INSTALLING YOUR UPS SYSTEM
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. 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.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE
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 eight
hours. Your UPS is equipped with an
auto-charge feature. When the UPS is
plugged into an AC outlet, the battery will
automatically charge whether the UPS is
turned on or turned off.
2. With the UPS unit turned off and
unplugged, connect your computer,
monitor, and any other peripherals requiring
battery backup into the battery power
supplied outlets. Plug the other peripheral
equipment (ie. printer, scanner, speakers,
etc.) into the full time surge protection
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 one of the UPS OUT
jacks to the modem port
on the computer. The other
UPS OUT jack can be used
to protect 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. Press the power switch to turn the unit on.
The Power On indicator light will illuminate
green and the unit will "beep" once.
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 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.
9. Ensure the wall outlet and UPS are located
near the equipment being attached for
proper accessibility.
