1. Introduction
1.1 General Introduction
DC UPS is the innovative power protection solution for delicate network devices
and telecom equipments. It equips with 12V/30Watts power capacity and internal
long 7 amp-hour backup battery. With universal input voltage design, this UPS
can be widely applied to the majority power system without AC input voltage
transfer. The advantages of DC output are saving the cost and space of the
additional power adapter connection. This feature further prevents the power loss
while transferring between DC to AC. The thoughtful wall-mount design allows
you to install DC UPS to diverse environments for maximizing your precious
space. DC UPS can be applied to any other device equipped with a compatible
DC input connector.
Features
Universal input range (80-260VAC) for global applications
12VDC (30W max.) output meets the major standard of network devices
Integrated hot-swappable to easy replacement battery allows battery
replacement without power interruption.
Microprocessor controlled for optimized operation and maximum reliability
Audible warning alarm with mute switch
Outputs for remote monitoring; On Battery, Replace Battery, Battery
missing and
Low battery alert
Wall mountable design for maximized flexibility
Multiple LED for AC power and battery status indications
Cold Start function capable

2. Safety Information
Internal battery voltage is 12V DC.
Incorrect battery connection or replacement creates risk of explosion.
Use only vender approved replacement batteries.
The DC UPS is intended for installation and operation in a controlled
environment (temperature controlled, indoor area free of conductive
contaminants). Refer to specifications in this manual.
No user-serviceable parts exist inside the unit. Refer repair issues only to
qualified personnel. Fuses or other parts must be replaced ONLY with
parts of identical types and ratings. Substitution of non-identical parts can
cause fire and other safety hazards.
All batteries used are sealed lead batteries. Batteries should be recycled.
The battery charges when it is connected to theAC power. The battery
will fully charge during the first eight hours of normal operation. Do not
expect full battery run capability during this initial charge period.
Connect the DC UPS to utility power for completely charging the internal
battery before starting the UPS.

4. Installation
4.1 Wire Connection
1. Remove the wire connection cover in the rear of the DC UPS. Keep the
cover will and reinstall the cover after all the wires are well-connected.
2. Plug IEC-LOCAL power cord into theAC input socket on the back of DC
UPS. Do not connect the AC power cord to utility outlet prior to this
process.
3. Connect DC UPS to network device.
3.1 If the telemetry cable is enclosed:
(1) Plug the telemetry cable into the 7-position connector
(2) Then place the cable between the two sticks for fixing the cable as
the following picture

EN
3.2 If the telemetry cable is not enclosed:
(1) Cut and strip the self-prepared cable leads, and then attach the
leads to the 7-position connector. Make sure that the correct
wire gauges are used for the safety (Please refer to “1.3 The 7
Pin Terminal Connecter Intro Table”)
(2) Plug the 7-conductor cable into the outlet of the DC UPS
(3)Then place the cable between the two sticks for fixing the cable
as the following picture
4. Close the wire connection cover
5. Connect the other end of the cable to the equipment

4.2 Wall-Mounting Instructions (Optional)
NOTE: Required hardware not included. Refer to the wall-mount instructions
for required tools and materials.
STEP 1: Make a mark on the wall in the 2 screw locations. The distance
between the centers of the 2 screws are 80cm.
STEP 2: Use a drill to drill holes where you made the mark on the wall. If you
drill into a wall stud, proceed to Step 5. If not, go to Step 4.
STEP 3: Insert anchor(s) into the hole(s).
STEP 4: Screw in the screw, leaving it protruding 1⁄4 inch from the wall.
STEP 5: Mount the DC UPS on the screw heads. Mounting holes

5. Operation
After the installation, you can start to operate the DC UPS and let your device
running under uninterruptible power supply environment as the following
procedure.
STEP 1: Plug theAC input power cord of the DC UPS into the wall outlet (The
utility power outlet)
STEP 2: Push the power on/off switch and you may hear a long beep buzzer
alarm for knowing the unit is properly turned on. You may turn the audible
alarm off by pushing the mute switch button to ON (Push down) position.
Self-test
Use the self-test to verify both the operation of the DC UPS and the condition
of the battery. Turn the mute switch ON then OFF, then ON and OFF again
within five seconds. During the Self-test, the DC UPS operates in backup
mode.
The DC UPS automatically conducts a Self-test in two conditions. 1) Operate
it and then the MCU detects battery voltage is higher than 13V. 2) Every 21
days while operating all the time.
Note: During the self-test, the DC UPS briefly operates on battery-backup
power. The green LED will flash for five minutes during the test period. If the
DC UPS passes the Self-test, it returns to online operation. If the DC UPS
fails the Self-test, it immediately returns to online operation and lights the red
LED. The loads are not affected. Recharge the battery overnight and perform
the self-test again. If the red LED is still on, the battery needs to be replaced.
