Operating conditions

This product is an Uninterruptible
l
Power Supply (UPS) for computers
and their peripherals, television
sets, stereo systems and video
recorders... It must not be used to
supply other electrical equipment
(lighting, heating, household
appliances, etc.).
UPS can be installed in
l
horizontal, vertical position, or
placed in Rack 2U (optional kit).
UPS connections
Connect the UPS 1 to the
l
AC-power system via a wall outlet
with an earth connector, using the
supplied cord 4 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
l
(computer, monitor, modem,
etc.) into the outlets 9 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,
l
fax, etc.) can be connect to the
filtered outlets 8 that provide
surge protection (see figure B). The
filtered outlets are not backed up
by battery power in the event of a
power outage.
Optional Internet modem /
l
Network connection:
A modem or Ethernet data line
can be protected against surges by
connecting it via the UPS. Connect
the existing device cable between
the wall outlet and the UPS, and
use a similar cable between the
UPS and the device, as indicated in
figure C (cable not supplied).
Optional USB connection:
l
The UPS device can be connected
to the computer using the USB
cable 5 supplied.
The software is available on the
CD-ROM 5 or downloadable
from powerquality.eaton.com
(see figures D and F).

Master and EcoControl
outlets operating
procedure
In order to limit energy
consumption of peripherals
(scanner, printer) in standby mode,
the Ellipse ECO is equipped
with EcoControl outlets that are
dependent on the Master outlet.
When the main application
supplied by the Master outlet
(computer) is shut down,
the EcoControl outlets are
6
automatically deactivated and the
peripherals shut down.
This function (deactivated by
default) is validated and configured
using the configuration tool
integrated in the software.
Note: When the function is
activated, do not connect critical
applications to EcoControl
outlets.
Threshold setup
A default setup ensures the correct
operation of the EcoControl
function. However, depending
on the consumption of the main
load, the trigger threshold of
the EcoControl function may
have to be modified using the
configuration software supplied
with the UPS:
First, make sure that the function
l
is activated in the "EcoControl
Function" tab of the configuration
tool.
If the peripherals connected
l
to the EcoControl outlets do not
switch off when the main load is
not in normal operation (ex: when
in standby mode), the detection
threshold value must be set to
High.
If the rated consumption level
l
of the main load is low and the
EcoControl outlets shut down
when the main load is operating
normally, the detection threshold
value must be set to Low.
Operation
8 : Filtered outlets.
9 : Battery backup outlets.
10 : LED ON indicate that surge
protection is active.
11 : LED ON indicate a UPS fault.
12 : ON/OFF button for the battery
backup outlets.
13 : Protection circuit breaker.
Battery charge: The UPS
l
charges the battery as soon as it is
connected to the AC outlet, whether
button 12 is pressed or not. When
used for the first time, the battery
will only provide its maximum
Ellipse 500 / 650 / 800

11
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 12 for about 1 second.
Filtered outlets 8 without
l
battery backup: Equipment
connected to these outlets is
supplied as soon as the AC cord 4
is plugged in. They are not affected
by button 12 .
Battery backup outlets 9 :
l
Equipment connected to these
outlets is supplied as soon as
button 12 turns green (see figure
E). These outlets can be turned on
even if the UPS is not connected to
AC power (button 12 flashes).
AC-power disturbance: If AC
l
power is disturbed or fails, the UPS
continues to operate on battery
power. Button 12 flashes green.
In normal mode, the audio alarm
beeps every ten seconds, then
every three seconds when the end
of battery backup time is near. In
silent mode (see the section on
settings), the audio alarm simply
beeps once when the UPS transfers
to battery power.
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 possible
l
to press button 12 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 12 .
Shutdown of the battery backup
l
outlets 9 : Press button 12 for
more than two seconds.
