Flashlight Controls and Functionality

The LED flashlight will automatically turn on in the following conditions:

—when the LED flashlight is on the Unit recharging dock and

•the AC power is removed;

•the LED flashlight is removed from the dock;

•the LED flashlight button is pressed.

—when the LED flashlight is removed from the Unit recharging dock and

•the LED flashlight button is pressed

To turn off the LED flashlight when the light is ON in any condition:

• press the LED flashlight button.

NOTE:

•We ship the LED flashlight without the batteries installed. Carefully install the batteries ensuring proper polarity, which is labeled on the LED flashlight housing. After installing the UPS and turning it on, charge the LED flashlight for at least 8 hours prior to use.

•During the initial charge period, the LED flashlight may not function properly due to low battery charge.

NOTE: For maximum benefit, install the Unit in an easily accessible location so you may detach the flashlight for use. Do not place anything on top of the Unit that may obscure the control panel or flashlight.

A. Connect to AC Utility Power

Plug in the AC cord to a properly grounded wall outlet. Please make sure there are no devices plugged into the Unit.

B. Charging the Battery

For best results, charge the battery for eight hours prior to initial use. The Unit charges its battery whenever it is connected to the utility power.

C. Plug in Power Devices

Plug your devices into the AC outlets on the top of the Unit. To use the Unit 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 along with other computer equipment. A laser printer or scanner draws significantly more power when in use than when idle. This may overload the Unit.

D. Turning on the Unit

Turn on your Battery Backup by pressing and holding the “On/Off” button for longer than two seconds until the “AC Power” green light comes on. The Unit will beep once.

E. Turning off the Unit

Turn off your Battery Backup by pressing and holding the “On/Off” button for more than two seconds until the “AC Power” or “Battery Power” LED goes off. The Unit will beep once.

F. To Conduct a Self-Test

Use the self-test to verify both the operation of the Unit and the condition of the battery. In normal utility power, push the “On/Off” button for less than 1.5 seconds and the Unit will perform a self-test function. During the self-test, the Unit operates in backup mode.

NOTE: During the self-test, the Unit briefly operates on battery-backup power (the “Battery Power” LED comes on). If the Unit passes the self-test, it returns to online operation. If the Unit fails the self-test, it immediately returns to online operation and lights the “Replace Battery” LED. The loads are not affected. Recharge the battery overnight and perform the self-test again.

If the “Replace Battery” LED is still on, the battery needs to be replaced.

G. To Silence Audible Alarm

While the Unit is in battery-backup mode, push the “On/Off” button for less than 1.5 seconds to silence the audible alarm. (This does not work if the Unit is in a LOW BATTERY or OVERLOAD condition.)

All equipment must be powered off prior to plugging into the Unit (installation).
