zThis manual contains important safety instructions. Please read and follow all
instructions carefully during installation and operation of the unit. Read this
manual thoroughly before attempting to unpack, install, or operate.
zThe AC power outlet must be installed near the UPS and must be easily
accessible.
zAttention, risk of electric shock. Disconnecting this unit from the power mains,
does not remove the risk. Voltage may still be present from the battery pack.
The battery pack quick connectors should be disconnected before performing
maintenance or service work on the UPS.
zWhen replacing the batteries, use the same number and type of batteries
zDo not open or mutilate the battery or batteries. Electrolyte is harmful to the skin
and eyes.
zA battery can present a risk of electric shock and high short circuit current. The
following precaution should be observed when working on batteries
- Remove watches, rings or other metal objects.
- Use tools with insulated handles.
- Never short circuit the battery terminals.

UNPACKING
Inspect the UPS upon receipt. The box of PR3000 should contain the following:
(1) UPS Unit; (1) User’s Manual; (2) Rack Mount Brackets; (2) Stands; (1)
PowerPanel Plus Software Disk; (1) PowerPanel Software Disk; (1) Telephone Cable;
(2) Serial Interface Cables (RS232); (1) Serial-to-USB cable
HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR
EQUIPMENT
1. Insure that the equipment plugged into the seven battery power-supplied outlets
does not exceed the UPS unit’s rated capacity (3000VA/2200W for PR3000). If
rated unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition may occur and cause the
UPS unit to shut down or the circuit breaker to trip.
2. If the power requirements of your equipment are listed in units other than
Volt-Amps (VA), convert Watts (W) or Amps (A) into VA by doing the calculations
below. Note: The below equation only calculates the maximum amount of VA that
the equipment can use, not what is typically used by the equipment at any one
time. Users should expect usage requirements to be approximately 60% of the
maximum value.

TO ESTIMATE POWER REQUIREMENTS:
1. ______Watts (W) x 2.0 = _____VA or _____Amps (A) x 120 = _____VA
2. Add the totals up for all pieces of equipment and multiply this total by 0.6 to
calculate actual requirements. There are many factors that can affect the amount
of power that your computer system will require. The total load that you will be
placing on the battery-powered outlets should not exceed 80% of the unit’s
capacity.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
1. Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt.
However, recharging the battery for at least four hours is
recommended to insure that the batteries are fully
charged. Charge loss may occur during shipping and
storage. To recharge the battery, simply leave the unit
plugged into an AC outlet. The unit will charge in both the
on as well as the off position.
2. If you wish to use the software, connect the
enclosed serial interface cable to the serial port
on the UPS and an open serial port on the
computer. If you would like to use USB interface,
please connect the USB adapter with the serial
cable then connect the USB adapter to your
computer.
3. With the UPS unit off and unplugged, connect your
computer, monitor, and any other devices into the battery
power supplied outlets. DO NOT plug a laser printer,
copier, space heater, vacuum, paper shredder or other
large electrical device into the UPS. The power demands of
these devices will overload and possibly damage the unit.

4. To surge protect a network connection, connect a network cable from the wall jack
outlet to the IN jack of the UPS. Then connect a network cable from the OUT jack
on the UPS to the network device.
5. Plug the UPS into a wall outlet. Make sure the wall branch outlet is protected by a
fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with large electrical
demands (e.g. refrigerator, copier, etc…). Avoid using extension cords. If used,
the extension cord must be rated for 30 Amps.
6. Depress the power switch to turn the unit on. The power on indicator light will
illuminate.
7. Your UPS is equipped with an auto-charge feature. When the UPS is plugged into
an AC outlet, the battery will automatically recharge.
8. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all
times.
9. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully
charged. Recharge the batteries every three months to insure battery life.
10. To connect auxiliary battery pack :
(a.) Remove the protection cover on the UPS rear panel.
(b.) Connect the black wire and the red wire of the Battery Pack to the
negative (-) / black terminal and the positive (+) / red terminal of the
PR3000 respectively. (See Figure 1)
**Note: Due to the large current, make sure to connect the positive to positive
and the negative to negative. Otherwise, it may cause a short circuit and the
unit may be irreversibly damaged.

FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
 Power Switch
Press the power button to turn the UPS ON or OFF
 Test Switch The PR-UPS performs a self-test automatically when power on.
If the UPS passes the test, it returns to on-line operation. If the
UPS fails the self-test, please recharge the battery for 4 hours
and perform another self-test. If it fails after recharging the
battery, please replace the battery.
 Battery Indicators
This indicator shows a visual indication of the battery charge. If
battery capacity is under 20%, no indicator LED will illuminate
and UPS starts beeping.

 Load Level Indicators
This indicator shows a visual depiction of the UPS load. The load
indicator LED will turn orange if the load is between 80 and 100%.
If the load is under 20%, no indicator LED will illuminate.
 Power On Indicator
This LED is illuminated when the utility condition is normal and
the UPS outlets are providing “clean power”, free of surges and
spikes
Battery Indicator
This illuminates during utility failure, indicating that the battery is
supplying power to the battery-power supplied outlets.
 AVR Indicator This LED indicates that the UPS is operating in automatic
voltage regulation mode. When the led is illuminated
continuously, it indicates input over-voltage and the UPS unit
bucks the voltage. When the led is flashed in rotation, it
indicates that the UPS unit is boosting input voltage.

 Circuit Breaker Reset for Overload Protection
Re-settable circuit breakers provide optimal overload protection.
Battery Backup and Surge Protection Outlets
Provides six battery powered, surge protected andAVR
outlets for connected equipment and insures
uninterrupted operation of connected equipment during
a power failure.
Individual Backup Power for Critical Load
Provides a battery powered, surge protected and AVR outlet for
the most critical connected equipment and insures uninterrupted
operation of connected equipment during a power failure.
** NOTE: When the UPS is overloaded, the other six minor outlets will not provide
power to equipments, prior to the Individual Backup Power Outlet.
Communication Protection Ports
Ethernet RJ-45 Network Protection Ports protect standard
network cables.
Dual Serial Ports The PR3000 provides two serial ports to allow connection and
communication between the UPS and two computers. (See
Figure 2) This allows the simultaneous shutdown of two
computer systems. These interfaces are also compatible with
the UPS service provided by Windows 2000, Windows,
Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and Mac OS
10X.
