1 Introduction
This manual contains information for users of the Niky 1000/1500 models.
You are advised to read this handbook carefully before installing your uninterruptible power sup-
ply, meticulously following the instructions given herein.
The UPS NIKY is only been made for civil or industrial use; it is not in conformity with the standards
for electro-medical equipment.
• The UPS NIKY has been designed to supply data processing equipment. The load applied must
not exceed the one indicated on the rear label of your UPS.
• The ON/OFF button of your UPS does not electrically isolate the internal parts. To isolate your
UPS unplug it from the mains power socket.
• Do not open the UPS container since there may be parts inside with dangerously high voltage
even when the mains plug is disconnected; there are no parts inside that the user can repair.
• The UPS NIKY has been designed to work in closed, clean rooms where there are no inflammable
liquids or corrosive substances and where it is not too damp.
• Do not place near equipments that generate strong electro-magnetic fields and/or near equi-
pments that are sensible to electro-magnetic fields. (engines, floppy disks, speakers, adapters,
monitors, video, etc...)
• Do not pour any liquid on the UPS or inside the UPS.
• Do not place the UPS in humid environment or near liquid, such as water, chemical solution…
• Do not expose the UPS to the direct sunlight or any heat sorces.
• Keep the ventilation slits clean to dissipate the heat of the UPS.
• Use grounded power cable to connect the UPS to the mains supply.
• Do not plug laser printers into the UPS because of their high start-up current.
• Do not plug house electric equipments, such as hair dryer,air conditioner, and refrigerator into
the UPS outlets.

• Take your UPS out of its packing.
• Make sure the mains supply voltage is identical to the one indicated in the label placed on the
rear of the UPS.
• Switch on your UPS with the ON/OFF button and check it operates correctly with the mains
(green LED on).
• Switch the UPS off by pressing the ON/OFF button until the LED shuts down.
• After switching off the UPS, connect the load power cable to the UPS output using the outlet
located on the right side of the UPS.
• Switch on your UPS and then the load to check it operates correctly with the mains (green LED on).
• Keep the UPS on for 8 hours to recharge battery before using it.
• UPS can also be used before battery is completely charged, but in this case back up time availa-
ble during black out will be shorter.
LED indicators:
The different colours of the LEDs on the front panel indicate the following:
• LED1: Fixed green: mains present and regular.
Green flashing every 2 sec: batteries are recharging
• LED2: Fixed yellow: no mains (running on battery)
• LED3: Fixed red: overload alarm
• LED4: Red flashing every 0.5 sec: autonomy in reserve
Acoustic signals:
• Intermittent sound every 2 sec.: running on battery
• Intermittent sound every 0.5 sec: overload or autonomy in reserve
• Continuous sound: failure or generic alarm

4 Signals and controls
CAUTION
While wiring the outlet line, make sure the total length of the cable, from the UPS to the
farthest utility, does not exceed 10 metres.
NOTICE
Never disconnect the 230 V power plug while the UPS is operating since this would
disconnect the earthing protection both from the UPS and from the loads connected to it.

5 Overload and self-shutdown
Your UPS is equipped with a system to measure the power delivered at the outlet; when this ex-
ceeds the set thresholds, the protection and relative signals are activated; shutdown is automatic
with a delay in relation to the size of the overload.
Under the line mode the green led will be light. If the overload is 100% ± 10%; UPS will shutdown
after 5 minutes and go to fault mode. If the overload is 110% ± 10%; UPS will shutdown immedia-
tely and go to fault mode.
Under the battery mode the yellow led will be flashed. If the overload is 100% ± 10%; UPS will be
shutdown after 5 second and go to fault mode.
If the overload is 110% ± 10%; UPS will shutdown immediately and go to fault mode.
Self test
Automatic self text is executed each time the UPS is switched on, to provide a reliable operation.
Battery Protection
Automatic battery test and deep discharge protection.
DC start capability
The UPS can be switched on in DC mode (battery operation) rete provided the load does not
exceed 80% of the UPS’rated power.
UPS power supplied outlets
This is a line interactive UPS equipped with AVR, that allows to feed the load with a stabilized
output voltage even when mains floats.
Electrical protection
Automatic swith off upon short circuit.
Full time surge protection outlet
Connect the appliances not needing for back up protection (printers, fax etc.) to the surge
protected outlet located near the back of the unit.
EMI/RFI filtering:
Bad quality of mains supply can damage electronic appliances because of electromagnetic radio
frequency interferences.
The UPS is provided with a dedicated filter to eliminat these disturbances.

Software connection Niky 1000/1500
The UPS is equipped with a RS232 interface (DB9 cable for software communication is needed)
and USB interface, thanks to which it is possible by means of a computer to access a set of data
regarding the operation of the UPS and control the operating system unattended shutdown.
Software is available as on option for Win98/ME/2000, Novell and Linux, from the website
www.ups.legrand.com without charge. User license is included in the product.
Telephone protection
The NIKY UPS has an integrated, standard RJ11/RJ45 passing telephone connectionthat provides
protection for telephone or network equipment (modem, telephones, etc.) against overvoltage.

Caution
Opening, repairing, or replacing parts inside the UPS must always be carried out by specialized
technical personnel only. First of all, switch off the UPS with the ON/OFF button located on the
front panel, then unplug the power cable from the 230V outlet socket.
1) Switch off the uninterruptible power supply.
2) Unplug the power cable from the mains socket.
3) Change the batteries with others of the same type and make, or having the same features
Keep clear from fire to avoid explosion while handling batteries.
Do not open or tamper with the battery case, because it contains toxic electrolyte that could be
harmful for your skin or eyes. Keep out of children’s reach.
7 Changing batteries
NOTICE
The batteries must only be replaced by qualified technical personnel, who will dispose of
them in compliance with the law in force.

8 Possible malfunctioning
The UPS always operates on batteries:
• There is no line voltage
• Line voltage is out of allowed UPS range
• The power supply cable is not correctly connected to mains socket.
• The input circuit breaker has to be reset
• The mains socket is defective
The UPS signals overloading:
• Additional loads to the ones normally connected have involuntarily been connected on the
output line.
• Check all the loads connected to the output
The UPS doesn’t operate in battery mode (it shuts down or immediately signals it is close to the
operating limit):
• The UPS has operated with no mains voltage for a long time and has not been able to recharge
the battery. Recharge it for at least 6 hours by connecting the uninterruptible power supply to
the mains.
• The battery is flat due to not using the UPS for a long period. Recharge it for at least 6 hours by
connecting the uninterruptible power supply to the mains.
• The battery has run down due to being used frequently, to ambient conditions, or to having
exceeded its average service life; it is necessary to change it.
The UPS doesn’t deliver power to the output:
• Check that the loads are correctly connected to the output sockets
