500-3000 VA models ship with the internal battery installed. Locate the plastic bezel from the
shipping box and attach the bezel to the UPS taking care to align the fastening clips on both ends before inserting them
into the holes.
If your application requires the use of external battery cabinets for longer back up time requirements, connect the first
battery cabinet to the UPS with the cable provided with the battery cabinet.
Note: it does not matter which connector is
used on the battery cabinet
. If more than one battery cabinet is used the additional cabinets then connect to the adjoining
battery cabinet.
To complete the installation of the UPS, simply connect the input plug on the attached 10 foot input cord to the proper wall
receptacle per the following table.
Note: the 500-2000VA UPS models will now have power and the AC Input indicator on
the display should illuminate. The UPS will also begin to charge the internal batteries at this point, so there will also be
battery capacity LEDs illuminated.

Press and hold for about 4 seconds, the “ON” button on the UPS display.
Note: this will apply power to the output
receptacles via the internal bypass and the bypass indicator will be illuminated along with an audible beep

transfer the connected equipment to the inverter power. Once that is complete, the bypass indicator will turn off
and the inverter indicator will illuminate.
The UPS is now running in normal operation mode providing protected, filtered power to the connected equipment.
