TURNING ON THE UPS

Make sure the battery is connected before turning on the UPS! Then, press the button on the front panel to power up your UPS. This will power up connected equipment. (Make sure connected loads are switched to their ON position).

The UPS charges its battery when it is connected to utility power. The battery charges fully during the first four hours of normal operation. Do not expect full run time during this initial charge period.

The unit performs a self-test automatically when turned on and every two weeks thereafter (by de- fault). Refer to details below on changing the default interval.

120V Models: Check the site wiring fault indicator (located on the rear panel, see Rear Panel, be- low). It lights up if the UPS is plugged into an improperly wired AC power outlet. Wiring faults de- tected include missing ground, hot-neutral polarity reversal, and overloaded neutral circuit.

If the UPS indicates a site wiring fault, get a qualified electrician to correct the building wiring.

This UPS is equipped with an accessory slot. See the APC website, www.apc.com, for available ac- cessories.

If a standard accessory (such as an SNMP card) is installed on this UPS, see the Utility CD for user documentation.

For additional computer system security, install PowerChutePlus® Smart-UPS monitoring software. It provides automatic unattended shutdown capabilities on most major network operating systems.
