operation & installation
This Rackmount UPS can protect your equipment from surges, spikes, blackouts, brownouts and line noise.
When AC power is present and the UPS is on, it continues to charge the battery and provide the power to
the equipment directly from the AC line. The battery can provide stable power to complete your work, save
your data and safely shut down your system when the utility power has failed.

The UPS is simple to operate and install. Following are the steps to connect equipment to the UPS.
Conditions
Do not operate the UPS in an environment where the ambient temperature is outside the limits given in the
Specifications section of this manual.
Connection to the Utility Power
Plug the UPS into an electrical outlet. Do not plug it into an outlet that already uses a heavy electric load
(e.g., an air conditioner, refrigerator or laser printer). Check the product specication in this manual for
temperature conditions.
120 V AC Version
The 120 V AC version of the Rackmount UPS is furnished with a six-foot line cord terminated with a standard
NEMA 5-15P three-pronged plug. The UPS must be plugged into a two-pole, three-wire grounding receptacle.
If an extension cord must be used, use a three-wire grounding type rated at least 20 Amps. Plug the UPS into a
two-pole, three-wire grounded receptacle only. Avoid using extension cords and adapter plugs.
220 V AC Version
The 220 V AC version is furnished with one output power cord for connection to computer equipment having
IEC 320 male appliance couplers at their input. In most cases this will not be a problem, as the input cord
that currently powers your computer equipment may be swapped with the supplied output cord. Hence, the
swapped output line cord can be used instead as the input line cord for the UPS.

5
Initial Battery Charging
The UPS is shipped from the factory with its internal battery fully charged. However, the battery may lose some
charge during shipping and storage. The battery should be recharged before conducting the following test for
proper operation and to ensure the UPS will provide expected run time. The UPS automatically charges the
battery whenever the UPS is plugged in (the On/Off/Test switch doesn’t have to be turned on). The battery will
fully recharge when the UPS is left plugged in for at least eight hours. (Also see Battery Connection, P. 11.)
Connecting Your Equipment to the UPS
To ensure that your computer equipment will be protected during a utility failure and that you receive expected
run time, it is important that the total power needs of the equipment not exceed the capacity of the UPS. (See
the Overload Instruction chart below: Total power for Model 168205 should be no more than 1320 watts.)
Once you have determined that your equipment and the UPS are compatible, plug your equipment into the
rear panel output receptacles of the UPS.

Test for Proper Operation
Push the On/Off/Test button to turn on your computer equipment. The yellow indicator at the front panel
should be illuminated and your equipment should operate normally.
To test the operation of the Rackmount UPS, simply unplug its input cord to simulate a utility blackout. During
this time, the UPS will emit one beep once every 10 seconds and the yellow LED remains lit to remind you that
your equipment is operating from a source of power that is limited in duration. Restore power to the UPS by
plugging in the line cord. Repeat this test four or five times to ensure proper operation.
Another way to test the operation of the UPS is to simply press and hold the On/Off/Test button for four
seconds (four alarm beeps), and then release it to run a 10-second self-test routine. The UPS will transfer
your equipment to power derived from its internal battery and run a self-test.
controls & indicators
1. On/Off/Test Button: The On/Off/Test button controls power to the UPS and its output receptacles.
Press and hold the button for one second (the alarm will sound one short beep) to turn the unit on or off.
Press and hold the button for four beeps when utility power is normal and the UPS will simulate a utility
outage and perform a self-test, a convenient way to test the UPS battery.
During an actual utility power outage, the UPS will emit one beep once every 10 seconds.
2. Mute Switch: Press and hold this button for one second and the UPS will turn off the alarm after a short
beep. Press and hold this button for another second and the alarm function is restored after a short beep.
3. On-line/Booster and Buck LED: When the unit is in the AC normal mode, this green LED indicator will

