Battery-Backup Outlets (Fig. 1)
Only data-sensitive equipment such as a
computer, monitor, and external drive should
be plugged into these outlets. Battery power
is automatically provided in case of a power
outage. Power (AC or battery) is not supplied to
these outlets when the Unit is switched off. (Do
not plug surge protectors or power strips into
the battery-backup outlets.)
Caution: Never connect a laser printer or
scanner to the backup outlets along with
other computer equipment. To do so might
overload the Unit.

does not control these outlets.
Do not plug surge protectors or power
strips into the battery-backup outlets
(i.e., daisy-chaining).
