Modem/Fax Surge Suppression
Using telephone cords, connect your wall jack to
the UPS jack marked “LINE” (or “IN”) and your
equipment to the UPS jack marked “EQUIP” (or
“OUT”). This will protect your equipment from
surges over a telephone line, but you should make
sure that your equipment is also protected against
surges on the AC line.

Use any USB cable to connect the USB port of
your computer to the USB port of your UPS.
Download the PowerAlert UPS monitoring
