appliances, etc.).
l
UPS
can be installed in
horizontal, vertical position, or
placed in Rack 2U (optional kit).
UPS connections
l
Connect the
UPS
1
to the
AC-power system via a wall outlet
with an earth connector, using the
supplied cord
4
for a UPS with
FR/DIN sockets or with the supply
cord of your computer for a UPS
with IEC sockets
(see figure A).
l
Plug critical equipment
(computer, monitor, modem,
etc.) into the outlets
9
providing
battery backup power and surge
protection (see figure B), taking
care not to exceed the rated current
indicated in amperes.
l
Other devices (printer, scanner,
fax, etc.) can be connect to the
filtered outlets
8
that provide
surge protection (see figure B). The
filtered outlets are not backed up
by battery power in the event of a
power outage.
l
Optional Internet modem /
Network connection:
A modem or Ethernet data line
can be protected against surges by
connecting it via the
UPS
. Connect
the existing device cable between
the wall outlet and the
UPS
, and
use a similar cable between the
UPS
and the device, as indicated in
figure C (cable not supplied).
l
Optional USB connection:
The
UPS
device can be connected

Master and EcoControl
outlets operating
procedure
In order to limit energy
consumption of peripherals
(scanner, printer) in standby mode,
the
Ellipse ECO
is equipped
with
EcoControl
outlets that are
dependent on the
Master
outlet.
When the main application
supplied by the
Master
outlet
(computer) is shut down,
the
EcoControl
outlets are
autonomy after it has been charged
for 8 hours. It is recommended that
the
UPS
be permanently connected
to the AC power supply to ensure
the best possible autonomy.
l
Switching-on the UPS
: press
button
12
for about 1 second.
l
Filtered outlets
8
without
battery backup:
Equipment
connected to these outlets is
supplied as soon as the AC cord
4
is plugged in. They are not affected
by button
12
.
l
Battery backup outlets
9 :
Equipment connected to these
outlets is supplied as soon as
button
12
turns green (see figure
E). These outlets can be turned on
even if the
UPS
is not connected to
AC power (button
12
flashes).
l
AC-power disturbance:
If AC
power is disturbed or fails, the
UPS
continues to operate on battery
power. Button
12
flashes green.
In normal mode, the audio alarm
beeps every ten seconds, then
every three seconds when the end
of battery backup time is near. In
silent mode (see the section on
settings), the audio alarm simply
beeps once when the
UPS
transfers
to battery power.
l
If the power outage lasts longer
than the battery backup time, the
UPS
shuts down and automatically
restarts when power is restored.
Following a complete discharge, a
few hours are required to recharge
the battery back to full backup time.
l
To save battery power, it is possible
to press button
12
to cut the supply
of power to the devices connected
to the battery backup outlets.
l
Lightning protection:
All outlets,
whether backed up or simply
filtered, include surge protection,
whatever the position of button
12
.
l
Shutdown of the battery backup
outlets
9 :
Press button
12
for
more than two seconds.

automatically deactivated and the
peripherals shut down.
This function (deactivated by
default) is validated and configured
using the configuration tool
integrated in the software.
Note:
When the function is
activated, do not connect critical
applications to
EcoControl
outlets.
Threshold setup
A default setup ensures the correct
operation of the
EcoControl
function. However, depending
on the consumption of the main
load, the trigger threshold of
the
EcoControl
function may
have to be modified using the
configuration software supplied
with the
UPS
:
l
First, make sure that the function
is activated in the "
EcoControl
Function" tab of the configuration
tool.
l
If the peripherals connected
to the
EcoControl
outlets do not
switch off when the main load is
not in normal operation (ex: when
in standby mode), the detection
threshold value must be set to
High
.
l
If the rated consumption level
of the main load is low and the
EcoControl
outlets shut down
when the main load is operating
normally, the detection threshold
value must be set to
Low
.
