Follow these steps to install the UPS: ① Remove the front cover of each UPS, hold and extract the right cover part (without LCD) from the panel (see fig. 7). Fig. 7 – Extract the UPS front cover ② Connect the internal battery connector red to red (see fig. 8). Press the connector firmly in to ensure a proper connection.
Fig. 10 ⑤ If you are installing a power management software, connect your computer to one of the communication ports or optional connectivity card. For the communication ports, use an appropriate cable. ⑥ If your rack has conductors for grounding or for bonding of ungrounded metal parts, then connect the ground cable (not supplied) to the ground bonding screw.
CAUTION: A small electric arc may occur when connecting the internal batteries (EBP) to the UPS. This is normal and will not harm personnel. Connect the cables quickly and firmly. ④ Plug the EBP cable(s) into the battery connector(s) (see fig. 13). Up to four EPBs may be connected to the UPS.
