1-1. Transportation
• Make sure to transport the UPS system only in the original package to protect it against shock and impact.
1-2. Preliminary steps
• Water condensation may occur if the UPS is unpacked in a very cold environment and then moved to a warmer location.
• The UPS must be thoroughly dry before being installed. Failure to do so may increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not install the UPS system near water or in moist environments.
• Do not install the UPS system where it would be exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater or heating vent.
• Do not block ventilation holes in the UPS housing.

Do not connect appliances or equipment that may overload the UPS system (such as a laser printer) to the output
sockets.
Place cables in such a way that no one can step on or trip over them.
Do not connect domestic appliances, such as hair dryers, to the UPS output sockets.
Connect the UPS system only to an earthed shockproof outlet which must be easily accessible and close to the UPS
system.
Use CE-marked cables for connections between mains, the UPS and equipment (shockproof outlet).
Use CE-marked power cables to connect the loads to the UPS system.
During the installation of this equipment, make sure that the sum of the leakage currents of the UPS and the connected
loads shall not exceed 3.5 mA.
Do not disconnect the mains cable on the UPS system or the building wiring outlet (shockproof socket outlet) at any time,
since this would cancel the protective earth of the UPS system and of all connected loads.
Connect the UPS only to a grounded socket that meets electrical safety guidelines.
Locate the UPS near a wall socket. Do not use an extension cord between the UPS and the socket.
In the event of an emergency, press the OFF/Enter button and disconnect the power cord from the AC mains to properly
disable the UPS. Do not allow any kind of liquid or foreign object to enter this UPS unit.
Do not place beverages or any other containers with liquid on or nearby the unit.
The UPS can be operated by any individual with no previous experience.

Install the UPS unit in any protected environment that provides adequate airflow around the unit, and free from excessive
dust, corrosive fumes and conductive contaminants. Do not operate your UPS in an environment where the ambient
temperature or humidity is high. For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 0° C and 40° C. Place the
UPS unit at least 20 cm away from monitors to avoid interference.

The voltage used by this UPS may be hazardous. The unit contains no user serviceable parts; do not attempt to
disassemble the unit. Only qualified service technicians can perform maintenance on the unit. Failure to adhere to this
could cause personal injury or equipment malfunction and void the warranty.
Caution - risk of electric shock. Even after the unit is disconnected from the mains, components inside the UPS system
are still connected to the battery packs which are potentially dangerous.
Before carrying out any kind of service and/or maintenance, disconnect the batteries and verify that no current is
present and no hazardous voltage exists in the terminals of high capacity capacitors, such as BUS-capacitors. Servicing
of batteries should be performed or supervised by experts who possess the knowledge to closely follow all required
precautions.
Caution: potentially hazardous voltages from the battery can still be present even after disconnecting the UPS from the
AC mains. Therefore, the positive and negative terminals of the battery shall de disconnected prior to performing any
maintenance or repair inside the unit.
A battery can present the risk of short-circuit current and electrical shock. The following precautions should be taken:
- remove wristwatches, rings and other metal objects
- use only tools with insulated grips and handles.
When replacing the battery, make sure to use the same type and number of sealed lead-acid batteries specified.
Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. Batteries may explode if exposed to high temperatures.
Never try to open a battery. The cell contains a toxic electrolyte which is harmful to the skin and eyes.
Replace the fuse only with the same type and amperage in order to avoid fire hazards.
Do not dismantle the UPS system.

USB port RS-232 port Intelligent slot
To allow for unattended UPS shutdown/start-up and status monitoring, connect one end of the communication cable to
the USB/RS-232 port, and the other end to the communication port of your PC. With the monitoring software installed, you
can schedule UPS shutdown/start-up and monitor its status through a PC.
The UPS is equipped with intelligent slot perfect for either SNMP card. When installing a SNMP card in the UPS, it will
provide advanced communication and monitoring options.
Note: The USB and RS-232 ports cannot be used at the same time.
Network/Fax/Phone port
Connect the network surge protection
The UPS has two network cable RJ45 connectors for network lines
• Connect a single line modem/phone/fax cable into the network surge-protection “IN” jack on the rear panel of the UPS.
• Connect a network cable from the OUT jack on the rear of the UPS to a port on a PC or network device such as a router.
Turning on the UPS
Press the ON/Mute button on the front panel for two seconds to power on the UPS.
Note: The battery charges fully during the first five hours of normal operation. Do not expect full battery run capability
during this initial charge period.
Communication port:
