Installation Procedure

1. Switch off your computer, and unplug it from the socket-
outlet.
2. Disconnect the power cord from the computer (rating
250Vac/10A) and connect this cord to the male input
socket (2) at the rear of the UPS.
3. Using the output cord provided, connect the computer
to the appliance outlets (3) of the unit.
4. Connect the mains cord of the UPS to a working,
grounded AC wall socket outlet. The green LED 'LINE'
will blink now: mains power is available and the
batteries are charging.
Probably LED 'BAT' blinks; the LED goes out as soon
as the batteries have been charged.
5. For best results, allow the UPS to recharge the batteries
during a period of approx. 10 hours. It is acceptable to
use the UPS without first charging the battery, but the
runtime may be reduced.
6. For advanced communication possibilities, the RS232
interface port (4) can be connected to a computer
system. See chapter 4.
3.1

Start-up

3.1.1

Start-up, mains available

1. Press keypad 'ON/TEST' for 2 seconds
LED 'LINE' (already blinking) will illuminate continuously now.
2. The equipment connected to the UPS can now be switched on.
3.1.2

Start-up, mains not available

If the mains input is absent (power cord not connected, or mains failure):
1. Press keypad 'ON/TEST' for 4 seconds until LED 'BAT' illuminates.
The UPS operates on battery: it discharges the batteries.
3.2

Use: Normal Operation

3.2.1 Normal operation conditions:
- the mains supply is present,
- the UPS is on,
- the load does not exceed the capacity of the UPS and
- the operating temperature is below alarm level.
AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation):
If the quality of the incoming mains is poor, the AVR boosts a low incoming voltage or reduces a
high one. The load receives a voltage within the normal range (see chapter 7).
3.2.2 Self test (UPS operation and battery condition)
During normal operation, press keypad 'ON/TEST' for 1 second.
If the battery does not pass the self test, a 'replace battery' alarm is given. See 3.3.
In case of a system failure the output voltage can be lost. It is therefore recommended to switch
off the load before performing a self test. See chapter 6.
3.2.3

Switching off

Press keypad 'OFF' for 2 seconds.
If electric isolation is required, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
