is reported by  
the battery voltage on the LCD display screen, w hereas in the XRT600  
unit the battery charge condition is reported by LED’ s on the front panel.  
Remote Communication and Control  
Built into the XRT series is a Minuteman standard RS-232  
communications port. With the Minuteman Pow er Management softw are,  
2-w ay communications can be maintained w ith a remote computer. All  
pertinent data about the UPS can be transmitted to the computer, and  
9
 
commands from the computer can control the UPS. The interface also  
allow s a single sw itch to control the output pow er from the UPS so that a  
user-supplied Output Pow er Off sw itch or relay can immediately remove  
pow er from the load, or restore pow er once the problem has been  
corrected. See Remote Communications chapter for details of the  
communications port.  
Built in Self Test  
To insure the functionality of the UPS, there are four built-in self tests.  
The first is w hen the unit is sw itched on, a self test is run to insure the  
operation of the backup mode, the condition of the battery and the  
inverter circuit. This test takes about 10 seconds. Pressing the Test  
button, or selecting the Quick Test command from the LCD menu w ill run  
the built-in self test, verifying the operation of the UPS. The third test  
mode runs a self test every 14 days to insure the UPS is alw ays ready to  
respond to a pow er problem. The fourth test is the Test to Low Battery  
Warning and verifies the condition of the battery system by sw itching to  
inverter pow er until the battery reaches the Low Battery Warning  
condition and then sw itching back to the ON-LINE mode. During the  
Test to Low Battery” , you may monitor all of the status values and  
terminate the test at any time.  
The XRT1000 through XRT2000 units have a 32 character LCD display,  
three push buttons, and the Pow er On and DC Start sw itches.  
The Pow er and DC Start sw itch operate the same as the XRT600.  
The LCD display w ill step you through all of the functions of the UPS.  
The top line of the display indicates the parameter and function, and the  
bottom line displays the function of the three buttons below the display.

3. INSTALLATION  
CAUTION: Do not connect a laser printer to the UPS along w ith other  
computer equipment unless the UPS is rated at 2000 VA or higher. A  
laser printer periodically draw s significantly more pow er than w hen idle,  
and may overload the UPS. Verify that the UPS can support the loads  
w hen the printer is in full operation (printing).  
PROTECTION STRATEGIES  
Minuteman UPS’ s provide high quality protection from AC input pow er  
line disturbances to your equipment. How ever, there are other potential  
entry points for damaging surges in information systems. These include  
serial ports (RS232, RS422, RS485, etc.), parallel ports (especially  
printers not connected to the UPS), telephone lines and netw ork  
connections. These other entries must be considered in developing a  
comprehensive system protection strategy. Contact your dealer or  
Minuteman for information on a complete set of related products  
designed to accomplish total system protection. There are some  
guidelines listed below that w ill help in your installation, w hether or not  
secondary protection is available.  
Verify that all electrical outlets are properly grounded.  
Do not connect the UPS and protected equipment to the same electrical  
service branch that heavy motor loads like air conditioners, copiers,  
refrigerators, and heavy electrical machinery are on. Plug all pow er  
protection and protected equipment into the same branch w here  
possible.  
Follow the next steps to install your UPS.  
INSTALLATION PLACEMENT  
Select the location of the UPS and optional battery pack(s) w ith care and  
use the follow ing precautions:  
Select a location that provides unrestricted air flow . It is important to  
leave at least 2 inches of space betw een any object and the sides of the  
UPS.  
11  
 
Do not place anything on the top of the UPS.  
Avoid locations near heating devices.  
Avoid locations near water or excessive humidity.  
Do not expose the UPS to direct sunlight.  
Route power cords where they cannot be walked on or  
damaged, or surrounded by other power cords or  
communication cables.  
Use common sense about placing the UPS where it  
cannot be accidentally bumped or turned over.  
The battery packs and UPS unit must be placed on a level, smooth  
surface and cannot be stacked more than 4 units high. The UPS unit  
must be the topmost unit. A multiple battery pack suggested layout is  
shown below:  
Remember to leave at least 2 inches of clearance  
around the UPS unit for air flow.  
12  
 
INSTALLATION, STEP BY STEP  
1. Insure UPS Pow er sw itch is OFF. Place the optional XRTBP  
battery pack(s), if used, and XRT UPS in its final location.  
2. When installing the XRT1000 and above UPS’ s or the XRT600  
with optional battery pack(s):  
a) Remove the self stick protective strip from the rear of the XRT600  
(not required on XRT1000 , 1500, and 2000), and from the optional  
battery pack cable.  
b) Loosen the retainer screw s on the rear of the UPS and drop the  
retainer bracket dow n.  
c) Plug the battery pack cable connector into the XRT remote battery  
pack connector insuring connections mate RED to RED and  
BLACK to BLACK. Push the retaining bracket “ up” to secure the  
battery connector in place and re-tighten the screw s.  
d) Verify the bracket w ill not allow removal of the connector.  
Each  
battery pack is “ daisy chained” in a similar fashion w ith the cable  
from the last battery pack connected to the previous pack. Remove  
the protective strips only from the battery connectors that are  
used.  
NOTE: When the protective strip is removed from the XRT UPS or the  
XRTBP cable connector, battery system voltage (48 VDC) is  
present at these connector contacts. Please keep the connector  
contacts covered with the protective strip when not mated with  
another connector.

