SAFETY WARNINGS

(SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)

This manual contains important safety instructions. Please read and follow all instructions carefully during installation and operation of the unit. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to unpack, install, or operate your UPS.

This equipment can be operated by any individuals with no previous training. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and easily accessible.

During the installation of this equipment it should be assured that the sum of the leakage currents of the UPS and the connected loads does not exceed 3.5mA.

Attention, hazardous through electric shock. Also with disconnection of this unit from the mains, hazardous voltage still may be accessible through supply from battery. The battery supply should be therefore disconnected in the plus and minus pole at the quick connectors of the battery when maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary.

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, the battery may explode.

Do not open or mutilate the battery or batteries, released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. Do not replace the batteries of UP425UIT.

INSTALLING YOUR UPS SYSTEM

UNPACKING

Inspect the UPS upon receipt. The box should contain the following:

UPS Unit; PowerPanel Personal Edition Software Disk x 1; USB Cable x 1; Telephone Cable x 1; IEC-IEC Power Cord x 2; UPS User Manual; Warranty Card.

HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR EQUIPMENT

1.Insure that the equipment plugged into the battery power-supplied outlets does not exceed the UPS unit’s rated capacity (425VA/255W for UP425UIT, 550VA/330W for UP550UI, 750VA/450W for UP750UI). If rated unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition may occur and cause the UPS unit to shut down or the circuit breaker to trip.

2.If the power requirements of your equipment are listed in units other than Volt-Amps (VA), convert Watts (W) or Amps (A) into VA by doing the calculations below. Note: The below equation only calculates the maximum amount of VA that the equipment can use, not what is typically used by the equipment at any one time. Users should expect usage requirements to be approximately 60% of below value.

TO ESTIMATE POWER REQUIREMENTS

1.

 

Watts (W) x 1.6 =

 

VA or

 

Amps (A) x 230 =

VA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.Add the totals up for all pieces of equipment and multiply this total by 0.6 to calculate actual requirements. There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your computer system will require. The total load that you will be placing on the battery-powered outlets should not exceed 80% of the unit’s capacity.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE

1.Connect the equipment to your UPS outlets. The IEC-IEC power cords coming with the unit are used to connect your computer and monitor to the UPS. Items such as copiers, laser printers, vacuums, space heaters, or other large electrical devices should not be connected to the UPS. Please make sure that the total loads of your equipments are less than the maximum total power load of your UPS.

PLUG IN

PLUG IN

2.Use your computer power cord to connect the UPS to a wall outlet. Please avoid using extension cords and adapter plugs. (To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged in at all times.)

3.Press the UPS power button to turn it on. The “Power On” indicator will be illuminated in “Green”.

4.Install your software and accessories. To use the software, simply connect the enclosed USB/Serial interface cable to the USB/Serial port on the UPS and an open USB/Serial port on the computer.
