INSTALLING YOUR UPS SYSTEM

INTRODUCTION
This UPS meets the Energy Efficiency Certification of the California Energy Commission (CEC). CyberPower Systems is dedicated to producing energy efficient products to maximize our contribution to the environment.

UNPACKING
Inspect the UPS upon receipt. The box should contain the following:

1. UPS unit
2. User's manual
3. USB device cable (except for SE425G)

*PowerPanel® Personal Edition software is available on our website. Please visit www.cpsww.com and go to the Software Section for free download.

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. 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 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 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 (eg. 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" twice.
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.

BASIC OPERATION

DESCRIPTION

1. Battery and Surge Protected Outlets
   The unit has four battery powered and surge protected 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.
2. Full-Time Surge Protection Outlets
   The unit has four surge suppression outlets.
3. Power Switch
   To turn the UPS on, press the power button for approximately 2 seconds - you will hear a constant tone (1 second) - 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 (1 second) - and release after two short beeps.
   Alarm setting: 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 reaches a low battery state.
4. Power On Indicator
   This LED is illuminated when the utility power is normal and the UPS outlets are providing power, free of surges and spikes.
5. Electrical Wiring Fault Indicator
   This LED indicator will illuminate to warn the user that a wiring problem exists, such as bad ground, missing ground or reversed wiring. If this is illuminated, disconnect all electrical equipment from the outlet and have an electrician verify the outlet is properly wired. The unit will not provide surge protection without being plugged into a grounded and properly wired wall outlet.
6. Communication Protection Ports
   Communication protection ports will protect any standard modem, fax, or telephone line. (RJ11)
7. Circuit Breaker
   Located on the side of the UPS, the circuit breaker provides overload and fault protection.
8. USB Port to PC (except for SE425G)
   The port allows connection and communication between the USB port on the computer and the UPS unit. The UPS communicates its status to the PowerPanel^® Personal Edition software.
9. Outlets Designed for AC Adapters
   The UPS unit has four widely-spaced outlets, so AC power adapters can be plugged into the UPS without overlapping or blocking adjacent outlets.

DEFINITIONS FOR LED INDICATORS & AUDIBLE ALARMS

Power ON	Wiring Fault	Alarm	CONDITION
On	Off	Off	Normal
On*	Off	Beep twice every 30 seconds	Utility Failure- The UPS is providing power to battery power-supplied outlets from its battery.
On*	Off	Rapid Beeping every 1/2 second	Utility Failure- The UPS is providing battery power. Rapid beeping indicates the unit will run out of power shortly.
Off	Off	Constant tone	Battery Overload - Occurs when connected equipment exceeds the listed capacity of the UPS. Turn the UPS off, unplug at least one piece of equipment from battery outlets, wait 10 seconds, reset the circuit breaker and turn the unit on.
On/Off	On	None	Electrical Wiring Fault - This indicates a wiring problem with the AC outlet such as bad ground, missing ground, or reversed wiring. Disconnect all electrical equipment from the outlet and have an electrician check the outlet to ensure proper wiring.
Off	Off	Constant tone	Utility Failure- The frequency is beyond 47-63Hz. The UPS will not turn on in Line Mode.

* When it beeps, the power on LED will flash accordingly.

IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS

(SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)
This manual contains important safety instructions. Please read and follow all instructions carefully during installation and operation of the unit.
Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to unpack, install, or operate your UPS.

To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install in a temperature and humidity controlled indoor area free of conductive contaminants. (Please see specifications for acceptable temperature and humidity range).

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside.

Hazardous live parts inside can be energized by the battery even when the AC input power is disconnected.

The UPS must be connected to an AC power outlet with fuse or circuit breaker protection. Do not plug into an outlet that is not grounded. If you need to de-energize this equipment, turn off and unplug the unit.

To avoid electric shock, turn off the unit and unplug it from the AC power source before installing a computer component.

Not for use in a computer room as defined in the Standard for the Protection of Electronic Computer/Data Processing Equipment, ANSI/NFPA 75.

To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided with 20 amperes maximum branch circuit over current protection in accordance with the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
DO NOT USE FOR MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT! CyberPower Systems does not sell products for life support or medical applications. DO NOT use in any circumstance that would affect operation and safety of life support equipment, any medical applications or patient care.
