◆Power On Indicator
This LED is illuminated when the utility condition is normal and the UPS outlets are providing “clean power”, free of surges and spikes.
REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION
◆Backup Power for Critical Loads
The UPS provides 2 battery powered and surge protected outlets for the most critical connected equipments and insures temporary uninterrupted operation of connected equipments during a power failure.
NOTE: When the UPS is overloaded, the UPS will interrupt power supply to the other 6 battery outlets and leave these 2 outlets for critical loads uninterrupted.
◆Battery Backup and Surge Protection Outlets

◆Serial/ USB Ports
The PP1500E/PP2200E provides two serial and one USB ports to allow connection and communication between the UPS and two computers. This allows the simultaneous shutdown of two computer systems. These interfaces are also compatible with the UPS service provided by Windows 2000, Windows, Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003.
1. The Primary PC
To control and to make any change to the operation of the UPS, please install the PowerPanel® Business Edition in your primary computer and then connect it to the Serial Port I or USB port of the UPS.
2. The Secondary PC
The secondary computer with PowerPanel® installed should be connected to the serial port II. This PC will shutdown following the user settings in PowerPanel® Software when a power failure occurs but it is unable to exhibit any control over the UPS.
When power failure occurs, one of the following shutdown sequences will be executed:
1.If the Primary and Secondary serial ports are both in use: the Primary computer will start to count down (user controlled delay) for shutdown (User Control delay can be set in the PowerPanel® Business Edition software. Recommended time is 5 minutes). Once the Primary computer is shutdown, the UPS will signal the Secondary computer and initiate the Secondary to shutdown. The
UPS default shutdown time is 2 minutes. Therefore, it is recommended that Secondary computer is set to shutdown within 1 minute in PowerPanel® Software.
2.If only the Secondary serial port is in use: the Secondary computer will shutdown following the user settings in PowerPanel® Software. However, the Secondary computer will not able to signal the UPS to shutdown. Therefore, the UPS will only power off when it is in low battery.
