1. Important Safety Warning
Please comply with all warnings and operating instructions in this manual strictly. Save this
manual properly and carefully read the following instructions before installing the unit. Do not
operate this unit before reading through all safety information and operating instructions
carefully.
1-1. Transportation
lPlease transport the UPS system only in the original packaging to protect against
shock and impact.
1-2. Preparation
lCondensation may occur if the UPS system is moved directly from cold to warm
environment. The UPS system must be absolutely dry before being installed. Please
allow at least two hours for the UPS system to acclimate to the environment.
lDo not install the UPS system near water or in moist environments.
lDo not install the UPS system where it would be exposed to direct sunlight or near a
heater.
lDo not block ventilation holes in the UPS housing.
1-3. Installation
To guarantee UPS normal operation, before connecting devices to the UPS, please
verify that ground and neutral lines of the connected devices are not short circuited.
(see Figure 1)
Figure 1
If neutral line and ground line are short circuited, please add isolation transformer
between UPS and devices. (see Figure 2)

5. Storage and Maintenance
Operation
The UPS system contains no user-serviceable parts. If the battery service life (3~5 years
at 25°C ambient temperature) has been exceeded, the batteries must be replaced. In this
case, please contact your dealer.
Storage
Before storing, charge the UPS for minimum 5hours. Store the UPS covered and upright in
a cool, dry location. During storage, recharge the battery in accordance with the following
table:
Storage Temperature Recharge Frequency Charging Duration
-25°C - 40°C Every 3 months 1-2 hours
40°C - 45°C Every 2 months 1-2 hours
Be sure to deliver the used battery to a recycling facility or ship it to your
dealer in the replacement battery packing material.
Maruson Technology Corporation 3ULTIMA SERIES1K-3KVA |2012 Jan.
Never connect neutral line of input to neutral line of output. Otherwise, it will cause
the damage of the UPS. (see Figure 3)
Figure 3
lDo not connect appliances or devices which would overload the UPS system to the
UPS output sockets.
lPlace cables in such a way that no one can step on or trip over them.
lThe UPS can be operated by any individuals with no previous experience.
lConnect the UPS system only to an earthed shockproof outlet which must be easily
accessible and close to the UPS system.
lPlease use only VDE-tested, CE-marked mains cable (e.g. the mains cable of your
computer) to connect the UPS system to the building wiring outlet (shockproof
outlet).
lPlease use only VDE-tested, CE-marked power cables to connect the loads to the UPS
system.
lWhen installing the equipment, make sure the sum of the leakage current of the UPS
and the connected devices does not exceed 3.5mA.
1-4. Operation
lDo not disconnect the mains cable on the UPS system or the building wiring outlet
(shockproof socket outlet) during operations since this would cancel the protective
earthing of the UPS system and of all connected loads.
lThe UPS system features its own internal current source (batteries). The UPS output
sockets and output terminals block may be electrically live even if the UPS system is
not connected to the building wiring outlet.
lIn order to fully disconnect the UPS system, first press the OFF/Enter button to
disconnect the mains.
lPrevent fluids and other foreign objects from entering the inside of the UPS system.
1-5. Maintenance, Service, and Faults
lThe UPS system operates with hazardous voltages. Repairs may be carried out only
by qualified maintenance personnel.
lCaution - risk of electric shock. Even after the unit is disconnected from the mains
(building wiring outlet), components inside the UPS system are still connected to the
battery and electrically live and dangerous.
lBefore 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 capability capacitor such as BUS-capacitors.
lOnly persons adequately familiar with batteries and with the required precautionary
measures may replace batteries and supervise operations. Unauthorized persons
must be kept well away from the batteries.

Maruson Technology Corporation 4ULTIMA SERIES1K-3KVA |2012 Jan.
lCaution - risk of electric shock. The battery circuit is not isolated from the input
voltage. Hazardous voltages may occur between the battery terminals and the
ground. Before touching, please verify that no voltage is present!
lBatteries may cause electric shock and have a high short-circuit current. Please take
the precautionary measures specified below and any other measures necessary when
working with batteries:
Remove wristwatches, rings, and other metal objects
Use only tools with insulated grips and handles.
lWhen changing batteries, install the same number and same type of batteries.
lDo not attempt to dispose of batteries by burning them. This could cause battery
explosion.
lDo not open or destroy batteries. Escaping electrolyte can cause serious injury to the
skin and eyes and may be toxic.
lPlease replace the fuse only with the same type and amperage in order to avoid fire
hazards.
lDo not dismantle the UPS system.

Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
Fault code is shown as 1, 2, 3, 4,
11, 12, 13 and 41 on LCD display
and alarm is continuously
sounding.
A UPS internal fault has
occurred. There are two
possible causes:
1. The load is still supplied,
but directly from AC power
via bypass.
2. The load is no longer
supplied by power.
Contact your dealer.
Batteries are not fully
charged Charge the batteries for at least 5 hours and then
check capacity. If the
problem still persists,
consult your dealer.
Battery backup time is shorter
than nominal value
Batteries defect Contact your dealer to
replace the battery.

2-2. Setup the UPS
Step 1: UPS Input Connection
Plug the UPS into a two-pole, three-wire, grounded receptacle only. Avoid using extension
cords. The input plug is a #18*3C for 1K/2K and 1.5mm2*3C or 14*3C for 3K.
Step 2: UPS Output Connection
Simply plug devices to output sockets. During power failure, UPS will provide power to
connected devices.
Step 3: Communication Connection
Communication port:
To allow for unattended UPS shutdown/start-up and status monitoring, connect one end of the
communication cable to the RS-232 port and the other to the communication port of your PC.
With the monitoring software installed, you can schedule UPS shutdown/start-up and monitor
UPS status through the PC.
The 2K(L) model is equipped with intelligent slot for SNMP, RS-232, USB, or AS-400 card. When
installing with the communication card in the UPS, it will provide advanced communication and
monitoring options.
Step 1: Step 2: Step 3:
Remove cover of intelligent
slot. Insert communication card into the slot Screw card tightly and complete installation.
Step 4: Network Connection
Connect a single modem/phone/fax line into surge-protected IN outlet on the back panel of the
UPS unit. Connect from OUT outlet to the equipment with another modem/fax/phone line
cable.

UPS will backup power from battery.
Maruson Technology Corporation 7ULTIMA SERIES1K-3KVA |2012 Jan.
Step 5: Turn 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.
Step 6: Install Software
For optimal computer system protection, install UPS monitoring software to fully configure UPS
shutdown. You may insert provided CD into CD-ROM to install the monitoring software. If not,
please follow steps below to download and install monitoring software from the internet:
1. Go to the website http://www.power-software-download.com
2. Click the ViewPower software icon and then choose your required OS to download the
software.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the software.
4. When your computer restarts, the monitoring software will appear as an orange plug icon
located in the system tray near the clock.
Step 7: External Battery Connection
Follow the below chart to make external battery connection.
Step 8: External Battery Capacity Configuration in Software
To calculate accurate backup time of external batteries, it’s necessary to configure battery
numbers in software. The standard calculated capacity for one battery is 9Ah. If connecting
to 100Ah batteries, then it’s equal to 11 in parallel (100Ah / 9Ah 11 sets).
