Configuring the UPS for an extended battery module
If the UPS is not configured for the extended battery module, the UPS reports less
battery time remaining on the UPS front panel and to any remote software. You
might receive a shutdown warning prematurely.
Conversely, if the UPS is configured for the extended battery module but the
extended battery module is not connected to the UPS, the UPS reports more
battery time remaining, and it might shut down before it issues a warning.
Note: The default configuration is to issue an alarm when the batteries reach their
lowest limit, which enables an orderly shutdown.

menu, and press the OK button.
