Advanced Operation
Audio/Video components such as Digital Video Recorders, DLP projectors and any component with volatile memory can benefit from connection to a UPS. The Panamax
Critical Load Function
One of the user programmable settings in the Home Cinema Power Control software is the Low Battery NCL Shutoff thresh- old. This sets the battery capacity level at the point where the
Learning IR Control
The learning IR function lets you program the UPS to send standby or
Note: This function should only be used with discrete IR codes. Programming an On/Off toggle command could result in the equipment being turned ON during a power failure!
IR Power Failure Operation
The UPS can learn two IR commands. The learned commands will be transmitted on both output jacks so you have the ability to control 2 different pieces of equipment or use a
The IR Output Delay switches provide the ability to “ride- through” brief power outages without sending a
1.After a power failure and the selected delay, the IR codes will be sent to both outputs. The IR LED’s will flash once per second during the delay time and will stop flashing after the IR code is output.
2.If the delay settings are the same for both IR1 and IR2, the IR2 code will be sent to both outputs 2 seconds after IR1.
3.The IR commands will also be transmitted immediately after the battery charge falls below the critical load battery threshold. This ensures that equipment will be shutdown properly if the UPS’s load level is extremely high and the backup time would be less than the 5 minute
4.There is no IR output after the power is restored to the system.
IR LED Color & Status

Green, flashing | IR signal sampled | |
Red, flashing | Failed to learn IR signal |

To program IR output:
1.Press and hold the IR1 button for approximately 2 seconds.
2.When the IR1 LED turns solid GREEN, release the button (after approx. 2 seconds)
3.Point the remote control at the detector window and quickly press and release the appropriate button on the remote control. If no signal is received within 10 seconds, the programming mode is cancelled, the IR1 LED turns off and you will have to start over.
4.The IR1 LED flashes GREEN if the IR signal is sampled and stored in memory.
5.The IR1 LED will flash RED if the IR signal was not learned. Start over at Step 1.
6.Repeat steps
To clear IR programming:
1.Press and hold the appropriate IR button, release after 2 sec.
2.The IR LED turns solid Green
3.Press the button again. The IR code will be erased from memory and the LED will turn off.
IR Output Test
1.An IR flasher must be connected to the UPS and in
2.Make sure that the component to be controlled is turned ON.
3.Press and release the IRx button. The code for IRx will be transmitted on both IR1 and IR2 outputs.
4.If you are testing a
