Rackmount Solutions PRO1100E English, Connecting The Ups To An Ac Source, Charging The Battery

English

WARNING! DO NOT plug Power Strips or Surge Protection Devices into the ”Battery Backup” Receptacles on the UPS. Plugging Power Strips or Surge Protection Devices into the “Battery Backup” Receptacles may cause internal damage to the UPS, the Power

Strip, or the Surge Protection Device.

CONNECTING THE UPS TO AN AC SOURCE

Plug the UPS into a two pole, three wire, grounded receptacle only. Do not use extension cords, adapter plugs, power strips or surge strips.

CHECKING THE SITE WIRING FAULT

After plugging in the UPS, check the Site Wiring Fault (SWF) LED on the rear panel of the UPS. If the SWF LED is illuminated, the UPS is plugged into an improperly wired AC outlet.

CAUTION! If the UPS indicates a Site Wiring Fault (SWF), have a Qualified Electrician correct the problem.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

The PRO-E Series UPS will charge the internal batteries whenever the UPS is connected to an AC source. It is recommended that the UPS's batteries be charged for a minimum of 4 hours before use. The UPS may be used immediately, however, the “ON Battery” runtime may be less than normally expected.

NOTE: If the UPS is going to be out of service or stored for a prolonged period of time, the batteries must be recharged for at least twenty-four hours every ninety days.

COMMUNICATIONS PORT CONNECTION (OPTIONAL)

MINUTEMAN Power Monitoring Software and interface cables kits can be used with the PRO-E Series UPS. Use only MINUTEMAN or MINUTEMAN approved interface cables with these UPSs. Connect the interface cable (Serial or USB) to the appropriate communications port on the rear panel of the UPS. Connect the other end of the cable to the device that will be monitoring/controlling the UPS.

NOTE: Connecting to the Communications Port is optional. The UPS works properly without a connection.

NETWORK/FAX/MODEM PROTECTION CONNECTION (OPTIONAL) Connect a 10 Base-T network, Fax or Modem line to the RJ11/45 protection sockets on the rear panel of the UPS. This connection will require another length of telephone or network cable. The cable coming from the telephone service or networked system is connected to the port marked “IN”. The equip- ment to be protected is connected to the port marked "OUT".

NOTE: Connecting to the Network/Fax/Modem protection socket connection is optional. The UPS works properly without a connection.

WARNING: The RJ45 protection sockets for the 230V models are NETWORK PROTECTION ONLY. Connecting a Fax/Modem/Phone line is

PROHIBITED.
