CHARGING THE BATTERY
The Battery Packs will charge the internal batteries whenever the Battery Pack
is connected to an AC source and there an acceptable AC voltage present. It is
recommended that the Battery Packs be charged for a minimum of 4 hours
before use. The Battery Pack maybe used immediately, however, the “On-
Battery” runtime of the UPS may be less than normally expected. NOTE: If the
Battery Pack is going to be out of service or stored for a prolonged period of
time, the batteries must be recharged for at least 24 hours every ninety days.
DAISY CHAINING
(QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY)
"Daisy Chaining" means hooking one Battery Pack to another Battery Pack to
another Battery Pack, this chain could go on indefinitely. Follow the steps
below to Daisy Chain the Battery Packs.
1. Be sure to read the installation placement procedure, all of the cautions and
the safety precautions before Daisy Chaining the Battery Pack(s).
2. Make sure that all, the Battery Pack's DC circuit breakers and UPS's power
switch, are in Off position. CAUTION: If the Battery Pack's DC circuit bre-
aker is in the On position, the battery voltage will be present at the open
end of the Battery Pack's external battery cable and external battery conn-
ector. Unplug all the equipment that is plugged into the UPS's output rece-
ptacles. Disconnect the power cords, that are on the Battery Packs and
the UPS, from the AC wall outlet.
3. Remove the External Battery Connector cover from the UPS's rear panel and
the additional Battery Packs.
4. Verify, before plugging the external battery cable into the UPS's external
battery connector or the Battery Pack's external connector that they mate
red to red and black to black.
5. Connect the external battery cable from the first Battery Pack to the exter-
nal battery connector on the UPS.
6. Connect the external battery cable from the second Battery Pack to the ex-
ternal battery connector on the first Battery Pack.
CONNECTING THE BATTERY PACK TO AN AC SOURCE
These Battery Packs can operate with 115VAC or 230VAC input volt age. Be-
fore connecting the Battery Pack to an AC Source, verify that the Battery Pack's
dipswitch is set for the proper input voltage.
1. Set the dipswitch on the rear panel of the Battery Pack to the appropriate
input voltage.
2. Connect the input power cord for the Battery Pack into the AC Inlet on the
Battery Pack.
3. Plug the other end of the input power cord for the Battery Pack into the AC
wall outlet, use a two pole, three wire, grounded receptacle only. Do not
use extension cords, adapter plugs, or surge strips.
4. Turn the DC circuit breaker to the On position. See the UPS User's Manual
for the normal startup of the UPS. NOTE: If connecting more than one
Battery Pack see Daisy Chaining.
