Battery Backup and Surge Protected outlets

When the Back-UPS is receiving input power, the Battery Backup with Surge Protection outlets will supply power to connected equipment. During a power outage or other utility problems, the Battery Backup outlets receive power for a limited time from the Back-UPS.

Connect equipment such as printers, fax machines, scanners, or other peripherals that do not need battery backup power to the Surge Protection Only outlets. These outlets provide full-time protection from surges even if the Back-UPS is switched OFF.

Master and Controlled outlets

To conserve electricity, when the device connected to Master Outlet goes into Sleep or Standby mode, or turns Off, the Controlled device(s) will shut down as well, saving electricity.

Connect a master device, such as a desktop computer or audio/visual receiver to the Master outlet. Connect peripheral devices such as a printer, speakers, or a scanner to the Controlled outlets.
