Warranty registration card
HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR EQUIPMENT
1. Make sure that the total Volt-Amp (VA) requirements of your computer, monitor and peripheral equipments does not exceed
rated VA as spec.
2. Ensure that the equipment plugged into the four battery power-supplied outlets does not exceed the UPS unit's rated capacity
. If rated unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition may occur and cause the UPS unit to shut down or the circuit
breaker to trip.
3. If the power requirements of your equipment are listed in units other than Volt-Amps (VA), convert Watts (W) or Amps (A) into
VA by doing the calculations below. Note: The below equation only calculates the maximum amount of VA that the equipment
can use, not what is typically used by the equipment at any one time. Users should expect actual usage values to be
approximately 60% of the calculated values.
Watts (W) x 1.67 = VA or
Add the totals up for all pieces of equipment and multiply this total by 0.6 to calculate actual power requirements.
There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your computer system will require. The total load that you will
be placing on the battery-powered outlets should not exceed 80% of the unit's capacity.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt. However, recharging
the battery for at least 16 hours is recommended to ensure that the battery's
maximum charge capacity is achieved. A loss of charge may occur during
shipping and storage. To recharge the battery, simply leave the unit plugged
into an AC outlet. The unit will charge in both the ON as well as the OFF
position. If you wish to use the software, use the enclosed USB devices cable
to connect the UPS to your computer. If you are not going to use the
software, you do not need to connect the cable.
2. With the UPS unit turned off and unplugged, connect your computer, monitor and any externally powered data storage device
(Zip drive, Jazz drive, Tape drive, etc ) into the battery power supplied outlets. Plug your peripheral equipment (printer,
scanner, speakers) into the full-time surge protection outlets. DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper shredder, copier, space
heater, vacuum or other large electrical device into the UPS. The power demands of these devices will overload and
possibly damage the unit.
3. To protect a fax, phone or modem, connect a telephone cable from the wall jack outlet to the "in" jack of the UPS. Connect a
telephone cable from the "out" jack with the CPU icon to the modem port on your computer. The "out" jack with the telephone
icon can be used to protect a telephone or fax machine.
4. Plug the UPS into a 2 pole, 3 wire grounding 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. refrigerator, copier, etc ). The warranty
prohibits the use of extension cords, outlet strips, and surge strips.
5. Press the power switch to turn the unit on. The power on indicator light will illuminate 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. Wait 10 seconds. Make sure the circuit
breaker is depressed and then turn the UPS on.
7. Your UPS is equipped with an auto-charge feature. When the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet, the battery will automatically
recharge.
8. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times.
9. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully charged. While in storage recharge the
battery every three months to insure battery life.

DEFINITIONS FOR ILLUMINATED LCD INDICATORS
INPUT voltage meter: This meter measures the AC voltage that the UPS system
is receiving from the utility wall outlet. The UPS is designed, through the use of
automatic voltage regulation, to continuously supply connected equipment with
stable, 110/120 output voltage. In the event of a complete power loss, severe
brownout, or over-voltage, the UPS relies on its internal battery to supply
consistent 110/120 output voltage. The INPUT voltage meter can be used as a
diagnostic tool to identify poor-quality input power.
OUTPUT voltage meter: This meter measures, in real time, the AC voltage that
the UPS system is providing to the computer, such as normal line mode, and

NORMAL icon: This icon appears when the UPS is working under normal conditions.
BATTERY icon: During a severe brownout or blackout, this icon appears and an alarm sounds (two short beeps followed by a
pause) to indicate the UPS is operating from its internal batteries. During a prolonged brownout or blackout, the alarm will sound
continuously (and the BATT.CAPACITY meter shows one 20% capacity segment shaded) to indicate the UPS's batteries are
nearly out of power. You should save files and turm off your equipment immediately.
OVER LOAD icon: This icon appears and an alarm sounds to indicate the battery-supplied outlets are overloaded. To clear the
overload, unplug some of your equipment from the battery-supplied outlets until the icon turns off and the alarm stops.
BATT. CAPACITY meter: This meter displays the approximate charge level (in 20% increments) of the UPS?s internal battery.
During a blackout or severe brownout, the UPS switches to battery power, the BATTERY icon appears, and the charge level
decreases.
LOAD CAPACITY meter: This meter displays the approximate output load level (in 20% increments) of the UPS?s battery
outlets.
