2. Disengage the two screws that secure the battery module in place (1) and slide out the battery module (2). WARNING: The UPS R12000 XR battery module weighs 27 kg (60 lb). Prepare the area and observe all materials-handling procedures for removing the battery module.
IMPORTANT: The batteries will charge to 80 percent of their capacity within approximately three hours. Compaq recommends allowing the batteries to charge for 24 hours before using the UPS to supply backup power to devices. The load may not be fully protected for 48 hours.
Battery Maintenance Conducting a Battery Commissioning Test When replacing battery modules, Compaq recommends running a battery commissioning test. This test will set a base line so that the UPS accurately displays battery run-time. See the section, “Set Hardware Configuration,” in Chapter 3 for instructions on enabling the battery commissioning test.
Pre-Failure Battery Warranty The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty, standard on all Compaq UPS units, extends the advantage of a Compaq three-year limited warranty by applying it to the battery before it actually fails. Specifically, the Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that when customers receive notification from Compaq power management software that the battery may fail, the battery is replaced free of charge under the warranty.
