Back Up (Slow Alarm)
When in “BACK UP” on battery mode, the RED LED illuminates and the
UPS sounds an audible alarm. The alarm stops when the UPS returns to
LINE NORMAL operation.
Low Battery (Rapid Alarm)
In “BACK UP” mode, when the battery energy runs low, the UPS beeps
rapidly until the UPS shuts from a depleted battery or returns to LINE
NORMAL operation.
Fault (10 Seconds Continuously)
When the output is shorted, the UPS emits a 10 seconds continuously
alarm to warn of a short condition. Disconnect the equipment prior to
checking the equipment.

1.
UPS Outlets (See #1 on Diagram 1)
These outlets are your battery back up outlets. We strongly
recommend that only sensitive equipment such as your computer and
monitor should be plugged into these outlets.
Caution: Never
connect a laser printer or scanner to the backup outlets of UPS
with other computer equipment. A laser printer or scanner
draws significantly more power when in use than when sitting
idle. This may overload the UPS.
Should a power outage occur, your battery backup would
automatically turn on. Power (utility or battery) is not supplied to these
outlets when the UPS is switched off.
Do not plug any surge protectors or power strips into the battery
back-up outlets (i.e. daisy chaining).
2.
SURGE Protected outlets (See #2 on Diagram 1)
These outlets do not provide power during a power outage.
Equipment such as computer peripherals, printers, fax machine’s, or
a desk lamp may be plugged into these outlets. The On/Off button
does not control these outlets.
3.
The On/Off button has 3 functions:
1. Turns on the UPS. Depress button at least 2
seconds. The green light will come on.
2. Cold Start function. Assuming the battery is
charged the UPS will work without it being
plugged into an outlet. Depress and hold the key
for at least 2 seconds to turn on the UPS. The
3. Silence function. During “On Battery Mode”, the
audible sound can be turned “ON” or “OFF” by
depressing the switch.

Phone/ Fax/ Modem Surge Protection (See #2 on Diagram 2)
The Phone/ Fax/Modem lines are surge protected. There is one input
jack and two output jacks. This allows you to split one telephone
connection to two separate devices.
6. AC Breaker (Circuit Breaker; See #3 on Diagram 2)
Should a power overload occur, the circuit breaker would trigger the
UPS to turn off AC power. In order to restore the power, depress the
circuit breaker button to reset, then depress the Power button.

Your UPS features a USB communication port. Installation of the
cable and software is optional. This allows the UPS to connect to you
computer. The Sentry Bulldog Software will not work if the UPS is not
connected to you computer. This does not mean the battery backup
feature will not work without the software and cable installed. The
UPS will still provide backup power but you will be unable to utilize
the data management capabilities of the software.
INSTALLATION
Note!
Before installation, please inspect the UPS Upon
receipt. Make sure that everything inside the package
is not damaged.
Connect to AC Utility Power
Connect the AC inlet to utility power via the power
cord. Please make sure there are no devices
plugged into the UPS unit. Check to see if the “Site
Wiring Fault” indicator is lit or not. If it is lit, please
have the utility wiring inspected by an electrician.
Charging the Battery
For best results, charge the battery for 6 hours prior
to initial use. The UPS charges its battery whenever
it is connected to the utility power. Should you see
the red battery light come on, the battery may need
immediate charging.
Turning on the UPS
Turn on your UPS by depressing the On/Off button for
approximately 2 seconds. You will see the green indicator light come
on.
Plug in Power Devices
Plug your devices into the AC outlets on the top of the UPS. To use
the UPS as a master on/off switch, make sure all of the loads are
switched on.
Caution: Never connect a laser printer or
scanner to the backup outlets of UPS with
other computer equipment. A laser printer or
scanner draws significantly more power
when in use than when idles. This may
overload the UPS.
Connect the phone/ fax/ modem lines
Connect a single phone / fax/ modem line into the surge protected
sockets on the right of the UPS. The RJ-11 modular sockets accept
standard single line telephone connections.
Plug one end of the phone cable you received into your telephone
wall jack and plug the other end into the jack marked IN. You may
now plug a phone, fax or modem into the two jacks marked OUT.

Note:
This connection is optional but highly suggested as phone /
fax / modem lines often carry dangerous surges and spikes. The
UPS works properly without a phone / fax/ modem connection.
Caution: The phone/fax/modem protection feature could be
rendered inoperable if improperly installed. Make sure that the
telephone line from the wall is plugged into the connector marked
“IN”, and the devices to be protected (phone/ fax/ modem) are plugged
into the connector marked “ OUT”.
