AC-power system via a wall outlet
with an earth connector, using the
attached cord for a UPS with FR/
DIN sockets or with the supply cord
of your computer for a UPS with
IEC sockets (see figure A).
Plug critical equipment

(computer, monitor, modem,
etc.) into the outlets 6 providing
battery backup power and surge
protection (see figure B), taking
care not to exceed the rated current
indicated in amperes.
Other devices (printer, scanner,

Battery charge: The UPS
l
charges the battery as soon as it is
connected to the AC outlet, whether
button 8 is pressed or not. When
used for the first time, the battery
will only provide its maximum
autonomy after it has been charged
for 8 hours. It is recommended that
the UPS be permanently connected
to the AC power supply to ensure
the best possible autonomy.
Switching-on the UPS: press
l
button 8 for about 1 second.
Filtered outlets 5 without
l
battery backup: Equipment
connected to these outlets is
supplied as soon as the AC cord is
plugged in. They are not affected by
button 8 .
Battery backup outlets 6 :
l
Equipment connected to these
outlets is supplied as soon as
button 8 turns green (see figure
E). These outlets can be turned on
even if the UPS is not connected to
AC power (button 8 flashes).
AC-power disturbance: If AC
l
power is disturbed or fails, the UPS
continues to operate on battery
power. Button 8 flashes green.
In normal mode, the audio alarm
beeps every five seconds, then
every two seconds when the end of
battery backup time is near.
If the power outage lasts longer
l
than the battery backup time, the
UPS shuts down and automatically
restarts when power is restored.
Following a complete discharge, a
few hours are required to recharge
the battery back to full backup time.
To save battery power, it is
l
possible to press button 8 to cut
the supply of power to the devices
connected to the battery backup
outlets.
Lightning protection: All outlets,
l
whether backed up or simply
filtered, include surge protection,
whatever the position of button 8 .
