Quick Installation Guide
To get the UPS up and working immediately, please follow these instruc-
tions:
¨Unpack the UPS from the box. Save the packing material for future
use.
¨Place the UPS at a convenient location, within 6 feet of an electrical
outlet and near the equipment you want backed up. Be careful, it’s
heavy!
¨Plug the AC cord into a properly grounded, 3-prong, 120V/60Hz 15A
electrical outlet.
¨Plug in your equipment to the outlets provided at the rear of the UPS.
Please, no refrigerators or space heaters!
¨Remove the tape from the large power switch at the front of the UPS,
and turn the UPS on with the power switch. After an initial delay of
about 5 seconds, all your equipment hooked up to the UPS should be
ready to power up.
¨As a quick check, confirm that the top green bargraph shows between 4
and 6 light segments turned on, and that the middle red bargraph
shows at least 5 light segments turned on.
Congratulations! You’ve already taken a large step toward protecting your
valuable equipment from potential power problems. We suggest however
that you read the rest of this manual to derive the most benefit from your
investment in TSi Power’s UPS’s. If you’ve encountered any problems in
this quick installation procedure, please read on. You can also refer to the
troubleshooting guide on p. 14.

4 UPS-10000, 16000 & EXT-8000 Operating Instructions

About Your UPS
Normally, your TSi Power UPS-10000 and UPS-16000 Uninterruptible
Power Supplies work as constant voltage regulators and line conditioners,
filtering out noise and irregularities to provide pure sinewave power to your
equipment. However, when incoming AC voltage is too low or too high, or
when a power outage occurs, they provide the same pure uninterrupted
sinewave power from their internal batteries.
Some Features of your UPS-10000 and UPS-16000
• Automatic voltage regulation, isolation, line conditioning, common &
differential noise filtering with ferro-resonant transformer.
• Zero transfer time—resulting in uninterrupted pure sinewave output.
• Extended backup time possible with additional Battery Extension Units.
• Brownout & overvoltage protection.
• 3-way voltage surge protection by heavy duty Surge Suppressors.
• Two-tone audible alarm warning for AC failure and low battery.
• Overload protection at 110% of maximum output.
• Novell, UNIX, VMS, OS/2, Windows 3.11/95/NT, Mac OS & other
LAN compatible UPS alarm reporting.
• Optional true RS-232 alarm port on selected models.

that actual holdup times with
your equipment could vary.
About Your UPS 5

Operating Instructions
1) Place the UPS near a grounded (3 pronged) AC outlet, rated at 120V,
60Hz, 15A. Plug the power cord of the UPS into the AC socket. Note that
the UPS will only start up when AC power is present. Therefore the UPS
should be left on at all times when uninterrupted power is required.
2) Make sure that the POWER switch is OFF. Verify that the MODE
switch is in the NORMAL position. Plug in the equipment to be backed up
into the outlets in the rear of the UPS. Turn the equipment off for now.
CAUTION: Make sure that your equipment does not draw more the
maximum power rating of the UPS. For the UPS-10000, the maximum
power rating is 750W. For the UPS-16000, the maximum power rating is
1200W.
• A PC draws between 150W and 250W (without the monitor).
• A 14" color monitor draws about 75W.
• A big screen monitor (17" & up) draws between 100W and 200W.
• A laser printer draws between 600W and 1000W.
CAUTION: A laser printer should not be backed up by your UPS unless
absolutely necessary. A laser printer draws high pulsed power that may
interfere with sensitive equipment.
3) Turn on the POWER switch. You should immediately hear the UPS
“humming” as it is energized. The following indicators should now turn on:
• AC ON green light.
• BAT CHRG red light should be on or flickering.
• OUTPUT VOLTAGE green bar-graph should show between 4 and
6 light segments turned on.
• BATTERY VOLTAGE red bar-graph should show between 4 and 9
light segments turned on.
4) About 5 seconds after turning on the POWER switch, your equipment
will be supplied with power. As you turn your equipment on one by one,
you should see the OUTPUT LOAD yellow bar-graph turn on, with
increasing number of lights. Verify that all your equipment is working
properly.
5) The LED bar-graph indicators give a quick and complete overview of
¨
For the UPS-16000, a dedicated
AC socket (no other equipment on
the same line) is recommended.
¨
For a more complete and up-to-
date guide to power requirements,
please check the accompanying
insert, “Load Ratings for Typical
Equipment”. Also, you can usually
find the power consumption printed
in the rear of the equipment.
¨
CAUTION: It is recommended that
you not exceed 90% of your UPS’s
maximum output (8 yellow light
segments). This reduces the
likelihood that your equipment will
accidentally trigger the overload
shutoff circuitry of the UPS.