7

be constantly on. It will be off
when the unit is off. When the
automatic voltage regulator (AVR)
is operating, this LED will blink.
4. On-battery LED: In On-battery
operation, this LED will be
constantly on and the UPS will
sound once every 10 seconds till
the unit reaches its low-battery warning level or the unit returns to AC normal.
5. Overload LED: When the unit senses an over-current condition in the output, this yellow LED will stay
on and the alarm will sound continuously to indicate an overload. See the Troubleshooting section to
recover the UPS from an overload situation.
6. Weak Battery/Internal Fault LED: When the battery goes bad or becomes weak or disconnected, this
red LED will light, indicating the battery must be replaced. The alarm will beep three times at one-minute
intervals if the battery is bad or disconnected, and will beep once a second if the battery is low. The LED
and alarm will remain in these states until the battery is replaced. If the LED lights up and the alarm sounds:
1. Allow the UPS to charge four to six hours.
2. Test the battery by turning the UPS off and back on again.
3. If the LED lights and the alarm sounds again, the battery must be replaced.
This LED will also light up when the unit has an internal fault. It remains off when all functions are normal.
7. Load LEDs: In AC or DC mode, the four LEDs indicate the load percentage on the UPS output. Each
LED indicates 25% of UPS load capacity; all four LEDs lighted indicates 100% of UPS load capacity.

8. AC Input Power Cord: Plug the
AC power cord into your power
source. (The 220 V version
features an AC input socket.)
9. Input Circuit Breaker: This
protects equipment plugged into
the outlet against short circuits or
system overload. The UPS will
trip the breaker when loads
exceed the UPS’s capacity. If the
circuit breaker trips, unplug at least one piece of equipment from its UPS connection and reset the breaker
by pressing the button back in.
If the AC input current is much higher than what the circuit breaker can regulate, the circuit breaker may
trip. Once the breaker is tripped, the UPS will attempt to power the load using its internal power source.
If the UPS detects an overload at this point, turn off the UPS and decide which equipment will be left
unprotected. Reset the breaker after the overload or short circuit is released, then restart the UPS.
NOTE: Most circuit breaker trips are due to overload conditions.
10 .Output Circuit Breakers: Six battery output sockets and two bypass output sockets equipped with
breakers protect against overcurrent on the output, tripping when an overload occurs.
11 . Surge Protection Outlets: These provide full-time protection against surges and spikes. Plug any
peripheral equipment that doesn’t require power during a utility power failure into these outlets and
prevent power problems traveling through your system via unprotected peripherals.

12 .Battery Backup & Surge Protection Outlets: These provide instantaneous backup power to your
equipment for temporary uninterrupted operation during the utility power failure.
13 .Site Wiring Fault (120 V version only): The LED will be illuminated if the UPS detects a fault in the
wiring of utility power outlets. There are three possible reasons for a wiring fault: reversed polarity, an
overloaded neutral or a missing ground wire.
14 . RJ-11/45 Phone/Network Surge Suppression: The RJ-45/11 provides protection against surges on the
telephone and data lines. Plug either a 10 Base-T network cable or single telephone line into the UPS’s
In jack. Plug the telephone line or the network cable from your equipment into UPS’s Out jack.
NOTE: This connection is not needed to properly use the UPS.
15 . Emergency Power Off (EPO) Port: This lets you turn off the UPS remotely using the provided cable.
Connect the EPO port of your UPS to a user-supplied normally closed or normally open switch. This will
allow connected loads to immediately be de-energized from a remote location without switching to
battery operation.
16 . RS-232 or USB Port: This connects an RS-232 or USB cable to the computer to use Power Saving Plus
(with RS-232 cable) or Power Saving Plus II (with USB cable) software to automatically save the les
and shut down the computer if the utility power fails.
NOTE: This connection is optional and is not needed to properly use the UPS.
17. SNMP Slot (Ready), SNMP Card (Optional): The built-in expansion slot is for an optional SNMP
card for network management/monitoring.
NOTE: The SNMP card an option. The UPS can work properly without the SNMP card.
