5.For SG800 - SG1K models, connect the power cord to the UPS inlet located on the UPS rear panel. On SG1.5K - SG3K models the line cord is permanently attached to the UPS.

6.Select a suitable location for the UPS near enough to the computer or equipment to to be protected. Connect the power cord(s) for the equipment to be protected to the UPS output receptacles.

VERIFY THE TABLE OR SURFACE SUPPORTING THE UPS WILL SUPPORT THE

WEIGHT OF THE UPS AND ANY OPTIONAL EXTENDED BATTERY BANKS.

800VA-1KVA UPS MODELS = 33 lbs. (14.9 kg)

1.5KVA- 2KVA UPS MODELS = 68.4 lbs. (31 kg) 3KVA UPS MODELS = 81.4 lbs. (37 kg)

MINI-TOWER EXTENDED BATTERY BANKS = 123 lbs. (55.8 kg) MAX. (EACH BANK) FLOOR STANDING EXTENDED BATTERY BANKS = 363 lbs. (165 kg) MAX. (EACH BANK)

7.If extended battery banks are to be connected to the UPS, please refer to page 8 for further instructions.

8.If unattended computer shutdown and monitoring are desired, connect the green UPS/Computer cable to the DB-9 connector located on the UPS rear panel. Then install the shutdown and monitoring software provided with the UPS. For your reference, UNIX shutdown and monitoring software is available from Falcon Electric at an additional cost.

9.Verify the location selected has adequate ventilation to allow for the proper cooling of the UPS.

DO NOT BLOCK UPS FANS OR AIR VENTS. THE UPS MUST NOT BE INSTALLED IN AN ENCLOSED AREA.

11.Plug the UPS power cord into the nearest grounded wall outlet. SG1K-2T 208-240V models will automatically turn on Since they do not have an input circuit

breaker. For all other SG models, go to step 12.

12.Turn the input circuit breaker located on the UPS rear panel to the “on” position. The internal UPS fan and front panel "line" indicator should turn on, followed by the "bypass" LED, and after several seconds, the "inverter" LED.

13.Turn on the connected equipment and verify the UPS does not go into overload by observing the front panel load indicator LEDs.

14.The UPS, optional external battery bank(s) and additional chargers should be plugged in and turned on for 24 hours to charge the batteries. During this initial 24 hour charging period, battery backup time may be substantially reduced.

IMPORTANT

TO TURN OFF THE UPS, SWITCH OFF THE INPUT CIRCUIT BREAKER LOCATED ON THE UPS REAR PANEL AND PRESS THE ON/OFF BUTTON LOCATED ON THE UPS FRONT PANEL UNTIL THE UPS BEEPS. THE UPS WILL RUN FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND SHUTDOWN. DO NOT PRESS THE ON/OFF BUTTON OR TURN THE CIRCUIT BREAKER ON AGAIN DURING THE SHUTDOWN PROCESS OR THE UPS WILL GO TO AN ALARM CONDITION, WARNING THAT THE UPS WAS NOT SHUTDOWN PROPERLY. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, TURN OFF THE INPUT CIRCUIT BREAKER AGAIN AND WAIT UNTIL THE UPS SHUTS DOWN.
