Turn On the Back-UPS

Press the Power ON button located on the top of the Back-UPS. The Power On/Replace Battery LED will illuminate green and a single short beep will be audible to indicate that the Back-UPS is providing protection for connected equipment.

The Back-UPS battery charges fully during the first 16 hours while connected to utility power. The Back-UPS battery will charge while the Back-UPS is switched on or off and is connected to utility power. Do not expect full battery run capability during the initial charge time.

If the red Building Wiring Fault LED located on the side of the Back-UPS illuminates, do not operate the Back-UPS. Have a qualified electrician correct the building wiring fault.

Operation

Energy Saving Master and Controlled by Master Outlets

When this feature is enabled, a device plugged into the MASTER outlet will act as the master on/off switch for devices plugged into the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets. Turn off or place in Standby mode the device plugged into the MASTER outlet and automatically all devices plugged into the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets will turn off. When the device plugged into the MASTER outlet is turned on or is taken out of standby mode, all devices plugged into the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets will automatically turn on.

Press and hold the Enable Master button for one second to enable or disable the feature. The Enable Master LED will illuminate green when the feature is enabled. There is no LED illumination when the feature is disabled.

Program the Threshold Settings

Some computers consume so much power that the MASTER outlet does not recognize the reduced power level of standby mode. In this case the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets will not shut off power to connected devices. When this occurs the threshold setting should be adjusted. Before adjusting the threshold setting verify that the Enable Master LED is illuminated green.

If the devices connected to the CONTROLLED BY MASTER outlets do not shut down when the MASTER device goes into Standby mode, increase the threshold setting to high.

To change the threshold setting:

1.Plug the Back-UPS into a wall outlet. Do Not turn on the Back-UPS. The Back-UPS will be in Standby mode and no LEDs will be illuminated.

2.Press and hold the ENABLE MASTER button for 10 seconds, after which all the LEDs will flash. The Back-UPS is now in Threshold Program mode.

3.Release the ENABLE MASTER button and the LEDs that remain illuminated indicate the current threshold setting.

4.Press the ENABLE MASTER button to change the threshold setting.

Refer to the table below for threshold settings.
