Quick Startup
1
If your SOLA 325 UPS has a removable power cord, connect the power cord to the back of
the unit. Plug the UPS into a wall outlet. Even if the UPS is turned off, the battery charger
will operate when input power is applied to the UPS.
2
Let the unit charge the battery for at least 8 hours. You may use the unit while the battery
charges, but the battery backup runtime will be reduced until the battery is fully charged.
3
Note: The On/Off button must be pressed and held for about one second to turn the SOLA
325 unit on or off. To start the unit, press and hold the On/Off button (the bottom button on
the front panel). When the unit starts, it will beep, then light all of the front panel lights for a
moment, and then light them one at a time. Next, the UPS will do a battery test. While it
does this test, the battery light , and other lights are on that indicate the amount of charge in
the battery. After the battery test, the top green light should remain on.
If the unit beeps, or if the top light does not remain on even though input power is available
from the wall outlet, go to the Troubleshooting section.

Switch off the equipment you want to protect, and plug it into the outlets on the back of the
SOLA 325.
5
Switch on the protected equipment, one at a time. If the UPS beeps an alarm when you start
your equipment, the UPS may be overloaded. See the Troubleshooting section.
The bottom four lights on the front of the UPS show the % of the UPS’s power that your
equipment is using. See Symbols, LEDs and Audible Alarms Section for more information.

The Surge Protection jacks will protect network equipment that uses
an RJ-45 connection. Plug the 10BASE-T network connection into the
surge protection jack labeled “IN” on the back of the SOLA 325. Plug
the protected equipment into the surge protection jack labeled “OUT.”
Network cabling is not provided. This connection is optional. It is not
needed to use the SOLA 325.
