HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR EQUIPMENT
1. Ensure that the equipment plugged into the UPS does not exceed the UPS unit's rated capacity
(650VA/400W for RT650EI and 500VA/300W for RT500EI). 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 electronic equipment will require.
For optimal system performance keep the load below 80% of the unit's rated capacity.

BASIC OPERATION

DESCRIPTION
1. LED Indicators
The LED indicators will illuminate to show the status of power: on line, on battery, overload, replace
battery.
2. Power Switch
To turn the UPS ON, press the power button for approximately 2 seconds - you will hear a constant tone
and release after a short beep.
To turn the UPS OFF, press the power button for approximately 2 seconds - you will hear a constant
tone and release after two short beeps.
Mute mode: The audible alarm can be turned Off or On by quickly pressing the POWER button twice.
The default setting is for the Alarm On. To turn the Alarm Off, quickly press the power button twice. You
will hear two short beeps when the Alarm is turned Off. To turn the Alarm back On, quickly press the
power button twice. You will hear a single short beep when the Alarm is turned On. *When the Alarm is
turned Off, there will be no audible notification when the UPS goes to Battery mode or reaches a low
battery state.
3. Communication Protection Ports
Communication protection ports will protect any standard modem, fax, telephone line, network or
Ethernet connection (RJ11/RJ45).
4. USB Port to PC
The USB port allows connection and communication between the USB port on the computer and the
UPS unit. The UPS communicates its status to the PowerPanel
5. Communication Port to PC
This port allows connection and communication between the UPS and computer. The UPS
communicates its status to the PowerPanel
ordering a serial cable for the unit, please contact technical support at CyberPower System.
NOTE: Only one of communication port and USB port can be used as communication and control of the
K01-0000540-00
UPS unit at one time.
6. Battery and Surge Protected Outlets
The unit has battery powered/surge suppression outlets to ensure temporary uninterrupted operation of
your equipment during a power failure. (DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper shredder, copier, space
heater, vacuum cleaner, sump pump, or other large electrical device into the "Battery and Surge
Protected Outlets." The power demands of these devices will overload and possibly damage the
unit.)
7. Circuit Breaker
Located on the back of the UPS, the circuit breaker serves to provide overload and fault protection.
8. AC Input
Connect the AC Power cord to a properly wired and grounded outlet.
1. Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt. However, after receiving a new UPS, to ensure
the battery's maximum charge capacity, it is recommended that you charge the battery for at least 8
hours. Your UPS is equipped with an auto-charge feature. When the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet,
the battery will automatically charge when it's turned on or turned off.
Note: This UPS is designed with a safety feature to keep the system from being turned on during
shipment. The first time you turn the UPS on, you will need to have it connected to AC power or it
will not power up.
2. With the UPS unit turned off and unplugged, connect your computer, monitor, and any other peripherals
requiring battery backup from the SURGE & BATTERY outlets. DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper
shredder, copier, space heater, vacuum cleaner, sump pump, or other large electrical device into
the "Battery and Surge Protected Outlets". The power demands of these devices will overload
and possibly damage the unit.
3. To protect a fax, phone, or modem line, connect a telephone cable from the wall jack outlet to the IN jack
of the UPS. Connect a telephone cable from the UPS OUT jack to protect a modem port on the computer,
a telephone, or fax machine.
4. Plug the UPS into a 2 pole, 3 wire grounded 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 in conjunction with the UPS unit.
5. 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.
6. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times.
7. To store the UPS for an extended period of time, cover it and store with the battery fully charged. While in
storage, recharge the battery every three months to ensure optimal battery life.
8. Ensure the wall outlet and UPS are located near the equipment being attached for
proper accessibility.
9. The UPS can lie down on the left direction during operation. DO NOT lie down on
the other side which may block the ventilation hole and hinder the heat dissipation.
CAUTION! Read and follow the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before servicing the battery.
Service the battery under the supervision of personnel knowledgeable of batteries and their
precautions.
CAUTION! Use only the specified type of battery. See your dealer for replacement batteries.
CAUTION! The battery may present the risk of electrical shock. Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, as they
may explode. Follow all local ordinances regarding proper disposal of batteries.
CAUTION! Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes and
may be toxic.
CAUTION! A battery can present a high risk of short circuit current and electrical shock. Take the following
precautions before replacing the battery:
1. Remove all watches, rings or other metal objects.
2. Only use tools with insulated handles.
3. DO NOT lay tools or other metal parts on top of battery or any battery terminals.
4. Wear rubber gloves and boots.
5. Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source of ground.
