This LED illuminates to indicate the UPS is compensating for a high utility voltage.

This LED illuminates to indicate the UPS is compensating for a low utility voltage.

When the on battery power LED is lit the UPS is supplying battery power to the connected equipment. When on battery, the UPS sounds an alarm—four beeps every 30 seconds.

The LED illuminates and the UPS emits a sustained alarm tone when an overload condition occurs.

Failure of a battery self-test causes the UPS to emit short beeps for one minute and the replace battery LED illuminates. Refer to Troubleshooting in this manual.

The replace battery LED flashes and short beep is emitted every two seconds to indicate the battery is disconnected.

The UPS performs a self-test automatically when turned on, and every two weeks thereafter (by default).

During the self-test, the UPS briefly operates the connected equipment on battery.

If the UPS fails the self-test, the replace battery LED lights and immediately returns to online operation. The connected equipment is not affected by a failed test. Recharge the battery for 24 hours and per- form another self-test. If it fails, the battery must be replaced.

Press and hold the button for a few seconds to initiate the self-test.

On Battery Operation

The Smart-UPS switches to battery operation automatically if the utility power fails. While running on battery, an alarm beeps four times every 30 seconds.

Press the button (front panel) to silence the UPS alarm (for the current alarm only). If the utility power does not return, the UPS continues to supply power to the connected equipment until the bat- tery is exhausted.

If PowerChute is not being used you must manually save your files and power down before the UPS turns off.

DETERMINING ON BATTERY RUN TIME

UPS battery life differs based on usage and environment. It is recommended that the battery/batteries be changed once every three years. See the APC web site, www.apc.com, for on battery run times.

1000, 750VA specifications

American Power Conversion (APC) is a leading name in the field of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), offering a range of products designed to ensure power reliability for various applications. Among its notable models are the APC 1000, 1050, 1100, and 1400 VA units. Each of these models comes packed with features and technologies aimed at protecting sensitive electronic equipment from power disruptions.

The APC 1000 VA model is designed to cater to small server rooms, workstations, and point-of-sale systems. With a capacity of 1000 VA, this model can support several devices simultaneously, providing robust battery backup and surge protection. Its Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) helps maintain a consistent voltage level, safeguarding connected equipment from overvoltages and undervoltages. The unit is equipped with an LCD interface that displays real-time data regarding battery status, load levels, and estimated runtime.

The APC 1050 VA is a slightly upgraded version that offers a higher power capacity suitable for more demanding applications. This unit features advanced battery management technology, enhancing battery performance and prolonging its lifespan. With an extended runtime capability, the APC 1050 is ideal for critical systems that require longer power backup in case of outages. The hot-swappable batteries allow for easy maintenance without interrupting the power supply.

Moving up the range, the APC 1100 VA model provides additional features like built-in PowerChute software, which allows users to manage UPS settings and safely shut down systems during prolonged outages. This model is renowned for its compact design and energy efficiency, making it an excellent choice for both home office setups and small business environments.

Lastly, the APC 1400 VA model offers robust performance tailored for larger systems or more extensive networks. It comes with additional outlets and improved power distribution options, ensuring that multiple high-draw devices can be supported at once. This model is particularly beneficial for IT environments where equipment uptime is paramount.

In summary, APC’s 1000, 1050, 1100, and 1400 VA UPS models are engineered with advanced technologies such as AVR, enhanced battery management, and comprehensive monitoring systems. These features help provide reliable power protection and performance, making them essential components for anyone looking to safeguard their electronic investments against power fluctuations and outages.
