IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS
This manual has important instructions on installing and operating this device.
Before you attempt to unpack, install or operate this device, thoroughly read this manual.
CAUTION
•Even when the AC input power is disconnected, the battery can still energize hazardous live parts inside of it.
•To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, install the battery in a temperature- and humidity-controlled indoor area, free from
conductive contaminants. To find the acceptable temperature and humidity ranges, please refer to the device specifications.
•To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep the cover on. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the unit, including the
battery. Please contact us or our dealer for service.
•When replacing batteries, the replacement should have the same rating: Listed/Certified Valve Regulated Lead Acid
Battery, 12V, max. 10Ah.
•Before replacing batteries, remove conductive jewelry, such as chains, watches and rings, and use tools with insulated
handles. High energy passed through conductive materials can cause severe burns.
•Don’t dispose of batteries in a fire. Batteries may explode if improperly disposed. Recycle batteries in accordance with
local regulations.
•Don’t open or mutilate batteries. Battery material is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic.
•The UPS battery capacity can vary depending on storage time and temperature.
•The UPS battery is charging when it’s connected to utility power. The battery is charging during its first 24 hours of
normal operation. Don’t expect full battery capacity during this initial charging period.

Communication Signals
The UART communication signals of BB24V1U are isolated from its internal circuitry via photo-coupler to transmit
and receive signals.
“SIG RTN” (Signal Return) is a common return point for all communication signals. In a typical application, the
equipment digital ground should be connected to Signal Return.
