return the warranty registration card now.
Inspection
Inspect the UPS upon receipt. Notify the carrier
and dealer if there is damage. The packaging is
recyclable; save it for reuse or dispose of it
properly.
Placement
Check the Site Wiring Fault Indicator
Location: Top right corner of UPS back panel.
Caution:
If the site wiring fault indicator lights,
get a qualified electrician to correct the building
wiring.
Connect the Loads
Plug the loads into the output connectors on the
rear of the UPS. To use the UPS as a master
“On/Off” switch, make sure that all of the loads
are switched “On”.
Block Safe Outlets:
(420/650): Corded sockets
are provided which accept “block type” plugs
without covering other outlets. Some printers
and external disk drives have block type plugs
that look similar to the one below.
Install the UPS in a protected area that is free of
excessive dust and has adequate air flow. Do
not operate the UPS where the temperature and
humidity is outside the specified limits.
Warning: Changes or modifications to this
unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the
warranty.
Connect to Utility
Connect Telephone / Network Surge
Suppression (Optional)
Connect a single line telephone or a 10Base-T/
100Base-Tx network cable into the RJ-45/RJ-11
telephone/network surge protection “IN” jack on
the back of the UPS. Connect from the “OUT”
jack with telephone cable (supplied) or network
cabling (not supplied) to a fax modem or network
port.
Connect Computer Interface
Port (Optional)
PowerChute®
plus
power management software
is included with this UPS. Connect the supplied
interface cable to the 9-pin computer interface
port on the back panel of the UPS. Connect to
the computer. See software documentation for
installation instructions.
Charge the battery
The UPS charges its battery whenever it
is connected to utility power. The battery will
charge fully during the first 4 hours of normal
operation. Do not expect full runtime during this
initial charge period.
Caution: Do not connect a laser
printer to the Battery Backup Outlets.
Cord Straps:
Straps are provided to keep cords
from tangling and taking up too much space.
Battery Backup Outlets:
These UPS outlets
provide battery power and surge protection to
equipment when utility voltage is outside
acceptable limits. Data sensitive equipment such
as a computer, monitor, or external drive are
connected to these outlets.
Surge Protected Outlets:
These outlets are for
equipment that need surge protection but do not
need power during a utility outage (like an inkjet
printer or scanner).
Operating Instructions
Switch “On” — Switch “Off”
The loads are not affected by a failed test.
Recharge the battery overnight and perform the
self-test again. If the replace battery LED is still
"On”, replace the battery using the
Replacing
the Battery
procedure.
On-Battery
During on-battery operation, the on-
battery LED illuminates and the UPS
sounds an audible alarm consisting of 4
beeps every 30 seconds. The alarm stops when
the UPS returns to on-line operation.
Low Battery
When the UPS is operating on-battery and the
energy reserve of the battery runs low, the UPS
beeps continuously until the UPS shuts down
from battery exhaustion or returns to on-line
operation.
Overload
When loads exceed the UPS’s capacity,
the overload LED illuminates and the
UPS emits a sustained tone. The alarm
remains “On” until the overload is removed.
Disconnect nonessential load equipment from
the battery backup outlets, to eliminate the
overload.
If the overload is severe, the input circuit breaker
may trip (the resettable center plunger of the
circuit breaker pops out), as well. Disconnect
nonessential load equipment from the UPS to
eliminate the overload and press the plunger
back in to restart the UPS.
If there is AC power and the circuit breaker does
not trip during overload, the loads are still
powered. If the circuit breaker trips or the UPS
attempts to transfer to battery, the loads’ power
will be shut “Off”. Turn the UPS “Off” then back
“On” to repower the loads.
Replace Battery
If the battery fails a self-test, the UPS
emits short beeps for one minute and
the replace battery LED illuminates.
The UPS repeats the alarm every five hours.
Perform the self-test procedure to confirm
replace battery conditions. The alarm stops
when the battery passes the self-test.
Shutdown Mode
If there is no power, the host connected to the
computer interface port can command the UPS
to shut down. This is normally done to preserve
battery capacity after a controlled shutdown of
the protected system. In shutdown mode the
UPS stops supplying power to the load. The on-
line and overload LED indicators flash alternately
or, if the UPS has shutdown due to a low battery,
the UPS will beep once every 4 seconds for
approximately 16 seconds. When line power is
restored, the UPS will return to on-line operation.
Cold Start
Note: Cold start is not a normal operating
condition.
When the UPS is “Off” and there is no utility
power, it is possible to cold start the UPS to
power the loads from the UPS’s battery.
•
Press and hold
the On/Off/Test button
until the UPS begins beeping.
•
Release
the On/Off/Test button
during
the
beeping to start the UPS.
With the UPS plugged in, press and
release the On/Off/Test button to supply
power to the loads.
The UPS loads are immediately powered while
the UPS performs a self-test. Press and release
the button again to turn “Off” power to the loads.
It may be convenient to use the UPS as a
master “On/Off” switch for the protected
equipment.
Note: Surge protected outlets are powered
whenever the UPS has utility power.
The on-line LED illuminates when the
UPS is supplying utility power to the
battery backup loads.
Self-test
The UPS performs a self-test automatically when
turned “On”, and every two weeks thereafter (by
default). Automatic self-test eliminates the need
for periodic manual self-tests.
During the self-test, the UPS briefly operates the
loads on-battery. If the UPS passes the self-test,
it returns to on-line operation.
If the UPS fails the self-test it
immediately returns to on-line operation
and lights the replace battery LED.

Battery Replacement Procedure
Battery replacement is a safe procedure, isolated from electrical hazards.
You may leave the UPS and loads “On” for the following procedure.
Note: Once the battery is disconnected, the loads are not protected
from power outages.
1. Lay the UPS on its left side. Remove the two screws
holding on the battery door and open the door.
Note: It may be necessary to pull the battery door slightly
toward the front of the unit in order to open the door fully.
2. Gently pull out the battery by grasping the white tab.
7. Dispose of the old battery properly at an appropriate
recycling facility or return it to the supplier in the packing
material for the new battery. See the new battery
instructions for more information.
3. Disconnect the two wires connecting the battery to the
UPS. Loosen the wires by wiggling them while pulling
straight back from the battery connector.
4. Connect the new battery in place of the old.
Note: Small sparks at the battery connections are
normal during connection.
5. Place the new battery in the UPS. Use care to avoid
pinching the wires.
6. Close the battery compartment door and replace the
screws.
