UPS Features
The PowerRite XT provides protection against power problems, including power outages,
brownouts, and surges. It also provides spike suppression and line noise filtering to protect your
equipment. Use the drawings below to identify features of the unit.
Start Up
1
Your PowerRite XT has a removable power cord. Connect the power cord to the back of the unit.
Plug the UPS into a wall outlet.
2
Let the unit charge the battery for at least 3 hours. You may use the unit while the battery charges,
but the battery backup runtime will be reduced until the battery is fully charged. This will take up
to 8 hours after a full discharge while the PowerRite XT is fully loaded.
3
To start the unit, press the On/Off switch (located in the centre of the front panel). When the unit
starts, it will beep and light the front panel LED. The green light should remain on. This indicates
normal operation.
4
Switch off the equipment you want to protect with battery backup and plug it into the outlets on the
rear of the PowerRite XT. This equipment will continue to operate from the battery when the input
line fails.
5
Switch on the protected equipment, one piece at a time. If the UPS beeps an alarm when you start
your equipment, the UPS may be overloaded. See the Troubleshooting section.
6
The PowerRite XT UPS is equipped with D.C. Start. To start the UPS when AC power is not
available, simply press the power switch.
