  • Uninterruptible power supply system with removable front panel display and control module
    Patent number: 5995400
    Abstract: An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system includes a control and display module operational with a UPS when carried by a housing of the UPS and when remote from the housing. An orientation sensing switch carried by the module senses a horizontal or vertical position of the module and provides a signal to a module processor for providing performance diagnostics of the UPS in a horizontal or vertical format as appropriate. The UPS system housing includes support arms extendable from the housing for providing added stability to the housing when in a vertical position. The control and display processor receives manual input from user buttons on the module and communicates with a UPS processor carried by the housing. The UPS includes a battery positioned within the housing for access by removal of a front housing panel for avoiding movement of the UPS system during replacement of batteries.
