Quick Installation

1For All Models—Plug your UPS into a 3-wire grounded, 230V AC 50/60 Hz utility outlet.

For SMX Models Only:

After you plug the UPS into a live AC outlet, the UPS will automatically charge its batteries, but will not supply power to its outlets until it is turned ON (see Step 3 below). The BATTERY CHARGE LED will be the only LED illuminated.

For OMNIX Models Only:

Your UPS will run a self-test after it is plugged in. See Basic Operation to understand the results of its self-test.

2For All Models—Plug your equipment into the UPS.*

* Your UPS is designed to only support computer equipment. You will overload the UPS if the total VA ratings for all the equipment you connect exceeds the UPS’s Output Capacity (see Specifications). To find your equipment’s VA ratings, look on their nameplates. If the equipment is listed in amps, multiply the number of amps by 120 to determine VA. (Example: 1 amp × 230 x 1 = 230 VA). If you are unsure if you have overloaded the UPS’s outlets, see “OUTPUT LOAD LEVEL” LED description.

3For SMX Models Only—Turn the

UPS ON.

Press and hold the “POWER” button for one second. The alarm will beep once briefly after one second has passed. Release the button.

For OMNIX Models Only—Select UPS Operating Mode.*

Press the UPS/STANDBY button to toggle your UPS between the UPS (“POWER” LED lit) and the STANDBY (“POWER” LED flashing) modes. Choose the operating mode based on your location:

Western Europe:

•Leave the UPS in the UPS mode at all times. All Other Countries:

•Put the UPS in the STANDBY mode when you are not using connected equipment.

(WARNING! When set to “STANDDBY,” the UPS will not

provide battery backup during a blackout or brownout.)

•Put the UPS in the UPS mode when you are using connected equipment.

*See Basic Operation section for a complete explanation of

each mode.
