The UPS has three battery backup outlets that provide power when the UPS operates on bat- tery (see Figure 2 below).

• Plug the loads into the battery backup outlets on the rear of the UPS.

Step 2 Decide Where to Place the UPS

The UPS must be placed indoors, protected from water, direct sunlight and excessive heat.

Provide at least 4" (100mm) of clearance on all sides of the unit for proper ventilation.

Step 3 Charge the UPS Battery Before

Use

The UPS battery is not charged before shipping. It MUST be charged before use.

• Connect the UPS power cord to a wall outlet and charge for at least eight hours.

Note: If battery is placed in storage, charge the battery every six months if kept at 5°F to 85°F (-15°C to 29°C)—or every three months if kept at 86°F (30°C) or higher.

Step 4 Start the UPS

After the battery is fully charged:

•Turn on the UPS by pressing the On/Off button (see Figure 1 below).

LED 1 should be illuminated (green), indicating the UPS is operating in Normal Mode.

Caution: Do not connect a laser printer to the

UPS.

Step 7 Connect the Network Surge Protection

The UPS has two RJ-45 jacks for network lines (see Figure 2 below).

• Connect a single-line network cable into the RJ-45 network surge protection IN jack on the rear of the UPS.

• Connect an RJ-45 cable from the OUT jack on the rear of the UPS to a port on a PC or network device such as a router.
