Okay, so when I got my HP 9000 I also got a massive UPS system consisting of two bajillion pound 2U battery packs and another ten bajillion pound inverter/voltage regulator. The whole thing inputs and outputs 200-240V.
Anyways, While I was assured it worked the last time it was powered on I'm having trouble wiring it up. The best place in my house to get a 220V connection is my dryer. The dryer outlets here have +120v, -120v, common (neutral), and ground. The UPS on the other hand is not wired in a four wire setup. All you are given is a ground terminal and two other terminals marked "N/H2" and "L1/H1" From what it looks like you can't use the ground terminal as the common so that means you somehow have to get a 220v connection from +120 and -120 which sounds okay until you relize that with no place to put the common wire you can't complete the circuit.
Can someone explain what's going on here?
