1. Getting to Know Your Fortress
Make sure you have the following:
❑
Fortress UPS
❑
One or More Equipment Cords
❑
AS/400 Interface Cable
will help you identify your model.
If the UPS package or the UPS has been visibly damaged when you receive it, have
your carrier sign a delivery receipt noting the visible damage; then, see
IBM Service Support. When you contact service support, reference machine type
“UPS.” If you plan to store the UPS, follow these guidelines:
•Charge the batteries right away.
When you first unpack the UPS, plug it in and press to start the UPS. (As it
starts, the display will show “On.”) Leave the UPS on for 24 hours to charge the
batteries completely. Shut down the UPS by pressing and holding the key; then,
unplug the UPS and store it.
•Check the temperature.
Store the UPS between 0° and 40° Celsius (32° and 104° Fahrenheit). If you store
the UPS above 25° Celsius (77° Fahrenheit), battery life will be shorter.
•Recharge the batteries.
Every six months, charge the batteries again. If you store the UPS at temperatures
above 25° Celsius (77° Fahrenheit), charge the batteries more often.
