HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt. However, recharging the battery for at least 8 hours is recommended to ensure that
the battery’s maximum charge capacity
is achieved. A loss of charge may occur during shipping and storage. To recharge the battery plug the unit into an AC outlet.
2. With the UPS unit off and unplugged, connect your computer, monitor, and any other peripherals requiring battery backup into the battery power supplied outlets. Plug your other
peripheral equipment (printer, scanner, speakers) into the full-time surge protection outlets. DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper shredder, copier, space heater, vacuum, sump pump
or other large electrical device into battery and surge protected outlets. The power demands of these devices will overload and possibly damage the unit.
3. To protect a network connection from surges, connect a network cable into the IN jack of the UPS. Then connect a network cable from the OUT jack on the UPS to the
network device.
4. Plug the UPS into a 2 pole, 3 wire grounding receptacle (wall outlet). Make sure the wall branch outlet is protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with
large electrical demands (e.g. air conditioner, refrigerator, copier, etc.). The warranty prohibits the use of extension cords, outlet strips, and surge strips.
5. Press the Power Switch to turn the unit on. The indicator light will illuminate and the unit will “beep”.
6. If an overload is detected, an audible alarm will sound and the unit will emit one long beep. To correct this, turn the UPS off and unplug at least one piece of equipment from the
battery power supplied outlets. Make sure the circuit breaker is depressed and then turn the UPS on.
7. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times.
8. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully charged. While in storage recharge the battery every
three months to ensure battery life.
BASIC OPERATION
1. Battery and Surge Protected Outlets: The unit has four battery powered/surge suppression outlets for connected equipment to ensure temporary uninterrupted operation of your
equipment during a power failure.( DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper shredder, copier, space heater, vacuum, sump pump or other large electrical device into battery and surge
protected outlets. The power demands of these devices will overload and possibly damage the unit.)
2. Full-Time Surge Protection Outlets: The unit has four surge suppression outlets which are always on
3. Power Switch: Press the power button to turn the UPS ON or OFF.
4. Power On Indicator: This LED is illuminated when the utility power is normal and the UPS outlets are
providing power, free of surges and spikes.
5. Electrical Wiring Fault Indicator: This LED indicator will illuminate to warn the user that a wiring problem
exists, such as bad ground, missing ground or reversed wiring. If this is illuminated, it is recommended
to disconnect all electrical equipment from the outlet and have an electrician verify the outlet is properly
wired. The unit will not provide surge protection without being plugged into a grounded and properly
wired wall outlet.
6. Communication Protection Ports: Communication protection ports will protect any standard modem, fax,
telephone line, network or Ethernet connection (RJ11/RJ45).
7. Circuit Breaker: Located on the side of the UPS, the circuit breaker serves to provide overload and
fault protection.
8. USB Port: Allows for connection and communication between the USB port
on the computer and the UPS
unit. The UPS communicates its status to the PowerPanel
®
Personal Edition software. This interface is
also compatible with the Power Management provided by Windows
®
Vista. Note: To install PowerPanel®
Personal Edition Software the computer will need Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher installed.
9. Outlets Designed for AC Adapters: The unit has four outlets spaced to allow AC power transfomers to be
plugged into the UPS without blocking adjacent outlets.
10. Coax/Cable/DSS Surge Protection: The Coax/Cable/DSS surge protection ports
will protect any cable
modem, CATV converter, or DSS receiver.
11. LCD Module Display: Crystal Blue intelligent LCD panel shows all the UPS information using icons
and messages. For more information please check the “Definitions for Illumination LCD Indicators”
section below.
12. LCD Panel Toggle Switch: The switch can be used to select the LCD panel displayed information
including Input Voltage, Output Voltage and Estimated Run Time. The toggle frequency is set to one
time per second. Holding the switch for more than two seconds while running on battery will silence
the buzzer.

• INPUT voltage meter: This meter measures the AC voltage that
the UPS system is receiving from the utility wall outlet. The UPS
is designed to continuously supply connected equipment with
stable, 110/120 output voltage. In the event of a complete power
loss, severe brownout, or over-voltage, the UPS relies on its internal
battery to supply consistent 110/120 output voltage. The INPUT
voltage meter can be used as a diagnostic tool to identify
poor-quality input power.
• OUTPUT voltage meter: This meter measures, in real time, the
AC voltage that the UPS system is providing to the computer during
normal line mode, and battery backup mode.
• ESTIMATE RUN TIME: This displays the run time estimate of the
UPS with the current battery capacity and load.
• BATTERY icon: During a severe brownout or blackout, this
icon appears and an alarm sounds (two short beeps followed
by a pause) to indicate the UPS is operating from its internal
batteries. During a prolonged brownout or blackout, the alarm will
sound continuously. The BATTERY CAPACITY meter will show
one
20% capacity segment remaining to indicate the UPS’s
batteries are nearly out of power. You should save files and turn
off your equipment immediately.
• OVER LOAD icon: This icon appears and an alarm sounds to
indicate the battery-supplied outlets are overloaded. To clear the
overload, unplug some of your equipment from the battery-supplied
outlets until the icon turns off and the alarm stops.
• BATTERY CAPACITY meter: This meter displays the approximate
charge level, in 20% increments, of the UPS’s internal battery.
During a blackout or severe brownout, the UPS switches to battery
power, the BATTERY icon appears, and the charge level decreases.
• LOAD CAPACITY meter: This meter displays the approximate
output load level, in 20% increments, of the UPS’s battery outlets.
