Start the UPS

1.Plug the UPS into a two-pole, three-wire, grounded receptacle only. Avoid using extension cords. The power cord is attached to the UPS. The input plug is a NEMA 5-15P.

2.Check the site wiring fault LED located on the rear panel. It will be illuminated if the UPS is plugged into an improperly wired utility power outlet (see Troubleshooting).

3.Turn on all connected equipment. To use the UPS as a master on/off switch, be sure all con- nected equipment is on.

4.Press the button on the front panel to power the UPS.

Note: The battery charges fully during the first four hours of normal operation. Do not expect full battery run capability during this initial charge period. Refer to www.apc.com for on battery runtimes.

5.For optimal computer system protection, install PowerChute Business Edition management soft- ware to fully configure UPS shutdown and alarm settings.