3. If you have additional Transient Voltage Surge Suppression (TVSS)  
devices in your system, they may be connected to the Earth Ground lug  
at the rear of the UPS. This provides a single point connection to  
minimize the potential of surges to disrupt the system. This lug is  
connected to the SAFETY GROUND lead in the AC input pow er cable.  
4. Plug in the UPS to the utility pow er outlet.  
XRT600, XRT1000, XRT1500 and XRT2000 Back panels  
NOTE: Due to various input and output options available, your unit  
may not be pictured exactly.  
The XRT600, XRT600/2, XRT1000, XRT1000/2 and XRT2000/2 are fitted  
w ith an IEC 320 input pow er connector. The remaining units have a pre-  
installed pow er cord to match their input pow er requirements and  
voltages. The IEC 320 connector is the familiar computer input pow er  
connector. XRT600 and XRT1000 units sold in the United States come  
w ith an input pow er cable w ith a standard 5-15 male plug on one end and  
an IEC 320 female plug on the other. Plug the IEC 320 connector into the  
UPS and the male plug into a standard w all socket. Pow er cords for all  
international models must be ordered separately if required.  
5, If used, plug your remote communications line, into the DB-9  
communications port connector. Your UPS w ill function correctly w ithout  
using the port.  
6. Turn the Pow er sw itch to the “ on” position. With commercial pow er  
present and in the correct voltage and frequency range, the UPS w ill  
14  
 
automatically run a self test and at the successful completion, provide  
pow er to the output receptacles and indicate “ normal AC” . Certain faults  
w ill prevent the UPS from supplying pow er to your equipment and w ill  
cause an error status to be displayed and an audible alarm to sound. If  
this occurs see the TROUBLESHOOTING section. To insure the  
batteries are completely charged, it is a good idea to leave the UPS on  
for 8 hours before using it to run your system. We understand that in  
most cases you may not have the luxury of w aiting for the batteries to  
become fully charged, therefore you may install your equipment and  
begin using the UPS immediately. If a pow er failure occurs before the  
batteries are fully charged, the UPS may not supply pow er for the length  
of time you w ould normally expect in battery backup mode.  
7. Plug all equipment to be protected into the UPS output receptacles.  
Insure that you do not exceed the maximum output power  
capability of the XRT UPS (refer to UPS back panel or  
electrical specifications in this manual).  
Turn on your protected equipment one unit at a time and  
verify that the 100% Load” condition is not exceeded.  
Depending on the XRT model, the Load condition will be  
displayed on the front panel as follows:  
a) The XRT600 w ill provide an indication of the UPS status on the  
LED front panel.  
XRT600 Front Panel Showing Load LED’s  
b) The XRT1000 and above w ill display the UPS status on the LCD  
screen.

ALARMS AND WARNINGS  
Alarms  
Conditions that may require immediate attention w ill be signaled by the  
UPS beeping it’ s audible alarm. The follow ing is a list of alarms the XRT  
UPS reports:  
On Battery (AC Fail)  
When the UPS has detected a condition that forces it to run from the  
battery, an alarm w ill sound every 30 seconds. The alarm stops w hen  
normal AC returns to the unit. Pressing the Test/Alarm Silence button on  
the XRT600 w ill silence this alarm. How ever, a new alarm w ill sound if any  
of the other alarm conditions occur. In the XRT1000 and higher units, the  
audible alarm w ill be complimented by a display on the LCD screen  
indicating the exact nature of the alarm, and may be turned off by  
selecting the SETUP menu and turning the alarm off. Shutting off the  
audible alarm in this fashion does not affect the alarm reporting through  
the communications port or the LCD screen.  
Overload  
The UPS is overloaded w hen the supplied loads exceeds 110% of the  
rating show n in the GENERAL PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS section of  
this manual. In an overload condition, the XRT600 w ill blink the top four  
LED’ s, and on the XRT1000 and above, the “ Overload” message will be  
displayed. The audible alarm w ill sound every 1/2 second. If the fault is not  
cleared w ithin 30 seconds, or if the overload exceeds 115% of the rating,  
the UPS w ill shut itself dow n.  
Low Battery Warning  
When the UPS is running on its batteries and the battery voltage drops to  
approximately 42 Volts, the Low Battery Warning w ill sound, beeping  
every 1/2 second. The Low Battery Warning light on the LED front panel  
w ill blink, and on the LCD front panel, the “ Battery Low ” message w ill be  
displayed. If the battery voltage drops to 39 volts, the UPS w ill shut itself  
down.  
Check Fan  
If the cooling fan fails, the Check Fan alarm w ill sound, beeping every 1/2  
second. The UPS w ill shut itself dow n after 60 seconds.  
24  
 
