Installation

Unpacking and Inspection

Examine the packaging for damage. Inform the carrier immediately if and/or when damage is noticed. Retain the packaging for future use.

Placement

Install the UPS in a protected area with adequate airflow and free of excessive dust. Do not operate the UPS where the temperature and humidity is outside the specified limits.

Connect Computer Interface (optional)

UPSilon 2000 (or selected option) and an interface kit can be used with this UPS. Use only kits supplied or approved by the manufacturer. If used, connect the interface cable to the 9 pin computer interface port on the back panel of the UPS (See Back Panel).

Note: Computer interface connection is optional. The UPS works properly without a computer interface connection.

Connect External Battery Bank (optional)

Before connecting, make sure the external battery bank and the connector cable are compatible with this UPS.

Note: External battery connection is not necessary. The UPS will work properly without an external battery bank connection.

Caution: Use only factory supplied external battery connection cables!

Connect to Utility

Connect the AC input power connector (included) to utility power.

Charging the Battery

The UPS charges its battery whenever it is connected to utility power. For best results, charge the battery for 4 hours initially before connecting the load.

Connecting the Loads

Plug the loads into the output connectors on the rear of the UPS. To use the UPS as a master on/off switch, make sure all of the loads plugged into the UPS are switched on. Also available on these models is a surge-protected outlet where you can plug in your laser printer, plotter, etc.

Note: Never connect a laser printer or plotter to a backup outlet with other computer equipment. A laser printer or plotter draws significantly more power on start-up than when idle, and will overload the UPS. If you wish to have battery backup on a laser printer or plotter you will need to increase the size of the UPS system.
