Critical Suspension
Critical suspension occurs when input power is not available and the UPS is either not installed or is discharged to
a very low state. During critical suspension all circuitry is shutdown except for memory retention and the real-time
clock. During critical suspension the VC5090 is receiving power from the backup battery or residual power from the
UPS. The backup battery retains data for at least 72 hours. Critical suspension occurs when:
• a VC5090 without a UPS is in suspend mode and external power is removed.
• the VC5090 is receiving power from the UPS and the UPS discharges.
