WHAT IS AVR?
The CP685AVR-G / CP825AVR-G provide complete power protection from
utility power that is not always consistent. The CP685AVR-G / CP825AVR-G
feature 890 Joules / 1030 Joules of surge protection, and provide long lasting
battery backup during power outages. The CP685AVR-G / CP825AVR-G
ensure consistent power to your computer system and include software that
will automatically save your open files and shutdown your computer system
during a utility power loss.
AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATOR
The CP685AVR-G / CP825AVR-G stabilize utility power voltage levels that
can be inconsistent. The incoming utility power may be damaging to
important data files and hardware, but with Automatic Voltage Regulation, the
computer will not experience damaging voltage levels. An Automatic Voltage
Regulator automatically increases low or decreases high voltage to a
consistent, computer safe 110v/120v. The unit's powerful battery will provide
power only if the incoming voltage drops below 90v or increases above 140v.

HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR EQUIPMENT
1. Ensure that the equipment plugged into the outlet does not exceed the UPS unit's rated capacity (685VA/390W for CP685AVR-G,
825VA/450W for CP825AVR-G). If the rated capacities of the unit are exceeded, an overload condition may occur and cause the UPS unit
to shut down or the circuit breaker to trip.
2. There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your computer system will require. It is suggested that the load you will be
placing on the outlet not exceed 80% of the unit's capacity.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt. However, recharging the
battery for at least 8 hours is recommended to ensure that the battery's maximum
charge capacity is achieved. A loss of charge may occur during shipping and
storage. To recharge the battery, simply leave the unit plugged into an AC outlet.
2. With the UPS unit off and unplugged, connect your computer, monitor, and any other
peripherals requiring battery backup into the battery power supplied outlets. Plug
your other peripheral equipment (printer, scanner, speakers) into the full-time surge protection outlets. DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper
shredder, copier, space heater, vacuum, sump pump or other large electrical device into battery and surge protected outlets. The
power demands of these devices will overload and possibly damage the unit.
3. To protect a network connection from surges, connect a network cable into the IN jack of the UPS. Then connect
a network cable from the OUT jack on the UPS to the network device.
4. Plug the UPS into a 2 pole, 3 wire grounding receptacle (wall outlet). Make sure the wall branch outlet is
protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with large electrical demands (e.g. air
conditioner, refrigerator, copier, etc...). The warranty prohibits the use of extension cords, outlet strips, and surge strips.
5. Press the power switch to turn the unit on. The power on indicator light will illuminate and the unit will "beep".
6. If an overload is detected, an audible alarm will sound and the unit will emit one long beep. To correct this, turn the UPS off and unplug at
least one piece of equipment from the battery power supplied outlets. Make sure the circuit breaker is depressed and then turn the UPS on.
7. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times.
8. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully charged. While in storage recharge the battery every three
months to ensure battery life.