WARNING EVENTS  
Line Voltage Regulation  
The UPS w ill w arn you w hen the incoming utility pow er exceeds its  
normal limits. On the LED front panel the Voltage Regulator LED w ill light,  
indicating the incoming voltage is out of range. On the LCD front panel,  
you w ill see a “ Low Voltage In” or “ High Voltage In” message. In either  
case the audible alarm w ill not sound.  
Output Voltage Switching  
The Output of the UPS may be turned OFF or ON by any of three w ays  
other than the pow er sw itch. The XRT1000 and above output AC may be  
manually turned on or off by selecting the Output On or Off command in  
the SETUP menu. In all models the output may be turned on or off via the  
RS-232 Serial port or by using the user supplied Output Pow er Off sw itch.  
The XRT1000 and above units w ill notify you by the “ OUT OFF Ext CNTL”  
screen if the output w as turned off from the RS-232 command, or “ OUT  
OFF Man CNTL” screen if the output w as turned off from the Output Pow er  
Off switch (see the SETUP menu section). The XRT600 does not have this  
reporting feature, but if no pow er is being supplied from the UPS and the  
AC Pow er LED is lit, then the probable reason is that the output has been  
turned off.  
OPTIONS  
The options available for the XRT series UPS’ s are in three categories.  
Battery Packs  
Multiple XRTBP1 and XRTBP3 battery packs may be ordered to configure  
your system for various loads and battery runtimes. A short table of loads  
and battery packs for the expected run times are show n in the GENERAL  
PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS section.  
Software  
Complete pow er management softw are is available from Minuteman as an  
option.  
Back-panel Receptacles  
Standard back-panel receptacle configurations for the various XRT models  
are show n in the GENERAL PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS section of this  
manual. Special configurations can be ordered directly from Minuteman.  
25  
 
5. SYSTEM BATTERIES  
The batteries used in the XRT series of UPS’ s and the XRTBP battery  
packs are sealed, maintenance-free, lead-acid batteries, w ith the  
electrolyte completely absorbed in the plates and separator material. For  
maximum battery life, battery temperature should be kept as cool as  
practical indoors. Expected average battery life is 5 years. The XRT units  
monitor the condition of the batteries and indicate w hen the batteries are  
low . If, after charging for an appropriate time, (according to the number of  
battery packs on the system) and the batteries are still low , this indicates  
the batteries should be replaced. Replacement batteries and battery  
packs are available from Minuteman or your local distributor or dealer.  
When batteries are replaced, dispose of the batteries according to local  
regulations or return the batteries to your dealer or distributor for proper  
disposal. If you cannot dispose of the old batteries, they may be returned  
to Minuteman for proper disposal. Call Minuteman Technical Support for  
instructions on returning the batteries.  
NOTE: Only the XRTBP battery packs are to be used with the XRT  
units. The XRT UPS has the DC battery negative terminal tied to the  
AC ground at the remote communications port. Other battery  
systems may have the DC battery positive terminal tied to AC  
ground. This would result in a direct short and may damage the  
unit and void your warranty.  
STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS  
If the UPS is to be stored, allow the batteries to fully charge for 24 hours,  
then store the unit in a cool, dry location. For extended storage in  
moderate climates, the batteries should be charged for 8 hours every 3  
months. Repeat this operation every 2 months in high temperature  
locations.  
26  
 
BATTERY REPLACEMENT  
It is recommended that you turn the UPS off and disconnect the input  
pow er cord from the receptacles prior to connecting or disconnecting the  
battery terminals. Only UPS’ s that have external battery packs can be  
changed “ HOT” , that is w ith AC pow er connected to the unit, and w hile  
supplying pow er to your equipment. If battery packs MUST be changed  
w hile pow er is on, they can ONLY be changed w hile the AC line is  
supplying pow er to the protected equipment. Be extremely careful w hile  
plugging or unplugging additional battery packs. Insure that the cable  
connectors have the Red and Black terminals aligned before plugging  
together. Improper alignment may result in a short circuit that can destroy  
the battery packs and the UPS, as w ell as causing a fire and injury  
hazard. If the units must be opened to replace the batteries, the follow ing  
precautions should be follow ed;  
1. Disconnect all receptacles, line cords and battery connectors  
BEFORE removing the case screw s.  
2. Remove w atches, rings, and other metallic jewelry before  
servicing the batteries.  
3. Use tools w ith insulated handles.  
4. Wear protective gloves and eye-wear.  
5. Do not lay tools or other objects on top of the batteries.  
6. Insure all connections to the new batteries are EXACTLY the  
same as they w ere from the old batteries. It is recommended that  
you make yourself a sketch of the batteries and their connections  
BEFORE you attempt to remove the old batteries.  
7. Verify all of the battery brackets and mechanical fittings are  
replaced exactly as they w ere removed.  
27
