Files that have previously been saved will be saved in their original location.
PowerPanel™ is equipped with a
Scheduled Shutdown
feature which can automatically save and close open files
and then shutdown the computer and UPS at a user specified date and time. Use of this feature is optional and is
not required for the power failure shutdown to occur.
The use of the PowerPanel™ software is optional. The UPS unit will provide full surge suppression and battery
backup without the software. You must use the software if you wish to have the automatic shutdown feature.
