g
The RS232 port is a plug-in interface port (9-pin, Sub-D, male) which enables advanced communication
between the UPS and the computer. Use UPS software for unattended operation of workstations, power
quality related data logging, shutdown notification and control, auto-restart, diagnostics, and battery
conservation features.
We strongly recommend to use only original GE Digital Energy software in combination with the RS232
interface port.

Batteries
5.3.1
General
The service life of the battery is up to 6 years.
As a healthy battery is critical to the UPS, keypad 'ON/TEST' allows a battery test. When the condition of
the battery is critical, a
'replace battery'
alarm will be generated (see 3.3). Charge the batteries for at least
10 hours, switch the UPS off and back on, and perform a self-test. If the alarm persists replace the
batteries as soon as possible.
